Where is the proceeds from the auction of Jackie's bears? Will she be getting her money?
Àæ
Me toooo 😂
"The beginning of the end for me was eBay"
No truer words have been spoken.😂🤣
No wonder some teddie bears cost in the thousands.
LMAO I'm dead
@@dariusdauderys6218 LOL, but wow 😔 sad.
I LOVE Ebay!!! It is a matter of having self control. No way my home will ever be hoarded.I don't even understand how these people can get their homes that ridiculous overloaded with trash.
In fact it is a kind of achievement 😂 No way i could ever do so.
Psh I used to love Airline travel kits I got them on eBay.. thank god that ended soon
Going through a million dollars severance package insane but at least her house is not filled with rotten food, roaches and rodents.
There is probably some rodents in there. Great nesting areas in all those stuffed bears.
Yeah I would probably be buried in all of them.. LOL ha ha ha ha,🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻
I wish I had 1 million in severance!
I wish she could have sold as many of the teddy bears even for a dollar each, she could have earned something back
If only she had invested part of the million, she’d be on easy street now
She had 1 million dollars but didn't pay down her mortgage? That would be the first thing I would do.
They could still sell all d teddy bears cheap
Yup
I agree
Glad someone else thought the same thing
At least pay off 3/4 of the Mortgage.
My grandma used to think people were in her house and her house was super clean and tidy then was diagnosed with early dementia so I hope she’s being watched closely
That would be such a scary thing to believe, that strangers were in your house or coming and going freely with no one around you reacting. And then imagine if it turned out that she was right, and it really was one of those situations where a homeless person was squatting in her home (which is a real thing that has happened to people, there are videos about it on CZcams) and no one believed her. Oh, that would freak me out.
Mine thought the nurses we dragging her out of her room and beating her up, and injecting her with drugs she didn't need, and telling her mean things. It is heartbreaking, because it's real in their minds, and the fear is real.
@@Susweca5569 That's absolutely horrifying, I'm so sorry.
@@venus_envy àa
A $1 million severance package says just how valuable and good at her job she was!!
where the heck was she working
@@lisaswayne8241 I wondered that too...
@@lisaswayne8241 For a check that lucrative, it was likely one of the lesser-known niches (at least when it comes to public knowledge). Could'a been for oil derrick computers, power grid systems, medical equipment software, tractor software... There's a lot more to computer programming than just video games, websites, and desktop/laptop applications. Fewer people know about the niches, so fewer people strive for 'em. The type of skillset that's required for one such niche makes a skilled member of that niche *very* valuable.
Absolutely
I don’t know anyone who has gotten that big of a severance package😂
How do they just gloss over the fact that as a teen, he was experimenting with explosives?? He said it so casually
Exactly...
I thought the same thing.
Maybe he also struggles with mentally illness.
Well if ur trying to blow up some part of America 🇺🇸you have to start some where. Also it's a hard lesson to learn . You should be lucky that he wasn't trying to say he was going to further his Education and go to alkyda to learn how to make better bombs. Lol who reads this I was just being funny 😂🤣lol
@@chuckwicksimmons5813 No one is laughing.
I work on cleaning my house before and after watching hoarders.
same here. Since then I never stop cleaning day and night and throwing everything I own🤣🤣🤣
Same😅😂😅
Me too!!
Motivating, isn't it? 😂✌️
Ontspullen
She has such a beautiful bright home when it's not filled with stuff.
Classy house with lots of charm for sure.. 70's 😍
well, she has or she had. In her condition, with dementia and mental problems. Those never heals, it just get worse.
imagine someone finding an abandoned house with hundreds of teddy bears
Trip
i will freak the frack out
Freaky 🥶
Total creep show.
Scariest thing ever.
Million dollar severance package... Jackie should still be living comfortably
What Job gives a million dollars severance? Plz do tell?!?!?! Best wishes to them both 💜
@@jenniferward9483
Did you listen to the Story??? Plenty companies do that..She worked
A million dollars isn't what it use to be.
@@joekev27 well that's something I will never know. But I can guarantee this, if I had that kind of money I would live very good the rest of my life. And help my 4 brothers and my sister. I'd stake my life on it. But I will never know.
@@kimwagoner1147
Me neither 🤷
I think a very rewarding thing for her to do with all those bears is to share them with children in hospitals. To bring joy to children is a gift.
If they’ve been in that house collecting dust it’s not good for sick children
There is no way they let those dusty bears go to sick children.
judy that sounds nice when we read it, but in reality, that is not good.
I agree whit you
When I want to clean my house--I always watch hoarders first!!!
Motivating😄
Same 😂😂
I laughed so hard with this XD
Very relatable 😂
It works ! 😂
count me in 😂
😂 I’m the same
I think it'd be cool if they send the bear-bears to kids all over & have them video her to say thanks. At least she knows the bears are in good hands🤷♂️
Wise idea. Or auction them like they said they would do. Did they ever have the auction? What was the result?
Great idea
@@cathieludemann5879 the end of the episode has an update. She ended up having all the bags of bears pulled from auction and delivered back to her. I couldn’t believe it when I read that at the end of the episode but then again I can…😭
@@maryashley2947 Thanks for the update. Sad but maybe she will find another way to share them.
@@maryashley2947 I missed that!
The delusion of a stranger living in her house and stealing her bears sounds like signs of schizophrenia
Or dementia.
Or dementia. My aunt, near the end of her ability to live on her own, thought people were living in her basement and stealing from her. She had a type of vascular dementia.
@@karenkoe7096 Yes, Dementia. A daughter wrote in our local paper that it took twelve awful months to get a court appointed guardian for her father. He would sleep on the sofa because he thought "people were living in his bedroom". He used to take meals in for them.
F stealing her car keys. Etc.
Just before my PawPaw passed, he would swear up and down that my Nana was allowing another man to come and go in their home as he pleased. His proof was the bedroom slippers. The slippers belonged to my PawPaw! Sadly, his dementia progressed to where he would hallucinate and see a man in the bathroom mirror.
This one truly broke my heart. First time I don’t completely resent the hoarder. When she started crying about people stealing her teddy bears, I was like girl has serious issues. I hope she gets help and enjoy her life in this beautiful house
Jesus, you resent them? why do you watch the show? you realize people who are hoarders are dealing with serious mental illnesses, right? they aren't hurting you-- why be so cruel and heartless?
You didn't think she had serious issues when you saw her whole house full of bears and puppets? 👀
Extreme hoarders have a mental illness that stems from serious trauma. Resent them? Really?
she went through such an enormously traumatic experience seeing her son horrifically injured like that, and then having to go through cancer right after, it's no wonder she turned to surrounding herself with soft comforting teddy bears. i don't know where her delusions are coming from, if that's late-onset schizophrenia or a sign of dementia or something else, but i really hope she sticks with the counseling and is able to process her trauma and come back to reality. she has a beautiful home and it would be such a shame if it can't stay that way.
Not detracting from this lady's case, but hoarding disorder alone is a serious issue, and often has other mental health issues comorbid with it, they just don't usually take time to show that part of it
She made progress but still thinks someone was living in her house stealing her bears 🐻🥸
she definitely has some type of psychosis-don’t expect her delusions to just disappear at the drop of a hat
I not sure about this, overall i think its possible that someone has stolen some of the "top bears". I'm not a bear collector at all, but for example there is a company named "Steiff" which is in europe the benchmark for "teddy bears" they go new for up to 50-500$ and some older collector bears sold from the "Steiff company" on auction in 2013 for more then 100.000$. With 1 mill $ from the company she had enough money for these exclusive teddy bears, but the thieves had to have a lot of knowlegde to look for these "top beas" in the hoarder mess... so proable we will never know for sure what happend
@@ernstschafer6092 No, it's not possible. That would be a wacko, way put scenario. A woman with mental health problems thinks people are stealing her bears when she heard nothing and saw nothing to prove it? That's called psychosis
Maybe she had spritis in her house which made her feel like someone is there and going through her stuff.. For us that had spiritual experiences we know the feeling of presence and not being alone
@@singingstars5006 You're not a psychiatrist and you've never met her so you don't get to diagnose her. You can be paranoid without having psychosis.
this poor woman. this is such a wholesome collection, and she has been through so much. what a sweet person. she deserves happiness.
That house, once decluttered, is pretty awesome-that chandelier, the fireplace, the beamed high ceilings...so much potential for a renovation!
This is the first hoarding videos that was kinda cute due to all the teddy bears. Do you think she had a rough childhood and the one good thing she had was a Teddy bear? This was only an idea
Maybe
Teddy bears obviously represent something really important to her, that she feels she can't get any other way.
I see a sign of her having “physical contact” love language. She bought bear, hug it hoping to get warmth - ouch, it doesn’t work! Let’s buy another one and try again.
The way she describes them as ‘they never reject you’ speaks of pain.
I've been watching a few episodes of Hoarders, and I think, that unless they instigate the clean out, they will just re-hoard. This lady's problems were so deep - why teddy bears, what happened to her as a child? That's therapy and wanting to change. Spending one million dollars on teddy bears is irrational and a sign of deep seated emotional problems and that comes through in every show, it is a mental illness, hoarding, cleaning up for them won't cure anything.
Thats why they ALWAYS have a psychologist there , to address the mental health problems these Hoarders have and they follow up with the people.
That is a good point. I wonder what the long term success rate is. 🤔
@@KrazeeClark one of the psychologists mentioned on some episode that freakin NINETY percent go back to hoarding. As a statistics I think, not just from the show.
90% is a huge number! Maybe that'swhy they don't have a follow up episode
@@Artnotforthesakeofart It was Dr Zasio. I believe the crew was in Texas. 👍
I couldn’t imagine how much those teddy bear look horrifying it the dark 💀
WAIT, why was he building explosives upstairs? (Side note:The chemicals from that could have attributed to her cancer, being around chemicals used for such)
@CurlyG65 Google is an awesome tool
@CurlyG65 precisely why I said, "could have"... :)
A alien could have taken over my dads body and impregnated my mom making me the first human alian hybrids. It could, no proof or any reasoning why it would have happend though
@CurlyG65 sssh im fried out my brains
I know a guy who lost his thumb and two fingers, as a kid. First, children do dumb things and second, things were more lax 20 plus years ago.
Her home is so beautiful. I hope she keeps it that way.
That was a beautiful house, Two million dollar home, specifically in the San Francisco Bay area.
For a 2 million dollar home I think Id want more than a 5 by 5 ft kitchen 😭
Easily worth $2M as it sits. Time to cash out and buy a new construction home in the east bay, spec’d the way you want it.
@@codielizabeth1075 SF is expensive
If you love teddy bears so much why didn't you display them nicely.
I know what you mean. In her case it seems to be more about getting them than having them
With so many just not possible. It seems she enjoyed getting a new bear rather than enjoying what she had.
Because she is a sick person, not a collector, just this.
Hoarding does not work that way.
That first clip: opening the box, sooo excited, “oooooo cuddly cuddly!!!” Should have continued on a few more seconds to see her chuck the New Bear on the pile of all the hundreds of other, discarded New Bears before ordering another New Bear.
B Mom
A few things with this particular one. The first thing was the crying with no tears. I’m not saying she wasn’t really upset but I can’t understand crying with no tears. The biggest problem is the fact she thinks there are people hiding in her house stealing her bears. Could she have early onset Alzheimer’s? That is a tremendously big house. How many of the rest of the rooms of the house look like the one they cleaned? I’m glad the Bears went for auction because at least that way she’s going to get some money back. She should probably sell that home and move into something smaller. Probably the best thing would be assisted living. There’s a whole lot of stuff going on under the surface with this one
I agree... and the kids being sweet but maybe she needs to be admitted
Some seniors have very little moisture produced, dry eyes, dry mouth.
Hoarders over acting and lying in order to deflect from the hoard and try to keep items isn't new. Just like the ones who claimed that the house was broken into and trashed the house. Since this isn't the entire episode, you don't see the manipulation at the end.
It reminds me of this Lifetime movies review, and one of the movies has this girl crying with no tears, like shes constipated or something?..
The epilog of the full version stated she pulled the bears from auction and had them returned to the house.
Im not a psychologist, but if it was me trying to help her, i would line every available wall with shelves. Have her pick out her few thousand favourite bears, until there was no more shelf space, and work with her to auction the rest. Dont take them all away. Thats cruel.
True, if only they can organize and tidy the place up.
She got them all or the majority back a few days later.
@@TXDancingBuffalo Got any links to back up that statement?
If somebody thinks somebody stole bears and made it look like nothing happened, the poor lady has a serious problem. This ain't over, and if I hear she pulled all bears fom auction, she might just start over again. Hoarding is not cured by a quick clean without involving her. She let go of her bears too quickly.
The doctor said at the end of the video she will b getting more medical help.
I not sure about this, overall i think its possible that someone has stolen some of the "top bears". I'm not a bear collector at all, but for example there is a company named "Steiff" which is in europe the benchmark for "teddy bears" they go new for up to 50-500$ and some older collector bears sold from the "Steiff company" on auction in 2013 for more then 100.000$. With 1 mill $ from the company she had enough money for these exclusive teddy bears, but the thieves had to have a lot of knowlegde to look for these "top beas" in the hoarder mess... if she bought a lot expensive bears from ebay, its not so complicated to save the adresse for a thief which knows what some bears can be worth... steal 20 teddy bears and make 10 grand sounds interisting for a thief and noby will belive her for sure... so proable we will never know for sure what happend
She did pull the things from the auction
@@TXDancingBuffalo Really?!?! Oh, my😱 I hope she gets better.
She didn't even look for the ones she thought were taken...there were so many bears how could you even tell what was there or missing anyway. I'm sure they were buried in there somewhere...unless someone really was in there. Never know
Jackie crying DRY tears ...
Strange 🚨
If she is doing dialysis due to her kidney issues it is possible to cry without tears. When my sister passed my mother was crying but there was no tears. She had been on dialysis for two years at that time - she had dry tears.
@@flawsnalltreasures721 interesting ...
OMG Jackie is freaking out over some bears
@@flawsnalltreasures721 sorry for your loss. I didn't know about dry crying and dialysis.
It’s also possible it was a panic attack and she was doing whatever she could do to try to manage out that anxiety.
She was obviously an intelligent, Successful lady. Sad to see her fall so far down.
She actually believes someone was living in her house?
May be her daughters were removing some of her teddy bears and they didn't want her to know.
@@desibritish955 My dad has hoarding tendencies... He had several boxes of empty binders (among many other things). My mom took one box of binders to Goodwill and he noticed. "A box is missing..."
Watching Hoarders always makes me get up and get rid of a bunch of stuff and clean my house!
When I can’t find the motivation to wash the three dishes in my sink or mop the floors I did last week, I watch this show.
It really helps .
same
I wish they’d sent the bears and dolls to kids who actually needed them.
She's living on ss and still has health issues. I'm sure she can use whatever money she gets. Also, many people go to toy auctions to buy lots of items to give away through charities so I'm thinking some of those dolls and bears will end up in children's arms. :)
@@HomesteadingWays good point
The dolls maybe would be taken but many places won't take stuffed animals as donation because they don't know where they come from or if they could be infested with bugs.
@@katepausig8562That makes sense, but I know a humanitarian service that gives stuff like that to kids in 3rd world countries. I don't think they'd be too concerned about that.
Apparently she pulled the bears from the auction and got them back to her house after the show left
At least it's teddy bears you know. And not junk and trash. I collect stuffed animals but dont have that many.
Very true. The hoards with trash and live animals are extremely dangerous.
@@bonniehowell4259 not to mention extremely gross. Some things I see on here makes my eyeballs throw up, turn inside out, and roll back.....it's happened before. Yeah.. 😜
I don't want collect anything.
The story about being robbed is fairly typical of severe hoarders - it isn’t true, but they seem to believe that they have been robbed.
Some commenters have noted that delusions of thieves have been tied to pre-dementia. It's not a guarantee, ofc, but it's in the realm of possibilities. A certified mental health clinician should be able to determine what is really going on.
What makes it even crazier is that nobody would want anything that comes out of a hoarder house.
There are so many sweet, troubled elderly people in our society...my heart broke for her in the first twenty seconds. I am glad her children showed up for her; she needs help. I wish we could help every troubled elder 😞
It’s so sad that she called to get every bear back! There was just something off about this whole show, you should watch the full length. She just seemed unreal
it was real. Thats my grandma
@@ahmadiafuller2102 so sad. It seemed she was feeling the pressure of it. Praying she got the help she needed and realized the Lord was what she needed and got help.
How can she spend 1mil and not care when I buy something I regret wasting my money 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Right! Should have paid off her mortgage or bought a duplex for cash (live in one side, rent the other). This is an old episode and she could have easily done one or the other at that time and still have a little left for eBay.
This is a mental illness she doesn't choose to spend this vast amount of money. I have first hand experience of this.
@CurlyG65 good to be so self righteous and perfect
I think its easier to justify a bunch of smaller purchases so you buy more and lose track rather than make a few large purchases that are much more noticeable.
You don’t understand because you don’t have severe psychological problems as she did.
I feel as if this woman mostly needs to move either at a relative's, an institution, or a smaller house that she can handle and that can handle her... I hope she'll get over her buying addiction!
She needs something real to hug 😢
Unfortunately I think her problems are compounding if dementia or whatever is causing her paranoia only worsens. Sad.
At the point she's at, she may need a conservator over her estate; and if her mental faculties are on a serious decline, she may need a conservator of the person as well. She seems like the perfect example of why conservatorships are useful.
I feel really bad for her she isn't well. I think the stuffed animals gave her comfort.
This is NOT what Theodore Roosevelt had in mind 😐
Hahaha!! Underrated :-)
That's a brave lady. It takes real grit to be so bogged down in a situation, scared to let go of something you love and find comforting, and go ahead and do it anyway. I hope it helps clear her mind and lift her spirits - I'm sure it will!
The family may wish to see if they can set up a Representative Payee, who is responsible for her finances. I had one for many years, as I was too unwell to take care of my finances. A friend, or family member can do it, as long as they are, like mine was, absolutely trust worthy.
She described the comfort she gets from her bears so sweet.
Less 'sweet' and more 'revealing' ...
@@C345OFR As a person who suffers biochemical anxiety, I agree with both of you. I honestly thought "If cuddly teddy bears could take my anxiety away, how awesome would that be?" but of course they don't take away her anxiety, she only thinks they do, when they likely fuel the compulsion and anxiety.
they can build a teddy bear museum.
I would’ve like to see what her bears went for at auction. And I’m kind of confused at why they didn’t address this “stranger” stealing her bears. Cleaning the surface isn’t getting to the root of the problem. eBay leaves a long history of purchases. I would’ve asked her to pull up her purchase history, show me which bears were “stolen” and then found them in the pile for her to eliminate that fear.
You’re a good person!
She isn't just mistaken, she's suffering from psychosis. While I understand this strategy is meant to help her, such confrontation of her delusion is unlikely to do anything but make her combative and ruin trust in this setting and given time. I hope she has taken on treatment for her delusions since this episode. She has a great attitude and loving family.
The teddy bears were not auctioned. The full-length episode stated at the end that she later asked the auction house for return of all the bears.
@@babawali3021 😱
The bears she claims stolen were just covered by the addition of more bears, so many no longer could be seen or found by the lady. It was not a collection. Collections are organized and displayed. What a waste of her funds.
Claims is the operative word and qualifier of this delusional woman.
What kind of company gives you $1M when you quit? ???
None. They didn't tell the truth about where that money came from.
A job that gave her kidney cancer. That would definitely give you a million in severance package.
I love how Dr. Pheffer keeps a straight face when she claims someone has stolen all of her high quality bears.
Who else thinks she got scammed and some of her bears were well under 10 bucks.
Seems like a sweet lady inside. How she mentioned 'one of a kind' bears - it made me wonder if she could channel her love for them and their ability to comfort in to a ministry. Like learn to sew bears and give them to cancer patients or shelters and such.
“I will do whatever it takes.”
And... Scene!
Right? There was so much awful overacting in this one, ugh.

My thougts!
You only need one teddy bear to cuddle
A dog is better :-)❤️
Only one bear is not enough i have the same problem but i have only one room 😀😃😄
Same I thought
This snippet video left out the most important part at the end of the full episode. A few days later she changes her mind and all 3 truckloads of teddy bears are returned to her.
Nooooo .... 😳
Seriously?
So instead of paying off her house with the severance package, she spends it on useless items.
It's a mental disorder.
Must be nice, huh?
Thats what mental illness does .OCD / Hoarding disorder .
@Nina you are rude !! Clearly you don't understand!,
It is so refreshing to see a hoarder who realizes she has a problem, is willing to change, and is grateful for the help. I am currently working with a junk removal company to get rid of accumulated media and miscellaneous clutter. However, my hoard is not nearly as large as the ones I see on this show. I certainly would be grateful if a team came out to help me for free!
She describes what she does with the Bears: she cuddles them. When she feel sad. But this can't be all that matters about it, cause she needed always a new Bear. All the Bears she had already did not help her! Some Problem with her Father and Protection I guess.
Maybe as she think someone is in the House stealing her Bears, this might be a reminder on the Accident that harmed her Son and ended her Carrear (together with her Cancer). For me it is clear that Hoarding was not her first Problem, it was how she tried to heal her Life.
After many Years she felt more and more sad so she wanted a Change. I hope the After Care Therapy will bring her real Issues to Light and turn this Energy for Good. For her to be free! ❤❤❤
I heard from my Inner Voices that she is allowed to keep 10 important Bears. Those are her Helpers for her next Years. But it can be a good Idea to write a Story about every Bear and communicate with the Quality this special Bear is talking about. It could become an education Book for Kids and Adults. She's a great Mum. ❤❤❤
I would be so angry if this were my mother. The sheer irresponsibility is astounding.
True, but where were kids then. She is obviously very vulnerable and it appears she may have been suffering from some sort of mental illness outside of being a hoarder...Family what happened
She wasn’t raised like you, she doesn’t know what you know. Her life experiences are so different than you and her mental state is different too. It’s easy to judge others based on their differences. People don’t like what they don’t understand and you don’t understand her. That’s all. I get that it’s frustrating finding out we’re all in different places, but she’s progressing here and that’s all that really matters. It’s good to see others progress even though we start at different starting points in our lives. As long as we get a little better each day that’s all that matters.
You would be angry at your mom for being ill? This is an illness and the fact that she thinks others are stealing her bears shows signs of early onset alzheimer. Chemo treatments can cause that. She had cancer. You can be frustrated at the illnesses, but why be angry at your mom when she is sick😕
@@gongoozleriam9783 how can you get angry at someone about their stuff?
She is so broken poor lady i really hope she finds the help and gets through this is hard to hear her say someone is taking everything from me when is not true 🙏
Her hair is gorgeous. Her children are beautiful. She seems like such a sweet soul.
I just.wanted to hug her so much while she broke down😢 so proud of her!!
You have to wonder if some of these people with therapy get medication and that will help them to get better. Since hoarding is a form of OCD there is medication that can help treat OCD along with cognitive behavioral therapy. You have to help if these people will get that kind of treatment.
Note: re an episode of “Hoarders”, the teddy bear collector. I’ve got OCD, too, but mine doesn’t manifest itself that way. I do, however, take an OTC medicine for my OCD. It’s called NAC. It does help. But all the initials involved are crazy-making for me! 😂!
This seemed a bit staged. 6:30 The lady said “they dumped all the top quality boxed bears into the pile so that the house looked like it was still full of clutter.” I have a feeling the team from Hoaders must of done this to better stage the show.
I recommend the full episode where she expands on her delusion that a stranger has been living in her full house undetected, making themselves known only by stealing her bears and replacing them with more bears. She is not referring to the crew or producers of the show.
I had a 3500 soft house with just 35 furniture items in it and some clothes, and Hoarders just dumped 40 tons of trash items in there and said I had a problem. 😂
with every hoarder i have ever seen, you can tell they have experienced a trauma that broke them, its extremely sad to see
I cleaned my house from 9am to 7pm today and still feel like its dirty but watching this, my house is clean.
Do they get a dose of xanax on the 2day??? They seem so different
I love this show it keeps me on point to donate donate donate..thank u hoarders..the episodes are the BEST
Once all the Teddy bears were gone that house was pure 1977 underneath-it reminded me of my friends house in the 70's.
That light shade tho! 😍 what a beautiful room.
She needs too put the collection back on ebay. And then disconnect the internet!! She's a shop a holic!!
I think bidding on EBay for her is a form of gambling addiction.
She could have just one dog and it would make her happier than million dolls and teddies.
Doubt it - it would just mean she'd end up with millions of dogs instead
@@C345OFR that is possible
Who the heck gets a million dollar severance when it's not the company's fault you get sick?
When I just can't seem to get motivated to clean I watch Hoarders. After 15 minutes I have to get up and clean! Don't know why that is, it just makes me need to achieve absolute clean and order.
Wonder what kind of job gives a million dollar severance package??? I want that job!!!
A computer programmer is all it said!
Same here!!!!!
@@christiephillips106 programmers don't nearly make that much; sounds like an accident or some other kinda payoff... who knows? maybe even hushmoney lol..
@@curburfosho lol... maybe she worked in a lab in wuhan lol
Mabe in a 90ies-Internet-startup-company in Silicon-valley(i read she lives in the bay-area).At this years before the dotcom-crisis many who even could write the word"internet" correctly earned more 100.000$ a year.
My heart really broke for this woman. I hope she gets help. The fear that someone is hiding in her home and taking her bears sounds like something happened in childhood. Could have been as small as her parents throwing out or donating a bear she loved and it has dominated her her whole life
As one who has collected a few bears in my life, she has an immense collection of valuable bears there. Did they try to even sell them on EBay? They could have made back some good money on them. Poor thing probably has a form of dementia from her previous cancer issue. Don't know if there is anyone in the home but hopefully therapy and the right meds will see her through this.
They worked with an auction company to recoup all the funds they reasonably could.
She pulled the bears from auction someone in the comments said
aw she’s such a sweet woman
That size home in California-- $2 million as is. $ 1 million spent on ebay -- tragic. I hope she gets good treatment she is so beautiful and deserves health.
Who gets a million dollar severance package!? Did she work for the mafia?
Yes very strange. Only ceos and fishy banking execs get those king of severance packages
I dont like how the therapist dealt with her, seeing her teddy bears outside really put her in distress. And he felt so distant and stand offish, like he was just there to observe and diagnose, not interact and intervene.
She has a big, beautiful home. I hope she can be happy now 💗
Where is the proceeds from the auction of Jackie's bears? Will she be getting her money?
I saw the full episode and at the end they stated that she changed her mind and had all the bears returned to her.
This feels like one of the cleaner episodes of hoarders lol
I saw this on tv and tbh her crying sounds like a laughing
OK, kids, will you please give your poor Mom a hug? That’s all she needs…LOVE
The way this has all unfolded is both incredible and terrible
All of those teddy bears I would be taking them to a children's hospital .and then I would start handing them out.. lol ha ha. As well as homeless shelters and then hand them to the children..
Such a bummer when hoarders get their hands on a big space. It is overwhelming for them, and a huge burden for the loved ones. Hoarding of any size is a burden. Big hoards is crushing. God bless these teams. Saying someone is stealing her bears. Oh boy. Fix it Jesus!
Thin line between genius and madness. She was obviously extremely successful and highly intelligent.
9:32 w h o a- that's insanely nice
See theirs white people helping black people and black people white people let's help each other and love each. Let be our best a grow.
its pretty much a 1 way street
Hmmm and I thought it was just people helping people.
Was there a real need to bring up race?
@@SeamHead33 explain what u mean?
Because the news and people say that all white people are racist but theirs good and bad people in the world form all race
What a great employer to give her a million dollar severance package. She should have paid her mortgage off first.
When the son started his hand injury story i assumed it happened when he was 10--14 but instead he was in his last year of hs so 17-19. What 17 year old plays with at least a cherry bomb size firework indoors with no place to throw it. If he was outside then ok he was a kid being stupid but indoors at his age is just inexcusable.
Ive seen people hoard much less pleasant things
Strangers stealing her bears 🐻 wtf!!! Lol
Lol
The crocodile tear moments were hilarious 🤣😂🦎 Aunt Song from Crooklyn
Yup someone lives in the trash and only comes out of the trash when your sleeping. DELUSIONAL
