Feed 1:

Gerry came out of DR saying they got something in the mail. It is a thank you card. Someone goes to get Amy. All sitting at table.

G: To the bb household, got emotional because it is Deborah's handwriting. Glad it's not live.

R: Yeah, you don't want to cry on national tv.

pp Deb thanks them all for the thoughtful and unexpected gift. They will think of them all for years when they look at the tree. And G, I love you.
There is also a picture of Ashley their cat. G thinks the kids did that part.

From the cat: Guys this gift is the best ever more fun than a paper bag. P.S. Card was delicious.

G: She chews things up and when we have a potted plant she curls up in it. Once again my thanks and love to all of you and the gesture...that's all.

J: Mind if we look at the picture?

G: No and I'll leave the card here if you want to see it.

It was a great video!! And rather long, too -- 5 minutes or so. We got to see the reactions of the other hgs on feeds #1 & 2 and Danielle on #3 with the video on #4. Great way to watch the video, BB. Thanks!

They are about to show it again for those who want to turn on the Quad Cam.

I love America for giving Danielle, who has worked so well, and hard, the family video. however, doesnt look like she has a poor family, as she always pulls out of her sleeve for pity.

Theo17, the slam on Roddy was uncalled for.

There is one part of the video that we aren't allowed to hear for some reason. They must not have a release for something. Only miss about 8 seconds of the video, so I guess that isn't too bad :)

we saw her dad, mom and brother. her mom and dad get a few moments alone on the video. you also here a dog howling in the back.

her father made a meal for her: catfish, collards, rice and black eye peas.

her mom joked about her hair and her friends at work have created the danielle club. her mom's health is ok. she's even walking around in hills. she doesn't have MS. (dan's mom works for SF Chronicle)

her brother looks forward to her coming home.

they are each and every one very proud of her.

next comes her husband and two daughters. the little one says mommy we just want you to know that we are ok. the older one straightened her hair. her husband says how much he loves her. he says that the day that she left the world stopped and he loves her with all of his heart. the older one says that they are praying for her to stay strong.

the video comes back and everyone is together, except for thomas (her brother). her father jokes that he had to be put out cause he ate her plate.

they got to see the video twice.

it was awesome! they are good people and love her and respect her tremendously.

Woohoo, thats great!

mollywood- she doesnt say shes poor, she says they need the money. As part of the middle class in this country I know EXACTLY what she means- you woprk your butt off just to pay living expenses and even then it seems like there just isn't enough to stretch to next payday.

I think Dani's daughter was playing something on the clarinet. The second time we saw the video it looked like she had it with her.

She didn't say her family was poor. She said that they don't have any extra. She said she needs the money to buy a house and pay for the girl's college educations. It's not easy to save the money for a house in California. A basic house is going to be over $300,000. As a parent, I know how expensive it is to raise kids and how hard it is to get ahead, especially when you have your kids young before you've established a career or saved any money. My impression is that Danielle and her husband live month to month, paycheck to paycheck, only able to set aside a little in savings. I completely believe that she had to take a loan to replace her paycheck while she's in the house. They need the money for the monthly bills. She won't get the stipend until after the show is over.
