The Parent in the Waiting Room

The Parent in the Waiting Room

For the parent holding everything together while their child is ill.

This isn’t a book written about medical parents from the outside. It was written by a mum who has sat beside hospital beds, questioned frightening predictions, celebrated birthdays on wards, asked for day passes and learned that parents are experts in their own child too.

Across 183 honest and gently written pages, this book explores the parts of parenting a child with chronic illness that people rarely see

This is not a medical guide, a workbook or another demand to remain positive. There is no homework and no suggestion that a bubble bath will solve systemic chaos.

It is companionship.

A chair beside the parent drinking terrible hospital tea, watching the door and quietly carrying more than anyone can see.

You don’t have to explain. I know.

A 183-page digital book from Grandmother Moon & Me Rememberings.
