B Natural answer
Years ago, my older brother late at night when I had a bad stomach pain. I was scared and didn't want to go alone, but he got up right away and said he would handle it. After the doctor checked me, he waited in the hallway, bought me tea, and kept asking if I needed anything. The next few days, he also by text and phone. That kind of support meant a lot because he was not just helping once; he was staying involved. It really during a stressful time.
