**UPDATE** Not what we wanted to hear but they discovered that there was an arterial perforation near the liver. It walled itself off and Riley is completely stable but they are not going to proceed. They are bringing in an Arterial Specialist to take a look at everything and make sure all is well. For now they are admitting him into the ICU only because they want someone monitoring him more frequently than if they admitted him into a regular room. Not because he is in any peril, simply precautionary. They want him to rest and recover. We will give him plenty of time before we look at trying again. Were disappointed that they werent able to get it done but we knew that this was one of the possible outcomes and trust that they know whats best for Riley.
