Crash Brings Strangers Together in Hospital Waiting Room
In Concord California four Yuba City choir girls injured in the state’s worst school bus crash formed close bonds with other parents in Mt. Diablo hospital waiting areas. By Thursday the four were listed in good condition while memorial services were planned for the fallen. Parents shared fear for their children’s news and faced the hard task of telling them the extent of the tragedy. The parents lived near Yuba City yet stayed at the hospital, gathering in a new wing nicknamed Little Yuba City while their children received care.
