I HAVE NEVER SEEN SOMETHING SO REAL AN EVERYTHING ABOUT IT WAS AS REALISTIC AS CAN BE AN THE ACTING LOOKS LIKE NOT ACTING !SIDEWALK COUNSELOR WAS VERY KIND THOUGHTFUL AN NOT PUSHY BUT LIKE A VERY CARING HUMAN BEING THAT WAS WELCOMING A NEWCOMMER TO THERE TOWN OR HOME
AN EVERYTHING WAS DONE IN LOVE AN KINDNESS AN NO ANGER NOR DISTRUCTION OR DISRESPECT EVEN TO THE LADY HEADING FOR THE BUTCHERY !!! THEN THE FATHER OF THE CHILD ABOUT TO BE ABORTED STOPT FOR A MOMENT TO SEE AN READ WHAT THE COUNSELOR HAS TO SAY IN HIS PAMPHLET BUT LIKE AT THAT MOMENT IT WAS ALL SO REAL ! AN I WAS SO TOUCHED BY THIS AN THAT FATHER YE COULD TELL AT LEAST TOOK MOMENTS TO READ THE PAMPHLET AN THEN TALKED TO THE “LADY AN SHE MUST OF REALIZED THAT THERE WERE OTHER OPTIONS AN WITH THE GATHER OF THIS BABY READING IT AN TELLING HER MUST OF MADE HER FEEL THAT IF HE WAS THAT CONCERNED THEN MABE SHE SHOULD NE TOO 
AN I THINK SHE DIDNT FEEL ALONE ANYMORE IN THIS DESITION AN WITH HIM BEING THERE AN A STREET COUNSELOR THERE TO DIRECT THEM TO ANOTHER CHOICE THEY CAN CONSIDER INSTEAD ONLY ONE CHOICE! AN EVEN MORE FROM THE FACT THAT THE TWO SUPPOTED ONE ANOTHER AN WAS EVEN WANTING TO READ ON ANOTHER WAY < ANOTHER CHOICE ON THIS MADE HER LOOK AN TRY TO SEE IT ANOTHER WAY

AN WHEN THE COUNSELOR WITH OPEN ARMS SHOOK THERE HANDS IN LOVE AN WILLINGNESS TO SEEK OTHER ALTURNITIVES TO THIS TAT WOULD BE A BETTER WAY AN ROUTE TO GO FOR ALL THREE CONCERN IT MADE THE LADY FEEL AT EASE TOO AN MORE CALM AN SECURE ! THEN THEY WERE MORE WILLING TO CHECK IT OUT AT THE OTHER CLINIC THAT SAVES LOFE AN WILL STAND BY THEM IN THE BETTER DESISTION OF KEEPING THEE CHILD! WHEN THEY CAME OUT AN DROVE AWAT FRON THE BUTCHER CLINIC < YE COULD SEE THE MAN AN LADY HAD NOT BITTER FACES AS THEY DID IN BEGINING BUT MORE SOFTER GENTLER SMILES INSTEAD ! 
AN EVEN THE STREET COUNSELOR FELT A BIG BURDEN LIFTED OFF THEM AN A HEAVY SADNESS FROM EVEN HIS OWN HEART FOR BEING THERE AT THE RIGHT TIME AN DOING ALMIGHTY GODs WILL ON SAVING ANOTHER LIL BABIES LIFE

I GIVE THIS WAAAAYYY OVER EVEN 100% AMEN AMEN 
"LETS SEE MORE PLEASE AMEN & AMEN ! ++++++ <3 ++++++
The story idea was excellent. It was creative to use the testimony of a handicapped person and a sidewalk counselor–all original thinking. I would urge the producer to study video and audio technology more closely.
