Drains: the good, the bad, and...the gross

I've been irritated the past few days. These drains are annoying me and I'm not sure the volume will go down enough to have them removed on Tuesday. The good thing is that they are preventing fluid build up in my surgical areas. I'm all for not having to deal with that! The bad thing is they hurt! The tubes are stitched in place but they still move around a bit and that's painful. I accidentally bumped one today and YEEOUCH! The tubes are a little smaller than a straw and are flexible but you don't want to accidentally pull on one! The gross things are clots and other floaty things that come out of the drain. Enough said about that.

Anyway, I'm still crazy happy that I'm on the road to finally finishing up the surgeries and reconstruction! Woohoo!
