As tempting as it may be to run away from emotionally-difficult situations, it's important we confront them head-on.

- Impossible-sounding things are possible in hospitals — however, there are times when we hit dead ends. In these moments, it's important to not run away, but to confront what's happening head-on.

- For a lot of us, one of the ways to give meaning to terrible moments is to see what you can learn from them.

- Sometimes certain information can "flood" us in ways that aren't helpful, and it's important to figure out what types of data you are able to take in — process — at certain times.
