Shayna's Story

1. What is the role of the reporter's segues in this story?
The reporter's segues give more information to the viewer, little details such as how far she dropped, how long she was in the hospital, etc. The segues also helped move the story along so it didn't get too stuck on one particular topic/idea.

2. Why do you think she did not include a stand-up in this story?
I think she didn't include a stand-up in this story because it would have taken away from the initial feel and focus of what the story is about- I think it was a good choice, too.

3. What was the biggest surprise in the story?
For me, the biggest surprise was that Shayna was pregnant while she fell, and that the baby was born perfectly fine.

4. How does the story end with hope?
The story ends with hope in regards to both the baby and Shayna being healthy and okay, that they pulled through with it. Another thing that added to the feeling was Shayna's quotes about believing in miracles and God.
