The waiting room is a place of meetings and partings. Here destinies are decided and diagnoses are made. Here representatives of various circles of society collide with each other. Here life is in full swing and peace (in another sense of the word) is only a dream for everyone. Here, truth triumphs over ignorance, and life tries to triumph over death and often succeeds. There are no bad and good, kind and evil, successful and unsuccessful, here there are only doctors and patients (relatives of patients do not count, because there is no information about them written in case histories). Everything here is the same as in life, and, at the same time, everything is different. Give up hope, everyone who enters here, because instead of hope you will receive a prognosis, which is certainly attached to each diagnosis... Stories included in this book, began in different places and under different circumstances. But they all became part of the history of mankind, which is written in emergency rooms, and this unites them. This book is not about the Emergency Room, but about the paths that bring people here and, of course, about love. The book contains obscene language
