I remember when my mom had the Trach for a couple of days after her surgery and she was frighten of it also. If I am not mistaken The doctor ordered her on Propofol Sedation until it was removed. I remember the sedation wearing off one night and she panicked and tried to pull it out. Hopefully your father doesn't have the Trech for to long.
Good Luck Heidi
