Erin / Joshua
Erin spent her teens and twenties as an A-list rock-n-roll groupie, but a prescription to relieve neck pain got her hooked on Dilaudid. Now her mother raises her 5-year-old son while Erin prostitutes herself to maintain a $1700-a-week habit. Her family calls on Sylvia Parsons, who was intervened on by Jeff VanVonderen in Episode 32 from 2006--and who the first subject of Intervention to ever make the transition to interventionist. At the age of 14, Joshua was badly beaten by his girlfriend's father--two years later, he was molested by the leader of his youth group. He turned to heroin to cope with his traumas--and now he lives in a car, running scams and panhandling to support his addiction.

The Repair Shop
The Repair Shop is a workshop of dreams, where broken or damaged cherished family heirlooms are brought back to life.
Furniture restorers, horologists, metal workers, ceramicists, upholsterers and all manner of skilled craftsmen and women have been brought together to work in one extraordinary space, restoring much-loved possessions to their former glory.
Many of these items have incredible stories behind them and a unique place in history: from an accordion played in the Blitz by a woman who is now in her 90s, to a beautifully crafted clock made by a father who was completely blind; a Pinball machine that is currently being used as a kitchen counter, and a Davenport desk with its trademark fake drawers which fooled burglars - and their crowbar.
The Repair Shop is an antidote to our throwaway culture and shines a light on the wonderful treasures to be found in homes across the country.
