• Paul sustained such horrible injuries that doctors told Renee he wouldn't make it through the night. Paul did make it through the night, and was told that he would never walk or talk again.

• Paul defied all odds, and he is talking and walking, as his determination is strong, and the support of his wife is even stronger.

• But it shows the loyalty of a wife, and the determination of a husband and father, and the strength it takes to overcome obstacles.

What I liked about the show

• It brought together individuals’ collective strength to make other people’s dreams a reality.

• Social responsibility is the name behind the team in giving back to the community.

• Each episode ends with the participants' return to their homes, families and friends, showing the reactions of their loved ones, who have not been allowed to see the incremental changes during the participants' absence.

• The houses are customized to the families, with rooms reflecting the interests of, especially, the children, and special technology for any unusual medical conditions.

Since the accident, Paul Guinta was not able to come home. Now, for the first time in two years, he was able to walk through his front door and actually stay together as a family with his wife and kids.

Lessons from the Episode

• The one thing I will take away from this is that people truly want to help other people - no matter what they can do, they will do it.

• Extreme Home Makeover Show just like Thyrodo Corporation, its aim is to restore dignity to humankind.

• Few things help an individual more than to place responsibility upon him
