    Default Ty Pennington needs to buy me Kleenex

    The past 2 weeks of Extreme Home Makeover I have cried through the entire show! Tonight was a 2 hour show about a family with deaf parents, one son who is blind and autistic and a 14 year old son who has had to help with everything since he was old enough.

    Not only did they completely redo the house, including Braille labels everywhere for the younger son but they arranged for a $50,000 scholarship for the 14 year old to any colege he wants to attend when the time comes.

    I am out of Kleenex, my nose is red and if I lie down I will drown in snot

    I cry at that show also. I think the one I cried at the most was the one where the lady whose daughter needed the bone marrow transplant had Ty and them try to locate the family of the donor and do their house. Then in the end they got to meet one another. Man I bawled and bawled over that one.

    I thought that was an excellent show tonight! I cried too!

    I love that the guys on the show are just as emotionally moved as the ladies.

    I was a blubbering idiot! It was the nicest thing I have seen on tv in a long time. What a wonderful family and they were so happy. I cried and cried. My dh left the room...pretty sure he was crying to .

    I was crying too. When the 14yo son said that his dad never showed much emotion and here he was crying throughout most of the interviews, I just couldn't get over that. Truly a great show!!

    The most PERFECT part of the show was when the boy was laughing and giggling on his new swing...definite tear jerker..

    This is our favorite show of all times!!!! I was so moved by the love that family showed for each other and that the oldest son, who really was the family's lifeline, will now be able to go to college knowing that his way is paid and that his family will be safe.

    I cried that the parents wanted a smaller bed so they could snuggle more. Man alive, the whole show made me cry.

    Wasn't that a wonderful show? On Sunday nights, I flip back and forth between Home Makeover and Cold Case, but did see all of Home Makeover this time. I just love what they do for people. The design team are real

    Come to think of it, my house could use a Ty makeover. Sigh.
