Yes, it certainly was not fun to have the drains, but honestly I don't like the idea of that crap being absorbed back into my body. I know it doesn't matter and is ok, but I would just rather all that fluid and blood come out.
I have never heard of someone in the U.S. staying overnight in the hospital. Is this Dr. Kim's standard protocol or do you have a medical history that would warrant that "extra watching"? I'm also curious to know if your insurance paid for the home health care nurse, too?

Thanks, Dapper!
Staying overnight in the hospital is Dr. Kim's standard protocol. Given that I had no one caring for me, or helping me when I returned home, yes, my home health care nurse is being paid for, by my insurance, and he is a real gem. He will be visiting me once a week.
