'Makeover' Crews Work Through Night

Volunteers and construction crews work through the night to build a basement for an "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" house in Kansas City, Kan. Daniel Gilyeat is a father and Marine who served two tours in Iraq. On his second tour, which he volunteered for, he was injured on a mission when a bomb struck his vehicle. Gilyeat suffered serious injuries and lost his left leg above the knee. In addition, his marriage ended and he became a single father of three children. But 25 days after losing his leg, Gilyeat was up and walking with a prosthetic leg and inspiring other wounded soldiers by visiting them in hospitals and speaking with their families.
