Help to prevent 'Extreme Foreclosure'

OAK PARK, Mich. (AP) - December 15, 2008

Judy and Larry /*Vardon*/ say the money should help them avoid foreclosure on the Oakland County home that was refurbished to better accommodate their blind, autistic son. The deaf couple was featured on "/*Extreme Makeover: Home Edition*/."

The Macomb Daily and The Daily Tribune report Sunday the couple didn't request money, but donations started coming after media outlets this month reported on their plight.

The Vardons said they were weighed down by a mortgage payment that almost doubled since the makeover and medical insurance that hasn't covered autism treatment for 16-year-old Lance.
