Coming Home Next Week

We found out today that Oliver's anticipated discharge date will be Monday or Tuesday of next week.  He will come home with a nasogastric tube for feeding.  We're going to enlist Ezra to help with recording of the volume fed and weights once he comes home.  I'll be on vacation (or staycation, if that's in your lexicon) next week. 

Over the next few days, we'll receive training on his NG feeds.  He will be on a cardiopulmonary monitor when he goes home, but this is just a precaution because of the event that he had when he was 5 hours old. 

Oliver continues to take only small amounts via bottle. 

Evaluations are ongoing.  No unifying theory has been proven.

Thanks again for all of your support.
