Whichever choice makes you stop doubting yourself. I am not picky.

Cognitive empathy is objectively knowing why people feel something. Emotional empathy is when you can tap into emotional state, akin to feeling their emotions in shared emotional experience.

It does not give me willies.

[ There's a pause where Hilbert decides what to say before he settles on, ]

I was in hospital for large amount of time when I was child. Very bad, was in and out for multiple years. Do you know worst thing I heard at the time? "I am so sorry this is happening to you." Sorry would not make treatment work faster. Sorry would not put money into research trials. Sorry only made people who could not do anything feel better. What mattered most was not "I am so sorry," what mattered is "here is what we are doing today." I know I am not only person on Barge to feel this way.

I would not ask you to take up infirmary post if you only had medical knowledge. It is combination of your medical knowledge and previous actions on Barge that made me ask you.

Perfectly understandable. After all, this is not decision to be made on whim.

No need for thanks. You have proven yourself in my mind already. Do not sell yourself short.
