Final Idea After my presentation and feedback I have decided to continue with the idea of a documentary about the impact of an assistance dog on someone with cerebral palsy's life.

I also want to do it to show just how helpful an assistance dog can be, and how much they can change a persons life. I want to make sure that the documentary focuses on ending positively, showing how much an assistance dog can impact a persons life for the better.
