Hello everyone,
Hope everyone is ok. Do any of you watch the Good Doctor? My wife started watching it a few years ago and I wasn't really interested but I sat down with here and watched. After about 10 minutes I was hooked. What a hell of a show. Well written and hits home.

When I was growing up my Mom worked for the State as a Nurse and Care worker for the mentally challenged. As a young boy I use to go with my Mom sometimes when I was allowed to meet some of the Kids who lived at the Hospital and some where left by their parents. During Christmas time a few would cry for their parents and they wouldn't show up. It broke my heart and basically I cried with them. I had my mom buy presents for them from me so I could give them something on Christmas.

Anyway the Good Doctor is a damn good show.

    Normally don't watch these type of shows. Wife is a nurse of 20+ yrs and the tv medical shows are often so far removed from anything close to reality. May give it a shot if well written and not the same ole garbage.
    Yep, my name really is Bob.
