Summary: Leza’s house is so packed, the city has red tagged it as
uninhabitable and she is no longer allowed to live in it. If she doesn’t
clean up before the city imposed deadline, Leza could lose her property
and end up homeless. Linda’s husband has just undergone a heart
transplant and received a second chance at life. However, due to Linda’s
hoarding and the unsanitary conditions of the home, her husband’s
medical team will not allow him to move back home.
Each 60-minute episode of ”Hoarders” is a fascinating look inside the
lives of two different people whose inability to part with their
belongings is so out of control that they are on the verge of a personal
crisis. Whether they’re facing eviction, the loss of their children,
jail time, or divorce, they are all desperately in need of help. In a
fly-on-the-wall style, we’ll capture the drama as experts work to put
each on the road to recovery. But cleaning is just the first step, like
taking drugs away from an addict.
The healing won’t be easy. For some, throwing away even the tiniest
thing — a sponge, a button, an empty box — is so painful that they will
not be able to allow the cleaning to be completed, no matter the
consequences. For others, professional help and an organizer’s guidance
give them the strength to recover. At the end of each episode we’ll find
out who has been able to keep their hoarding behavior at bay and who,
despite help, is still lost inside this painful disease.
