After receiving all his food last night orally from 6 PM onward, Quinlan has been cleared by the team to plan for discharge home on Monday. They will likely remove the NG-tube later today if he continues taking all his food via breast and bottle. This means the last thing keeping him here is his antibiotics, which he will finish up Monday morning. They will do the car seat test either tomorrow or Sunday (it should be done within 48 hours of discharge), and make sure that his parents have all the education they need to allow for a smooth transition home. There are certain vitamins that mom needs to purchase from CVS in the next few days and a few items that need to be assembled or moved in the house, and then his parents will be set to welcome him home!! Mom is trying to extend her leave at work till July, assuming she can work it out with HR. Apparently there may be issues with insurance coverage on an extended leave that need to be addressed.
