The nurses have changed shifts and you wait for the doctor to arrive with the latest update.
Someone knocks gently on the door.
The door opens and a person is standing there with a smile offering you food. I have coffee, juice, bagels, cream cheese and fresh fruit. This person offering breakfast is from Parent to Parent of Vermont. The Monday morning breakfast cart is a collaborative effort between the Child Life Program at the hospital and Parent to Parent. We bring around the breakfast cart because we recognize that getting out of the room to nurture yourself may be difficult.
