I have been following your posts and your mom would have had a very hard time making it back to NC and then just turning around and driving back to TX. The stress would have been unbearable for her. Car rides and ill people do not mix! I'm glad your "angel" came through. Your step-dad did right by taking a "short" break by getting some sleep before continuing. The gas breaks and bathroom breaks don't give you the energy or drive a person needs to get to their destination in "a hurry". I have done a lot of cross country driving during my time and a 5 hour stop at a rest area does wonders.
