Monday, May 31


Today we traveled across Michigan down to Indianapolis. Nothing unusual except we ran into a couple of rainstorms. I was driving, so slowed to about 40 mph with the flashers going. We managed to go around the first storm only to come upon another one a few miles down the road. It is not a pleasant thing to attempt to drive when one cannot see out the window except for the taillight in front of you.


 
When we got about an hour from Indy, we called Stephen who was coming from the south side about 30 minutes ahead of us. So when we get to Dan and Charlene's house, Stephen is already there. He also has a new 2010 Honda Civic, blue in color. He bought it just after Easter and did not mention it to us. He said the other car died on his way to visit Indy around Easter, so he turned around and decided to get the new wheels.


He decided to spend the night at his adopted grandparents across town. Mr. Main is not doing well at all and is actually dying. He has shortness of breath and has passed out more than once, and is also retaining fluid but the doctors cannot find out why or where it is. Later Monday night, Charlene's mom calls and said that her Dad had passed out again for a couple of minutes. They decided to take him to the doctor on Tuesday. It was really good that Stephen was there to help, we were told many times later. Charlene decided not to go over and wait for the morning call from mom.
