@ProfCrash: -- it's a "guy thing". Stupid, counterproductive, and annoying, like most guy things. "he doesn't want to be an inconvenience". It would be a LOT more inconvenient if something happened and you need to arrange for Little Man and hit the road in a hurry. Plus hospital patients are MUCH better served if they have an advocate with them. Surgery patients are not in a condition to fend for themselves, and can't adequately express problems.
Vent here. Best you can do. And be there for him.
