This last paragraph, with all its rewrites, is a mess to track deletions and additions! She was adding and then deleting the additions, and I tried to show that, but it ended up being unreadable I thought. I separated each sentence part with additions/deletions & tried to decipher what the ending paragraph should look like, to capture her meaning, and put that there instead of showing all the changes. If you want to see them all, the actual document shows it much better. I think her first attempt was just fine, to be honest!
But, since I have the file saved with the adds/dels, I will go back & put them all in if you want me to do so.
Thank you for your help, in the review process we will deal with any issues.
I transcribed most of the original, as there were so many additions that were sentence fragments and repeats of statements. I believe the original points are covered.
