Many of us assume that once our child is on a waiting list, we've done what we need to do.
I know I felt that way.
There was a sense of relief.
A sense that something was moving forward.
But over time, I learned something important:
Waiting doesn't remove the stress.
Sometimes it changes the kind of stress we're carrying.
Because while we're waiting:
We're getting older
Our health is changing
Our children are changing
And the future keeps getting closer
That's why I believe we need to keep planning, even while we wait.
