I too work in the field. 40 years. Patients (clients) are different from family. I helped my ex-mother in law get my psychotic ex-wife into the hospital years ago on an Emergency Detention Warrant. After she was hospitalized I detached. But not until she was out of danger.

I disagree, yet still respect your opinion and dedication. No one goes into the Mental Health Business to make money. Thanks for all you do.

Thanks to climate change, Denver doesn't have winter anymore either, :-( But I guess old white people choose either desert or swamp. I'll still go with desert.

Dominic, thank you for the lovely short video--it lifts one's spirits. Meanwhile, back in Swampland, I've been calling the Department of Justice every day and leaving a pithy message for Mr. Sessions about breaking up families (remind you of the good old days, Jefferson Beauregard?): 202-353-1555

Chipping away, chipping away.
