Rory also shared a few photos of his 40-year-old wife playing with their little girl, who was born with Down syndrome. In the pics, Indiana is wearing a new outfit her dad bought for her, as "she has grown out of most of her clothes" and the weather is "getting colder" since Joey entered hospice care at the family's home in Alexandria, Indiana.
