ABSTRACT:
A garment worn by a user has an inner wearer-facing surface and an outer surface. An inner pocket is attached to the inner surface below the chest of the user, the inner pocket having a rounded bottom, an open top, and outwardly flared sides. A drain system has a drain bulb snugly received within the inner pocket and a tube with one end attached to the bulb and the opposing end indwelled within the wearer. One or more straps are located on the inner surface, the straps each forming a closed loop such that the tube passes through the loop. An outer pocket is attached to the outer surface of the garment and overlays the inner pocket so that a single stitch line attaches both the inner pocket and the outer pocket to the garment.
