I choose 'what'.   I believe the "Waiting Room" is purgatory.  In purgatory
God is absent but angels need not be.  We of course see at least one angel 
(Laura's guardian angel) there.  Lucifer (the fallen angel) would be another.  
One more would be Cooper's guardian angel (the giant).  

Laura's guardian angel is a quite classical one.  She puts up with quite 
a lot before she gives up trying to help Laura.  Yet when Laura has gone 
through enough pain and suffering in purgatory, she returns.

The abandonment of Laura's angel is symbolized when the angel fades in the 
picture.  This happens due to Laura's choosing.  It's when she decide's to
let Bob enter her.

I remember an angel helping someone in FWWM also.  But I can't remember the
situation.  Does anyone else?
