Dr. Everson also goes on to list such as attention and difficulty focusing; ADHD, and time management issues. She lists resources people can use such as readings, videos and visual metaphors to help people understand coping mechanisms. She says a lot of these issues can happen to any child such as those on the spectrum, attention issues, everyday children and can happen most often with sensory overload, which children are exposed to everyday. Sometimes it is even beneficial to understand the buildup to a breakdown and make sure you can calm yourself down before a meltdown. This can apply to adults as well to motivate yourself to keep going with a lot on your plate. They touch upon medicating as well such as proper medicating and over medicating a child and if it works or not.

Brenda goes on to tell Paolo that while the loss of her son was tragic, she had to keep going on for the sake of her family. She also talks about how one of the best ways to cope is to find a purpose and whichever situation you find yourself in, you can always find a passion to pursue in life. She goes on to describe ways to heal and cope by not forgetting a lost loved one, but to embrace them and be open to sharing their story in order to help others who may be in a similar situation. Brenda then talks about the research CTE Hope has done and their correlations between concussions and enzymes that might help prevent permanent brain trauma in regards to proper healing.
