The room is colourful. Everyone is in their socks on a play mat, looking at the four year old.
“I think we’re done with our assessment for now, the physio and Speech and Language therapist will be in to chat with Jamie in just a moment.”
—-awkward mental search for small talk——-
“So Jamie… did Santa visit?”
Jamie shakes his head, and hides his face in mothers coat. We all look at mum.
“No Santa didn’t come, we forgot to open the door to the chimney.”
Everyone in the room is shocked. More shocked than if she had just struck the child in front of us.
