VISITING WITH HUELL HOWSER IS MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH A GENEROUS GRANT FROM THE RALPH M. PARSONS FOUNDATION.

HUELL>> WELL, HELLO EVERYBODY I'M HUELL HOWSER.

THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE OF THE, ACTUALLY IT'S THE SECOND CHAPTER IN AN INTERESTING STORY THAT HAPPENED OVER THE HOLIDAYS.

I HAD SOME TIME OFF AND WENT TO LUNCH AT ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLACES "THE APPLE PAN" ON PICO IN WEST LA.

I WALKED IN THE APPLE PAN AND HERE'S WHAá I SAW RIGHT HERE.

I SAW THIS GROUP OF LADIES.

I DIDN'T SEE YOU.

YOU WERE IN THE RESTROOM AT THE TIME.

I SAW THIS GROUP OF LADIES AT THE COUNTER THEY WERE JUST FULL OF ENERGY.

THEY WERE WAVING AND SHOUTING AND SAYING HELLO, HUELL.

THEY WERE FULL OF ENERGY AND IT WAS VERY INTERESTING.

I WENT OVER TO THEM AND SAID "WHO ARE YOU ALL, AND WHAT IS GOING ON HERE."

THEY'RE STORY IS I VERY, VERY INTERESTING AND I THINK INSPIRING ONE FOR ALL OF US TO HEAR.

ESPECIALLY AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS NEW YEAR WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AHEAD AND THINKING OF WAYS WE ARE GOING TO CHANGE AND MAKE OUR LIVES BETTER.

WE HAVE MET HERE ON THE REDONDO BEACH PIER ON THERE GLORIOUS WINTER DAY THAT ONLY SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COULD PROVIDE US.

WE'RE READY TO HEAR THIS AMAZING STORY THAT THESE LADIES AND GENTLEMAN HAVE TO SHARE WITH US TODAY.

DORIS YOU HAVE BEEN MY CONTACT >> YES HUELL>> YOU ARE HEAD OF THE PHONE COMMITTEE AND SET THIS UP AND GOT YOU ALL HERE.

TELL US ABOUT THIS GROUP AND WHAT YOU ALL SHARE >> AT THE APPLE PAN, WHEN YOU ASKED US WHAT WE WERE DOING THERE.

NO ONE CAME FORWARD AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I THOUGHT WELL THE REASON WE'RE HERE IS BECAUSE WE ALL HAD CANCER.

AND WE, MANY OF US MET AT THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY.

I PERSONALLY HAD CANCER THE FIRST TIME TEN YEARS AGO.

I HAD BREAST CANCER.

I LOOKED FOR A PLACE WHERE I COULD GET SOME SUPPORT, BE WITH PEOPLE THAT WOULD UNDERSTAND.

IT TOOK ME A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND I FOUND THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY IN REDONDO BEACH.

THEY'RE IT'S, WHERE YOU CAN GET PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT.

AND YOU ARE NEVER ASKED FOR ONE CENT.

IT'S ALL FREE, AND IT'S A WONDERFUL PLACE TO FIND OTHER PEOPLE WHO LIVE WONDERFUL LIVES WITH CANCER.

THIS IS WHERE I FIRST LEARNED THAT IF YOU HAVE CANCER YOUR LIFE DOESN'T STOP.

YOU CAN STILL HAVE A GREAT FUN LIFE, WHICH I HUELL>> THIS SAY SUPPORT GROUP.

ALL OF THESE LADIES AND THIS GENTLEMAN ARE PEOPLE YOU MET THROUGH THIS WHOLE SITUATION THAT YOU FOUND >> THAT'S RIGHT.

I HAVE NEVER MET A MORE WONDERFUL TYPE OF PERSON, AS I HAVE, AT THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY AND HUELL>> DID YOU KNOW EACH OTHER >> NO.

HUELL>> YOU WERE BROUGHT TOGETHER FROM ALL OVER, FROM ALL OF THESE... >> WE'RE A HUELL>> EXPLAIN THAT >> WELL WE HELP EACH OO.

WE TALK TO EACH OTHER.

WE SUPPORT EACH OTHER.

WE GO PLACES FOR FUN.

AND YOU HAVE SOMETHING CRAWLING ON YOUR FACE... HUELL>> YES I TOLD YOU, YOU NEVER NEW WHAT THIS GROUP WOULD >> WELL I'LL ELABORATE A LITTLE BIT, IF YOU WANT FACTS.

I WAS A BREAST CANCER PATIENT.

I HAD CHEMO AND RADIATION, THEN I WENT FOR WHAT THEY CALL A STEM CELL.

IT'S A VERY RADICAL TREATMENT.

BUT I HAVE BEEN CURED OF CANCER, BUT I STILL APPRECIATE EVERY DAY THAT I GET UP IN THE MORNING AND SAY THIS IS A GREAT DAY ENJOY IT.

YOU HAVE TO ENJOY EVERY DAY YOU HUELL>> HOW IMPORTANT IS THIS SUPPORT AT THIS PARTICULAR TIME IN >> IT'S IMMENSELY SUPPORTED.

MY HUSBAND DIED.

AT THE APPLE PAN WE WERE HOISTING A HICKORY BURGER IN HIS NAME.

I DON'T HAVE CANCER, JIM HUELL>> YOU MET THIS GROUP THROUGH >> YES.

AND AS SHE SAID WE HAVE BECOME A FAMILY.

WE SUPPORT EACH OTHER WITH ILLNESSES AND CANCER ILLNESSES BUT THE DAILY PROBLEMS AND STRESSES.

I FEEL LIKE I'M SISTERS TO MOST OF THESE HUELL>> THEY WERE ABLE TO HELP YOU WITH THE LOSS OF YOUR >> THAIRP WONDERFUL TO ME.

I HAVE HAD HELP FROM OTHER PEOPLE, CHURCH AND COMMUNITY, BUT THIS IS FAMILY BESIDES HUELL>> THEY WERE ALL AT THE APPLE PAN HOISTING HICKORY BURGERS BECAUSE YOUR HUSBAND WAS A HUGE HICKORY >> WE WERE ONE OF THE FIRST CUSTOMERS.

>> HOW MANY HAD BEEN TO THE APPLE >> NEVER.

I WILL >> THERE ARE THREE GENERATION IN'S MY FAMILY THAT WENT TO THE HUELL>> WE'RE NOT HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE APPLE PAN.

LET'S HERE MORE OF >> I HAD COLON CANCER AND NOW IT'S BEEN FIVE YEARS.

THEY CALL THAT A CURE.

BUT I DON'T LIKE THAT WORD, BECAUSE YOU NEVER REALLY KNOW.

YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO BE VIGILANT.

ANYWAYS THIS IS MY SECOND FAMILY IN SOME WAYS BETTER THAN YOUR HUELL>> YES.

YOU KNOW WHY, I WAS JUST THINKING OF THIS.

SEE IF I'M RIGHT ON THIS.

THEY'RE CLOSER TO YOU IN A TIME LIKE THIS BECAUSE SOMETIMES YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY OR HOW TO...

THEY DON'T.

YOU ALL HAVE ALL SHARED SOMETHING IN COMMON.

SO YOU CAN EMPATHIZE MUCH MORE DIRECTLY.

IS >> RIGHT.

THAT'S WHAT IT IS.

YOU CAN REALLY, WE RELATE TO EACH OO.

WHERE OUR OTHER FRIENDS AND FAMILIES DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT WE ARE FEELING OR... LIKE YOU SAID THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT HUELL>> WHAT ARE >> I'M FEELING HAPPY NOW THAT I HAVE MET THESE PEOPLE.

IT'S WONDERFUL.

>> IT PROBABLY WASN'T ALWAYS THAT WAY?

NOIFRJTS.

WHEN I WAS FIRST DIAGNOSED IT WAS CATASTROPHIC.

WHEN YOU HEAR THAT ON THE PHONE IT'S HUELL>> YOU HEARD IT ON THE >> YES.

I HEARD IT ON THE PHONE.

BUT MY DOCTOR WAS REALLY GOOD.

SHE TOLD ME RIGHT AWAY ABOUT THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY AND SHE WANTED ME TO GET A FAMILY THERAPIST.

I HAVE BREAST CANCER BUT A VERY RARE HUELL>> EVERYBODY HAS A DIFFERENT TYPE OF STORY.

YET, THE STORIES >> YES I HAD BREAST CANCER IN 94, AND I LEFT THE SUPPORT GROUP A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO BECAUSE I FELT I HAD ALL OF THE SUPPORT AND EVERYTHING.

BUT WE'RE STILL IN TOUCH ALL OF THE TIME.

NOW I VOLUNTEER AT THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY.

FOR THE INTRODUCTORY MEETINGS FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED.

I LIKE TO GIVE BACK TO THE HUELL>> DOES THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY KICK INTO GEAR IMMEDIATELY WHEN THEY FIND OUT YOU HAVE CANCER.

DO THEY HOOK >> NO.

YOU HAVE TO FIND THE PLACE YOURSELF.

I KNOW WHEN I WAS FIRST DIAGNOSED IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT.

THEN WHEN HI CANCER THE SECOND TIME, IN 92, I HAD OVARIAN CANCER AS WELL.

THEN I KNEW IMMEDIATELY TO GO TO THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY AND TO GO TO ANOTHER GROUP.

IT'S JUST BEEN SO MUCH EASIER TO DEAL WITH IT.

LIKE YOU WERE SAYING WHAT DOES YOUR FAMILY SAY?

WELL, I HAVE FOUR GROWN CHILDREN AND A WONDERFUL SUPPORTIVE HUSBAND.

BUT IF I WOULD OF TOLD THEM WHAT I REALLY FELT...

THEY WOULD OF FREAKED OUT.

HUELL>> EVERYBODY AGREES ON THAT.

I WANT TO DEVELOP THIS A LITTLE BIT.

WHAT WAS SHE TALKING ABOUT WHEN SHE SAID WHAT THEY >> WELL, IN OUR GROUPS WE HAVE DIFFERENT GROUPS.

WE'RE ALL WITH THE SAME GROUP.

YOU CAN TALK FREELY ABOUT ANYTHING.

ANY STRESS IN YOUR LIFE.

ANYTHING YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT.

DOCTORS OR WHATEVER.

YOU CAN'T TALK TO YOUR FAMILY OR FRIENDS BECAUSE THEY DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE FEELING.

IF YOU ARE SCARED OR CONFUSED.

YOU CAN RELEASE ALL OF THAT IN HUELL>> YOU KNOW, I JUST REALIZED WE HAVEN'T TALKED TO THIS FELL EE HERE.

HOW DID YOU GET HOOKED UP WITH THIS GROUP OF >> I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER IN JANUARY OF 1996, I HAVE LYMPHOMA WITH MEANS IT'S EVERYWHERE IN THE LYMPH NOBODIES AND BONE MARROW.

IT'S RELATIVELY SLOW MOVING AND I DON'T HAVE PAIN OR BEING TREATED.

MY DOCTOR TOLD ME ABOUT THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY.

I ASKED HIM FOR SUPPORT.

HE TOLD ME.

I WENT THERE.

I JOINED THE GROUP AS THESE LADIES HAVE BEEN.

IT'S WONDERFUL BEING ONE OF ONLY TWO MEN IN THE GROUP.

THERE WERE FOUR BUT TWO OF THEM PASSED AWAY.

I GET TO ASK QUESTIONS.

I CAN TELL THEM SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED TO ME BETWEEN ME AND MY WIFE AND ASK HOW THEY FEEL ABOUT IT.

THEY WILL TELL ME YOU ARE FULL OF IT, YOU ARE WRONG, OR YOU ARE RIGHT KEEP GOING.

THINGS LIKE THAT.

IT'S A HUELL>> I HAVE A FEELING FOR ALL OF YOU IT'S PROBABLY A LEARNING EXPERIENCE AS YOU GO ALONG.

THAT YOU ARE A LOT... YOU KNOW A LOT MORE NOW ABOUT THE HUMAN CONDITION.

I'M NOT JUST TALK ABOUT CANCER, BUT... >> JUST EVERYTHING.

I ATTRIBUTE, MY HUSBAND HAD LUNG CANCER.

HE LASTED FOR FOUR AND A HALF YEARS.

I A TRIB I'LL THAT IN ADDITION TO HIS GREAT MEDICAL CARE HE HAD, BUT TO THE SUPPORT OF THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY.

IT WAS JUST A LIFESAVER FOR US.

BESIDES THAT HE WAS ONE OF THE FEW MEN IN THE GROUP AT THE TIME, AND THESE LADIES WERE HERE AND TOOK HIM OFF MY HANDS.

HE WAS JIM'S HAREMM HUELL>> NOW >> IT DEPENDS ON THEM IF THEY LET ME HUELL>> THIS IS INTERESTING.

I'M VERY COMFORTABLE ABOUT TALKING ABOUT THIS.

BUT I'M COMFORTABLE WITH TALK ABOUT ALMOST ANYTHING.

MY MOTHER HAD BREAST CANCER.

I KNOW WHAT IT DID TO OUR FAMILY, AND OUR EMOTIONAL REACTION ON HOW TO DEAL WITH SXHER WHAT SHE WAS GOING THROUGH.

AND SHE DIDN'T HAVE, OR KNOW ABOUT, A GROUP LIKE THIS.

I ONLY WISH SHE HAD.

THINK IT WOULD OF MADE IT SO >> YOU KNOW, IT IS SO MUCH EASIER.

ALSO WHEN YOU WERE TALKING A LITTLE WHILE AGO I THOUGHT ABOUT SOME OF THE PEOPLE WHO PASSED AWAY IN OUR GROUP THAT I HAVE KNOWN FOR SO LONG.

AND I PERSONALLY HAVE GOTTEN SO MUCH STRENGTH FROM THEM, AND I HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH THAT YOU CAN GO WITH DIGNITY.

I HAVE SEEN PEOPLE DO IT.

AND I, I THINK IT'S A WONDERFUL THING THAT I WAS ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THEIR LAST MONTHS HUELL>> AS OPEN AS YOU ALL ARE AND AS OPEN AS WE ARE IN A SOCIETY NOW ABOUT TALKING ABOUT >> HUELL>> IT'S STILL A WORD THAT BRINGS FEAR, >> YES.

YOU SAY YOU HAVE CANCER AND THEY LOOK AT YOU LIKE YOU WILL DEAD THE NEXT DAY.

THAT'S NOT TRUE ANYMORE.

THERE ARE MANY, MANY >> AGREE WITH HER, YES.

I HAVE BREAST CANCER TOO.

IT'S MAMMOGRAMS AND SON OWE GRAHAMS DIDN'T HELP ME.

I WENT FAITHFULLY YEARLY.

I HAVE WHAT YOU CALL TUBULAR BREAST CANCER THAT WENT TO THE BONE.

I'M IN STAGE FOUR NOW AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY CAN DO FOR ME.

THERE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT THESE LADIES HAVE GONE THROUGH THAT I WON'T EXPERIENCING.

I FOUND OUT THROUGH THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY FROM A LITTLE CALENDAR AT THE DOCTORS OFFICE.

SINCE SAW THAT I COULDN'T GET THEIR QUICK ENOUGH.

I FIND THAT, LIKE SHE SAID YOU CAN TALK ABOUT ANYTHING YOU WANT.

ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU WANT AND THESE LADIES LET YOU HAVE IT.

THEY TELL YOU HOW IT HUELL>> WHAT DO YOU MEAN, LET YOU >> THEY DON'T SOFTEN IT UP OR ANYTHING.

THEY JUST TELL YOU.

THEY GAVE ME MORE INFORMATION THEN ALL OF THE DOCTORS AND HOSPITALS AND CANCER INSURANCE AT THIS TUEPT COMBINED.

AND I HAVE FOUR GROWN CHILDREN TOO.

I WILL SAY THIS, BECAUSE IF ANY OF THEM ARE WATCHING...

I THINK A COUPLE OF THEM HAVE ACCEPTED IT AND I THINK ANOTHER IS IN DENIAL.

LIKE YOU SAID, THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY OR DO.

BUT YOU CAN GO TO THIS SGROUP LET YOUR HAIR DOWN AND SAY EXACTLY WHAT YOU FEEL.

NO HOLDS BAR.

JUST LIKE YOUR PROGRAM.

NO RULES OR REGULATIONS OR ANYTHING.

WHEN YOU GET INSKEWER ABOUT THINGS, THERE WAS A COUPLE OF TIMES I HAD THINGS I WANTED TO DISCUSS AND I CALLED THE WELLNESS COMMUNITY TO SEE IF I COULD TALK PRIVATELY.

THEY SAID NO THAT'S WHAT THE GROUP IS FOR, YOU CAN TALK ABOUT ANYTHING.

I WAS AFRAID THE THINGS I MIGHT TALK ABOUT WOULD HURT SOMEONE IN THE GROUP OR UPSET THEM.

THEY SAID NO.

I FWAUKD IT AND THEY RALLY AROUND YOU AND SUPPORT YOU AND IT'S FANTASTIC.

IT IS.

IT'S HUELL>> WE'RE GOING TO PUT THE NAME AND TELEPHONE NUMBER OF THE WELLNESS GROUP.

I KNOW THERE ARE SELF BRANCHES AROUND THE SOUTHLAND.

WE WILL PUT A TELEPHONE NUMBER UP THERE.

IF THERE'S ANYONE OUT IS THERE THAT DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE WELLNESS GROUP, IT'S SOMETHING I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT.

WHEN I TOLD PEOPLE AT KCET ABOUT IT, A LOT THEM DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT.

HUELL>> ON THIS DAY, THIS GLORIOUS DAY WE CAME OUT HERE TO TALK ABOUT A SUBJECT THAT FRANKLY SCARES A LOT OF PEOPLE, AND MAKES A LOT OF PEOPLE UN UNCOMFORTABLE.

I THINK I WOULD LIKE TO END AT THE FIRST OF THE YEAR HERE, ASKING EACH OF YOU WHAT YOU HAVE GAIN FROMMED THIS.

WHAT YOU HAVE, HOW YOU LOOK AT LIFE?

HOW YOU, THE LESSONS YOU CAN TELL US, BECAUSE I THINK WE ALL, IT SOUNDS TRITE, BUT WE TAKE OUR HEALTH FOR GRANITE, WE TAKE A DAY LIKE THIS FOR GRANITE, WE DON'T KNOW OUR BLESSINGS.

I'M CURIOUS HOW YOU MAY WANT TO END THE PROGRAM BY SHARING THESE THOUGHTS >> I HAVE LEARNED SO MANY THINGS.

ONE IS DEEPER COMPASSION FOR OTHER PEOPLE AND WHAT THEY ARE GOING THROUGH.

>> I HAVE LEARNED TO JUST ENJOY EACH DAY TO ITS FULLEST.

LIKE THEY SAY "THROUGH THIZE OF A CHILD."

EVERYTHING IS REALLY NICE.

EVERY LITTLE THING CAN, YOU KNOW, BE GOOD.

YOU NEED TO >> I HAVE LEARNED TO GET RID OF STRESS AND REALLY TO LIVE EVERY DAY TO ITS FULLEST AND >> WELL, BEFORE CANCER I WAS A MOTHER, A DAUGHTER, A WIFE AND ALL OF THESE THINGS.

EVERY DAY I JUST GIVE THINGS TO MAKE OTHER PEOPLE HAPPY.

SINCE CANCER I HAVE GIVEN MYSELF PERMISSION TO LEAVE ALL OF THE DISHES IN THE SINK AND WALK BY THE OCEAN.

I LIVE A MUCH MORE WONDERFUL LIFE.

>> WELL, SINCE I FOUND OUT I HAVE CANCER I THANK GOD EACH DAY FOR EACH DAY WHEN I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING.

I LOVE THE BEACH AND THE SUN.

THINGS I WOULD PUT OFF, NOT ANYMORE.

I DON'T THINK ABOUT IT.

PEOPLE THINK I'M CRAZY, BUT I SAY JUST DO IT.

I'M MAKING PLANS AND I'M GOING TO DO THINGS.

MAYBE I SHOULDN'T SAY SOME OF THE THINGS I'M GOING TO SAY.

>> WELL, LIKE EVERYONE ELSE SAID.

YOU TAKE EACH DAY AS IT COMES ALONG.

TRY TO BE HAPPY AND SUPPORTIVE OF OTHER PEOPLE, IF YOU CAN.

I VOLUNTEER AT THE WELLNESS.

I'M INVOLVED IN THE MAILING.

SO THAT GIVES YOU A FEELING OF ACCOMPLISHING THINGS AND HELPING PEOPLE.

I TALK ON THE PHONE TO PEOPLE WHO ARE CONSIDERING HAVING STEM CELL, I TRY TO EXPLAIN TO THEM WHAT IT WILL... WHAT WILL HAPPEN.

MAKE IT A LITTLE EASIER FOR THEM.

I DID THE SAME THING BEFORE I HAD MINE.

I FOUND A PERSON AND TALKED TO THEM.

SO, KNOWLEDGE IS HELPFUL.

ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE SCARED TO DEATH.

I THINK THAT THE SUPPORT AT THE WELLNESS HAS LEAD TO MY BEING CURED.

OR THEY SAY I'M CURED OF CANCER.

BUT YOU NEVER KNOW.

>> I THINK, TWO THINGS.

I HAVE LEARNED LIFE IS NOT A DRESS REHEARSAL.

OKAY.

MOST, THIS IS FROM ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

MOST PEOPLE ARE JUST ABOUT AS HAPPY AS THEY MAKE UP THEIR MIND TO BE.

THAT'S HOW I LIKE TO LOOK AT LIFE.

WITH THE SUPPORT OF MY FRIENDS THAT HAVE MADE BEING ALONE NOW, I HAVE CHILDREN ADULT CHURN, BUT THEY HAVE THEIR OWN LIVES.

YOU HAVE TO MAKE YOUR OWN LIFE.

IT'S A JOURNEY AND I HAVE A LIFE AHEAD OF ME WITH A NEW JOURNEY.

I JUST HOPE I CAN TAKE THESE PEOPLE WITH ME.

I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO WHAT'S AROUND THE >> OKAY.

WELL FIRST I WOULD LIKE TO SAY OUR WEDNESDAY MORNING GROUP IS FILLED WITH A WEALTH OF INFORMATION FROM PEOPLE THAT HAVE GONE THROUGH MANY DIFFERENT CANCERS.

THAT HELPS THE NEWCOMERS LIKE I WAS WHEN I CAME IN.

EVERYTHING IS STRICTLY CON IF CONFIDENTIAL.

I LEARNED TO ACCEPT MY CANCER, NOT BE AFRAID OF IT.

JUST LEARN TO LIVE WITH IT.

HAVE FUN.

I HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES AND THEY NEED TO BE TAKEN CARE OF.

FUN IS IMPORTANT.

GETTING TOGETHER WITH THIS EXTENDED FAMILY AND OTHER FRIENDS IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS IN THE WORLD TO ME.

THAT'S WHERE IT IS ALL HUELL>> WELL SAID.

I TELL YOU WHAT, IT'S BEEN SUCH A PLEASURE AND A HONOR.

LITTLE DID I REALIZE WHEN I WALKED INTO THE APPLE PAN THAT DAY IT WOULD GROW INTO THIS.

THESE ARE WORDS THAT ALL OF US COULD LEARN BY, IF WE WOULD LISTEN TO THEM AND HEED THEM.

THINK YOU ALL HAVE INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY ADDED A LOT TO THE LIVES OF ALL OF THE PEOPLE WATCHING TODAY.

I THANK YOU ALL FOR SHARING YOUR WONDERFUL LIFE STORIES WITH US.

IT HAS BEEN A GENUINE JOY AND A PLEASURE.

AND THIS HAS BEEN OUR MORNING HERE.

LOUIE, LET'S GET A NICE SHOT OF THE GROUP TOGETHER.

THIS IS OUR MORNING WITH THE WELLNESS GROUP HERE ON THE REDONDO BEACH PIER ON THIS GLORIOUS WINTER MORNING IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.

WE HAVE TRULY HEARD SOME WONDERFUL STORIES.

THANK YOU, LADIES AND GENTLEMAN.

>> >> THANK YOU.

THANK HUELL>> BYE BYE.

HUELL>> YOU KNOW OVER THE YEARS COUNTLESS THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE COME TO HOLLYWOOD IN SEARCH OF FAME AND FOR TUNE, THEY WANTED TO BE STARS.

THOSE THAT HAVE IN AED HAVE FOUND THEIR NAMES HERE ON THE HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME OR THEIR FOOT PRINTS AND HAND PRINTS IN THE CONCRETE IN FRONT OF THE CHINESE THEATER.

THERE ARE THREE LADIES THAT HAVE BEEN IN HOLLYWOOD A LONG TIME.

THEY HAVE WORKED HARD AND BECOME HONEST TO GOODNESS SUPER STARS.

YOU WON'T FIND THEIR NAMES OR FOOTPRINT ANYWHERE ON THIS BLFRD.

"I GET SO LONELY BABY♪♪ I GET SO LONELY I COULD DIE" HUELL>> MEET THESE DELRUBIO SISTERS.

AS YOU CAN SEE THEY'RE TRIPLETS.

AND IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL THEM APART.

THEY STARTED TO SING TOGETHER OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL IN BACK EAST.

MOVED TO LA IN SEARCH OF FAME AND FOR TUNE.

THEY HAVE BEEN GOING NONSTOP SINCE.

HELLO EVERYBODY.

THIS IS MILLI ON MY LEFT AND RUBY ON MY RIGHT♪♪ HUELL>> NOW, THE DAY I CAUGHT UP WITH THEM THEY WERE PERFORMING FOR THE FOLKS AT CARE WEST CON VA LEPS ENT HOSPITAL.

LOTS OF HAND CLAPPING AND LOTS OF SMILES ALL AROUND.

NOW PERFORMING IN A CON CONVALESCENT HOSPITAL NEAR A SOFT DRINK MACHINE MAY NOT SEEM GLAMOROUS BUT FOR THESE TRIPLETS IT'S WHAT SHOW BUSINESS IS ALL ABOUT.

>> BABE HAD A STROKE AND WHILE AWAY THE HOURS AND GIVE HER THE FEELING OF LIFE.

SHE WAS REALLY VERY ILL. WE STARTED TO SING SOFTLY TO HER IN HER ROOM.

THEN SOME OF THE PATIENTS ALONG THE HALLWAY, THIS WAS A HOSPITAL, THEY WOULD ASK US TO COME IN.

TELL THE NURSE TO HAVE THE GIRLS COME IN.

IT WAS SMOOTHING.

WE FIGURED THAT THIS WAS A VACATION FOR US, NOT JUST A PLEASURE BUT A VOCATION.

WHEN WE CAME HOME MILLIE STARLT TODAY CALL DIFFERENT HOSPITALS AND THEN IT MOVED UP FROM ONE AND TWO A WEEK TO NOW FOUR OR FIVE A DAY.

HUELL>> HOW DO THE THREE OF YOU GET ALONG AFTER ALL OF THESE YEARS?

>> WE ARGUE AND ARGUE.

WE COUNTED THE OTHER DAY.

WE USUALLY HAVE FOUR HEATED ARGUMENTS >> THAT'S >> BUT WE LOVE EACH OTHER VERY MUCH.

EACH JUST THINKS THEY'RE RIGHT.

GOING PLACE THAT'S I HAVE NEVER BEEN♪♪ SEEING THINGS I WILL NEVER SEE AGAIN♪♪ I CAN'T WAIT TO GET ON THE ROAD AGAIN♪♪ ON THE ROAD AGAIN♪♪ >> YOU KNOW WE HAVE PRACTICALLY 750 NUMBERS.

>> WE HAVE SONGS FOR EVERY HUELL>> WHO GETS >> HER VOICE GOES WITH THE GORGEOUS BALLADS.

THEN EDDIE DOES WHAT WE CALL THE DYNAMICS.

I DON'T HAVE A VIBRADO WHICH IS YESTERDAY'S WAY OF SINGING.

I'M AT HELPLESS AS A KIT EN IN A TREE♪♪ >> WE LOOK FORWARD TO THEM EVERY TIME WE HEAR THEY HUELL>> YOU ARE ON THE FRONT >> YES, BECAUSE I ASK FOR THINGS.

THEY DON'T KNOW, >> THEY ARE SO NICE AND GOOD LOOKING AND GOT THE RHYTHM.

THEY HUELL>> THEY GOT A LOT OF >> YOU BET YOUR LIFE THEY HAVE.

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM COME EVERY WEEK.

HUELL>> DO YOU THINK YOU COULD EVER QUIT >> I DON'T THINK SO.

THIS IS OUR LIFE BLOOD.

IT REALLY.

>> SOMETIMES WE TAKE A DAY OFF.

SELDOM, BUT SOMETIMES.

REALLY I MISS IT.

>> AN AWAKENNING, IT'S AN AWAKENING TO THE TRUE VALUES OF LIFE IT IS.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES♪♪ BETWEEN THE SUN AND THE FLOURS♪♪ WHERE THERE USE TO BE RAIN♪♪ MY YESTERDAY'S ARE... HUELL>> THE TRIPLETS, THEY CAME TO HOLLYWOOD YEARS AGO IN SEARCH OF FAME AND FOR TUNE AND STARDOM AND THEY FOUND MUCH MORE.
