[QUOTE="slsh, post: 174253, member: 8"] We had a visit from DCFS several years ago. They showed up the same day the report was made by school (ridiculous situation - long story but utterly ridiculous). We got our letter stating we were cleared within a week or two. While it's absolutely nervewracking to contemplate having the involvement of DCFS, I wouldn't sweat it too much. I'd be surprised if ER doctor makes a report, but even if he does - you've taken all the appropriate steps. I got a call about an hour before the guy showed up - and was in the middle of a *massive* housecleaning. Furniture moved all out of place, carpets up, etc. The house was just a jumble and I was seriously frantic that he would take all the kids because the place looked so disorganized. Thankfully, he didn't bat an eye. He talked to thank you at school, then came here, interviewed us and the other kids, and that was that. I did have psychiatrist and therapist phone numbers, and several admit/discharge dates, and gave him all the information I could. He was a very nice guy and even though I was scared to death about what could happen (DCFS fear!), he was a totally reasonable and very non-threatening guy. I would think if a report had been filed, you would have heard by now. It will work out okay - you did what you needed to and are getting her treatment. [/QUOTE]
