"Wait (DC)"

When will I see you again?

As Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers once sang, "The waiting is the hardest part." So it proves for Mr Wilson, a man whose dog must undergo surgery. It's out of his control, so all Mr Wilson can do is bide his time and hope for the best. If he heard the soundtrack, 'Lost Without You' by Freya Ridings, the poor bloke would burst into tears.

Insurance company Petplan and director Molly Burdett spare him that at least, but it's clear how worried Mr Wilson is. He can’t eat, he can't sleep, and he can’t stand to not be in the same building as his dog. That's why he makes a beeline for the waiting room, just to feel close to his best friend.

We doubt brand ambassador Noel Fitzpatrick performs every surgery covered by the insurer, but he does helps the dog walk to his owner at long last. There are no guarantees in this sector, and it makes this particular reunion even more special.
