You guys have done so much for me. After 6 years of battling cancer and 154 rounds of chemo, Mindy's foot still hadn't healed after a year and a half. One fall in this driveway could be an injury she lives with forever. Tom, how much would it cost to fix the driveway?

Just for the asphalt, it was 7 grand. What would a new car and your driveway getting redone mean to you guys? Oh, everything. She thought we came back for the driveway.

She had no idea there were two big surprises that would change her life. How are you? I'm great. How are you?

Good. So, I heard through the grapevine that you might be in remission. Yes, I had it was on chemo to keep the cancer away. We had to stop the chemo because my foot wouldn't heal.

And so, it's a very emotional for me cuz without the chemo, I am stage four, the cancer will come back and it'll come back with a vengeance. I didn't realize what chemo does to your body till I stopped it cuz it's taken a very big toll on me, but I mean, I don't have cancer right now and I'm praying that at least we'll heal that up and I can at least walk a little bit better. With God, all things are possible. That's right.

He brings you to them, he'll bring you through them. So, I came here because I have something for you that I wanted to give you. I have $18,000. Oh my, are you seriously?

Thank you. Oh my gosh, what is that? You won't have to worry about falling on the driveway. Oh my gosh, thank you.

You guys have done so much. You don't know. You guys have done so much for me. I was worried I got my foot caught while I was coming back from the doctor.

Oh, she got me in time. So, Mindy, we actually have one more thing for you. Uh-oh. So, last time we talked, you said that you didn't always have money for groceries.

Yeah, we go in streaks with it. A fortune cookie. I like those. You like those?

She does. Can you open it and read it? I do this scare me sometimes. Mindy, your good fortune is just beginning.

P.F. Chang's heard your story and wants to help you make more memories with the people you love. Enjoy $1,000 towards a meaningful meals together. Oh, wow.

Wow. Thank you. It's $1,000 to PF Chang's. You guys can stop now.

Here, you want to eat your fortune cookie? I will when I get inside. Don't you bust that. I'm so happy inside, I just want to go bust other people like I don't know cuz someone blessed me.

Thank you.
