So first, on a selfish note, a Festivus wishlist has been crossposted on facespace.
More relevant news, my dad got his traecheotomy tube out today. While he now has a zombie bite like gaping hole in his neck (subsequently gauze dressed), he's already feeling better. His talking has gotten to closer to normal and he's hacking up less phlegm, a major improvement since the constant coughing has been a part of why his throat became and remains utterly and completely raw inside.
With any luck his throat and tastebuds will heal around the same time, preferably in time for us to go to Vegas and take advantage of his 3 free nights at the Sahara with the free limo ride to/from the airport and the other freebies as well.
