I am curious what a "unicorns and rainbows" response to someone bleeding out would actually look like? I know people of varying degrees of empathy in my life who would all call 911 and do their best to help someone bleeding out. I had two peers in grad school who immediately fainted at the sight of blood but that is not due to a lack of empathy; it's a physiological response which they could not control no matter how hard they tried. Same as folks who vomit when they see someone else vomit. Or even hear or smell someone vomiting.
