I need your prayers girls. UPDATE #1

I had to take my grandfather to the emergency room with my mom last night. He was bleeding from his rectum. My grandpa called his doctor and they told him to go to ER because he is on blood thinner medicine so he doesn't get clots or another heart attack. We were worried but we thought it might just be hemmorroids. Well the doctor looked at him in ER and he said he had a hemmorroid but that is not what is causing the bleeding. He has to get a colonoscopy and of course we are still waiting for the doctor to come perform it. My mom is there with him now. I just don't want it to be bad news. I hope the doctor is wrong and it is a hemmorroid. I could use everyones prayers. As I get closer to the wedding I was so afraid something would happen to one of my grandparents. I couldn't think of them not being there or something happening. I am so afraid right now. I wish the doctor would see him already and just fix whatever the problem is. Again please say some prayers Thanks girls!

Update #1:
I just talked to my mom. She was able to get there in time to see the gastro doctor and he said it can still be a large hemmerroid that they can't see or feel that is all the way at the top of his colon. My grandpa is on Plavix and Aspirin which can make it bleed a lot more. They are going to do the colonoscopy tomorrow. These doctors take forever..haha I know they need to prepare him though. They still want to rule out colon cancer which we are afraid it could be but as long as the doctor said it can still be a large internal hemmrroid I will take it. Thanks for your prayers girls. They are helping so far. Keep them coming. :)

I can not even remember. And I was going over all his medication with my mom last night. He is on about 7 or 8 different medications that I can't remember if he is on that or if it sounds familiar.
