Terri Clauss' mother, Betty, is getting on in age and is becoming less and less capable of living on her own. Terri and Fred and their kids would love for Grandma to come live with them so that they can spend time with her and also provide her an easier, safer life. Betty needs their help ASAP! The problem? Their current living arrangements are less than ideal. In fact, they don't even have a guest bedroom OR a second bathroom. With their main floor currently ripped apart to the studs, the Clausses must build both a bedroom and bathroom for Grandma before she can move in. They've got just 48 hours to convert this area into a sweet suite for Grandma and they're going to need Gionni Thompson's help to do it. During the week Gionni is a high school science teacher but he's spent the last eleven years remodeling homes on the weekends, so they're counting on him to help make it happen in just 48 hours. Will they build Grandma a space to call her own, or will she have to check-in to a nearby nursing home?
