Actress Glenn Close and the team help build a home for the family of a soldier. The Hill family of 4 have stayed strongly united as a family while coping with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Is Extreme Makeover Home Edition up for this new challenge? How will they design a home for a Veteran who is sensitive to startling loud sounds, dark spaces, the unknown; and who needs to be consistently monitored?

Ultimately, will this Extreme Makeover Home Edition enhance the Hill Family's desire to live together in harmony, supportiveness and love? Watch these two EM*HE videos to learn how PTSD Symptoms of Re-Experiencing, Avoidance and HyperArousal are technologically addressed in home building/design, interior/exterior decorating and familial amenities for the Hill Family.
