The third user wrote, "This is so sweet! We love this video and are so touched by Delilah!"

The fourth user wrote, "This is amazing! I've sat and argued with people all day that most people are inherently kind and just, especially if you stop trying to look for all the bad in the world. Everything is "oh, the government is trying to do this to me, to us, etc etc etc" and to sit and think that everyone who works in government is just sitting there waiting to screw everyone over is absurd! Thank you for posting this and showing the world what a wonderful it is! Best of luck to Delilah! I have faith that she's going to come through this."
