Did you stay one night at the hospital, or did you go home the

evening after surgery?

planning for oct 12

for surgery

I could have went home the night of the the surgery but Dr. R. felt it would

be best if I stayed for the entire night, I went home the next morning at

around 10:00a.m. I had already paid for an entire night at the hospital

anyways.
