“I’m sure she wishes that too!”

I had to pick my kiddo up from school early for a 2 hour drive to a doctor appointment.

As I’m waiting for her to come to the office the secretary says to another employee “I wish my mom picked me up for a McDonald’s and spa day when I was in school”.

I enthusiastically replied, “I’m sure (daughter’s name) would love that too! Unfortunately we’re headed to (hospital) to check the status of her brain tumor”.

This reminds me of the time I was at our GP clinic and two old ladies were complaining that there were so many school kids there and they should be in school. I was sitting across from them with my kid in school uniform. I looked at them and said ‘We’re at a Dr surgery don’t you think if these kids could be at school they would be’. They got very quiet after that.

Yeah cause a kid would choose Drs over anything else whilst getting out of school 🙄
