We got some bad news while in Michigan that Brian 's mom was in the hospital . Although she said she was fine ( she was fine , but still had to hear it from the doctors ) and she did not want us to end our trip , we started to head back to Columbus . While on the way back Dad called and asks us if we wanted to attend the Red , White , and BOOM celebration in downtown on the 3rd with my cousin . This has been a tradition in Columbus for that last twenty years or so .

Question: Why did they end their trip early ?
Answer: Brian 's mom was going to pass away soon .None of the above choices .They wanted to be in the hospital with Brian 's mom .They needed to pick up Brian 's mom from the hospital .
