Overall, I am glad you had a good time. Vegas can be a very daunting city even to someone who is athletic! It's a 24/7 city that never sleeps!

People, especially family, who don't live with pain don't understand what it's like to live with it all the time. Trying to explain it to them is sometimes a full time job. One way would be to tell them to imagine having the worst toothache they've ever had in their life, multiplied by 1000, all the time. It never goes away. I don't know many people who've never had a toothache.

Big hugs Ali for tolerating your dad.
