Can a girl get a few clicks around here?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-_jbU-jqnM

This is a video entry for a scholarship that was posted by one of my "friends" at mothertalkers - she's been through hell this year including infant surgery and her brother falling from a three story building and breaking his back. As she says, if she told you the story without pictures you'd call her a liar.

They are a wonderful family and if she wins this scholarship it would make a huge difference in their lives. Please take a little time and view the video and vote for her.

thanks, k

Hey, I just tried and it said the video is no longer available.

Hmmm... I'm kind of technically stupid so I'll see if I can figure out what it's doing. Thanks for trying!

I was able to watch with no problem - could have been a temporary glitch. I voted/rated her at 5 stars. Holy wow - what a story. I truly hope she wins. Let her know that we are pulling for her.

Wow. That's crazy and horrible. I voted for her.

It worked for me. A vote is the same as a YouTube rating. You can also get to it from:
