I'd really like to grab hold of this topic and actually re-define the term life support to cover all times a person required support throughout their lives.

Support when dealing with the death of a loved one.
Support when dealing with a serious medical condition.
Support when training for that big event and actually getting there.

This may not be what you were looking for but these things came to mind when I thought of support.
