The stress of the last few weeks alone of this is ridiculous, I KNOW I did the right thing, and I would do it again, even if it meant facing these consequences again.
We SHOULD be protected against making these calls. I don't think any of us take that responsibility lightly.
Will your liability insurance assist with the costs of this?
I am soo sorry you are going through this.
I followed what you have posted about the family and I can tell you that you definitely did the right thing (I know you know but sometimes it's nice to hear the reinforcement
) and I've been in a similar situation and would also do it again if I had too.
Hang in there and if there is ANYTHING I can do to help, even just offering an ear, let me know!!
