Sending positive thoughts that your staples and drains were removed.

Hi,
Today my staples were removed but the drain must stay in for at least another week maybe 10 days. It’s ok. I’m still draining quite a bit and I had an abscess, fistula and infection So, that being said, I’ll wait as long as necessary for this drain to be removed. I’ll see my surgeon again in a couple of weeks. Thanks Jodi for all the positive thoughts and vibes. Leslie
