Today we found out some great news. Jacob will be discharged on Monday. He will be going back to St Mary's to complete his physical therapy. This is a huge step on his journey home. This 96 day stay cost $993,600. This is just for the room and does not include the three procedures, MRI, medicine and various ultrasounds. I only hope that you other hypoplastic parents reading this have good insurance and better luck with all of the complications. It is the complications that have really extended his stay. I couldn't imagine paying for all of this without insurance. In total, we are just over the two million dollar mark.
That being said, I am really looking forward to next week and the hope of an early Christmas present.
