¡¿Going home on Wednesday?!

When one of Ryan's doctors came into see him this morning, he told us that they'd be speaking with his therapists & trying to figure out when exactly he'll be discharged. A few hours later, a case worker spoke with us & explained that they're shooting for Wednesday! I'm not sure what all needs to happen in order for that to come through, but we're very hopeful that he'll be released then. I've already made him an appointment with a local primary care doctor for Monday, so that's already in place. It's probably just a matter of making sure that Ryan gets all of the equipment he needs - which may be a little difficult because his Medicaid is still spending. We're both so excited, though, & he can't wait to get out!

Edit: We spoke with his occupational & physical therapist & they said that the little bit of uncertainty as to his release date is because they doctors are trying to decide what medications he needs to stay on. They said that the equipment he needs (wheelchair, shower bench, etc.) can get ordered very quickly. We're just going to be paying out of pocket for everything until Medicaid comes through & then they should take over & reimburse us.

Things are looking good! =D
