I caught a 9/11 special, a replay of an earlier show where Jessica Lynch followed through on a promise, through this show, to take care of Lori Piestewa's family. Incredible show.

I saw that show, too. It was really great! I definitely had tears flowing on that one - Lori seemed like an incredible woman with a wonderful family.

I saw that (watch SO little of network shows anymore) and was so moved by it! It was one thing that they built the Piestewa's a new house--but the community center for the vets they built on the reservation was wonderful.

The show last week about the medic who lost his leg in Iraq was incredible too.

What is weird is that early on during the aftermath of Katrina--on one of NautiNurse's hurricane threads--I posted that the White House and Extreme Makeover Home Addition should get together and do a show centered around Katrina victims. Guess I wasn't the only one that saw that as a good PR move for the Administration. .

I posted my recollection of that show before I read yours ... I was incredibly moved by it, and so proud that they not only helped Jessica Lynch's promise, but that they had not "Yeah, but..." moments in the show. Really good.

I also like the sense of charity that is NON-GOVERNMENTAL in nature.
