There are a few things that virtually all parents who have a child (or children) with disabilities have in common, and one of them is this: we spend time in waiting rooms.
A great deal of time.
Ugly waiting rooms full of uncomfortable chairs covered with institutional mustard-colored vinyl. Beautiful waiting rooms, softly lit and filled with home-like furnishings. Waiting rooms that are well-stocked with clean toys and waiting rooms that contain nothing but two ancient copies of Golf Digest.
I don’t care what they look like because I have learned to love waiting rooms.

I hadn’t thought to look at waiting rooms that way. I’ll have to look with new eyes next time I’m sitting there waiting.

You are absolutely right Adrienne. But I am happy that you are loving those waiting rooms. It would be more fun if you find parents there to who are fun to talk to.
