Extreme Makeover the television series

Season 1, Episode 5
Date Aired: 5/22/03

This week marks the season finale of Extreme Makeover the television series and it features Evelyn and Sharon as the participants. Evelyn is a 29-year-old waitress from Jacksonville, FL and is a single mother trying to raise three kids. However, unlike the other participants that have taken it upon themselves to contact the show; it was her 11-year-old daughter that wrote to show asking that her mother be chosen for Extreme Makeover the television series. This other participant, Sharon is 27 years old, is also a mother of three living and lives in Livonia, MI. She wants a makeover because she has been living in the shadow of her identical twin sister for as long as she can remember. Well Evelyn s daughter and Sharon s wishes come true because their applications were accepted for Extreme Makeover the television series.

This week, the plastic surgeon on the "extreme team" is Dr. Robin T.W. Yuan, M.D. and the dentist is Dr. Debra King, D.D.S. Dr. Yuan is the first "extreme team" member that both Evelyn and Sharon meet. At each of their consultations, they discuss what they would like the doctor to do for them, and then Dr. Yuan adds his own suggestions to the discussion. After consultation, both parties have a clear understanding of what is going to be done on the day of surgery.
