When Hurricane Helene hit, they watched helplessly as floodwaters destroyed their forever home. Macie says it felt like a thief came in the night and stole everything. Dr. Phil also hears from Jamie, who was shocked when her home insurance was unexpectedly canceled due to wildfire risks. Now, her family lives in constant fear of losing everything. Dr. Phil will also speak with attorney at law Steven Bush who says that insurance companies are in it for the profit and offer tips for homeowners seeking coverage in these uncertain times.
