Did anyone see last night's episode?
It's always so hard for me to see children suffering because of an allergy/disease/condition, but to see how a big family can make a sacrifice for one of their own is simply amazing.
And I don't know why, but I still get goosebumps everytime I hear "I Hope You Dance".
Props to ABC--the F250 and the 2005 Mustang were saweeeeeet!

This is the best show on tv--- it's heartwarming to watch--and it makes me cry every week. Even my 6yr old sits quietly to watch, that never happens!

I loved last night's episode. I cried when the new contractor promised scholarships to both sons.
I was amazed however that the parents of Lucy Ali and her sister-in-law never took in the family of three. Yes I know I don't know the WHOLE story but it seems to me that between all of the family, Lucy and her sons could have lived better than that attic. 
Oh well, all's well that ends well. Lucy's new bedroom was beautiful. Good job, TY!!

I found it very sad. I wodner if she paid the contractor everything up front? Either way it makes me very mad when people take advantage of someone else, especially when that someone else has done so much to help others.

Don't forget tonight is the special "How'd they do that" episode for the Ali house.
I swear, I love this show.

I watched the special last night and I think I cried more when I saw the determination of the contractor willing to go to bat for the family.
If I lived in the NYC area, Sal and Allure would be my contractors just on GP for the heart and tenacity and love they displayed for the ALI family.

Tonight's family is AMAZING!! 2 deaf parents raising a son who is both blind and autistic. So very amazing. I can tell this will be a tear jerker episode.

You know the family is special when you see Ty cry.
This will be a great 2 hours.

BEST EP EVER!!! I cried from the backyard on. YAAAAAY for Stefan getting the $50K scholarship. They did an amazing job making the house more user friendly for the family with the computers and the technology.
