Last post was thursday not because I forgot to post, but because I have been very busy with playing catch-up after getting back my computer. I was busy finishing a video called Edel’s Choice for my client, Carrick Ministries, and trying to meet their deadline despite the computer problems. I made it, just barely.
It was a tough job to work on because of the extremely emotional content of the video. A young woman who was drugged and raped goes public, giving her full story from the night it happened through the anguish she suffered, and finally to the birth of the child that resulted and her decision to keep the baby.
Obviously the clients have a pro-life message in the video. That is entirely the reason they wanted to make the video. But whatever your own opinion on the pro-choice / pro-life debate happens to be, you can’t help but be touched by Edel’s story.
If you want learn more about this young woman, a local news station followed her through much of the pregnancy and beyond. The video below is from that television station’s news story, and it runs about five minutes. It’s worth watching, if for no other reason than to appreciate the impact that rape can have on a woman’s life.
