Members shared deeply personal 'survival kits' of nonmedical things that keep them grounded, with responses full of warmth, creativity, and faith. A recurring theme was the power of connection, whether through a partner, daughter, mother's wisdom, or God, alongside calming places like bodies of water, quiet rooms, and cozy couches. Several members also found strength in creative outlets like music, watercolor painting, singing, and comedy movies, as well as cherished memories that remind them of their resilience.
