Waiting

The secondary school I work at have these inspirational quotes over every door. I think I’ve blipped one before. My hours are being gradually reduced until I finish here completely at the end of term. The student I work with here is doing really well and doesn’t need a tutor anymore. I’ll be really sad to leave and will miss my student a lot.

My dad has been in Addenbrookes Hospital since 7am waiting for an operation to fix his double hernia and I’ve been waiting all afternoon and evening for a call to go and collect him. He went down for his op at about 2.30 and it’s now 8.30 and we still haven’t heard anything. Mum and I are beginning to wonder if he’s coming out tonight after all.
