Poor Hansen - his mother rejected him. . . but he still grew up to be a top racehorse.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just hope the green dye someone used to create Hulk the Bulldog is safe....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So I think my response to everyone today is going to be, "Fuck off" and/or, "Are you fucking KIDDING ME??" I'd better hide in my office.

msbelle, I am so sorry that there is this much stress for you and poor Mac.
I know that 72 hour stay is par for the course, and in many child-oriented psych hospitals, often the parents/guardians are asked not to see the child for the first day, so that (in cases of abuse, which your case is SO NOT) the child can have some breathing room and the caregivers can try to get the story from the child without adult interference....but I haven't heard about an arbitrary no-visitors day.
And I second Matt's thoughts about how much of a wake-up call staying in a psych ward can be. You may recall my 72 hours in one in 2001, and the lack of freedom was horrifying, even though I knew the reasons I was under observation, and had the intelligence to get out, get out GET OUT.
One of my best friends is an art therapist for troubled youth -- she's in MO, but I could ask her if she knows anyone in your area, if you like. She has lots of contacts. (I wish you lived closer, because she is fantastic.)
All my love and best wishes to the both of you.
