My Dad Almost Went to Las Vegas

A friend of his needed to get out there to pick up a car that someone had left to her in their will. They would have flown out there, then driven back...it's like a 3 or 4 day drive! Normally that'd be okay, but my dad has two compression fractures in his spine, and he can't sit for long periods of time. Thankfully, he came to his senses and decided not to go. Perhaps if they could have stayed longer, perhaps take in all of the Las Vegas scene and some of the impressive Las Vegas real estate, allowing him to recover from the flight...maybe he could have gone. But, I doubt it. Makes me sad for him because he has the will and the means...but his body doesn't have the way.
