Dying a slow painful death. Its logical. Right . You have a diamond, next door theres a disaster. Reporter here in florida there are more than 35,000 zombie homes. Three times the national average. New jersey and new york are next. In new jersey alone, zombie foreclosures increasing 109 from just one year ago. Like on the walking dead, it takes just one zombie to terrorize a neighborhood.

This is all the ceiling. What is this stuff . Reporter once owners vacate a home the bank is not obligated in many states to maintain it until foreclosure is done. That process can take years. There have been neighbors on this street living this house getting worse and worse for years. Yes. Years. Yes. Nothing they can do about it. No. Reporter mark says he tried to get help. Just to find out who owned it. I got one answer machine to another answer machine. I never, ever actually spoke to a human being. Reporter so we tried to find out. Property records tie the eyesore to Deutsche Bank national trust. They referred us to Mortgage Services bank of america. Who referred us to select quote services whos not responded to a request for comment. Not one has taken responsibility for the condition of the home. This has a mold issue. Reporter someone once paid over 100,000 for this house. Scary now, on debbies first visit she brought protection and carried a gun. Again that smell hits you. That is not good.

So weve seen this before in homes. Anything that has any value in a zombie house will be stripped. They take everything . Yeah. Youve got a shoe, someone ran out of here well i didnt think it could get worse after the chickens but it did. Weve seen lights back there at night. Reporter neighbor donna describes strange sounds late at night. We dont know whats back there and thats frightening in a way. Theres small children on this side, children on this side. And all of the neighbors are frightened by it. Reporter at homeowners meetings they address it with the bank. And the bank does nothing. What are we going to do about that house . Right. And no answers from the bank . Right. Reporter in a statement wells fargo, the Bank Associated with this socalled zombie mansion, says it has not been able to maintain the property because the owners have taken action that has delayed the process, including filing multiple bankruptcies. It is clear that there are banks allowing properties to deteriorate. If its insurance or any other reason, its unacceptable. Reporter new York Attorney general Eric Schneider man is proposing new legislation to hold banks accountable. Our neighborhood protection act is going to give the banks every incentive to complete a foreclosure quickly because they are going to have to maintain the property. Reporter the banks are pushing back. The new York Bankers Association saying in a statement, lenders favor a different approach to the one the attorney general has promoted. His approach focuses on maintenance rather than the core problem, which is the length of time it takes to complete the foreclosure. For now, thousands of americans just like mark are stuck. Somethings not right. And i would like a few answers. And i think a lot of other people in this country are in the same boat as i am. Reporter for nightline, gloria riviera, abc news, orlando. Up next when its time to give birth mops are choosing new options in and out of the hospital. But are they safe . Later, 50 years after the sound of music made movie history the hills are alive with the sound of music the reallife von trapps talk Family History and modern updates. But ive managed. Except that managing my symptoms was all i was doing. And when i finally told my doctor, he said humira is for adults like me who have tried other medications but still experience the symptoms of moderate to severe crohns disease. And that in clinical studies the majority of patients on humira saw significant symptom relief. And many achieved remission. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common and if youve had tb hepatitis b, are prone to infections or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Ask your gastroenterologist about humira. With humira, remission is possible. The real question that needs to be asked is what is it that we can do that is impactful . What the cloud enables is computing to empower cancer researchers. It used to take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome; with the microsoft cloud we can analyze 100 per day. Whatever i can do to help compute a cure for cancer, thats what id like to do. Im louis, and i quit smoking with chantix. I told myself for so long that i needed to quit smoking. I would quit then id go right back to it. Chantix absolutely helped me quit smoking.

Some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix.

Tell your doctor about any history of Mental Health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix or history of seizures. Dont take chantix if youve had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. If you develop these stop chantix and see your doctor right away as some can be lifethreatening.

Decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. Use caution when driving or operating machinery. Common side effects include nausea trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. Im not worried about smoking my next cigarette. To me that feels great. Ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. Whats with the suit . Oh, i had to go to the bank. If you look legit they give you special treatment. Seriously . Seriously, yeah. The banker dude set up my Checking Account so if i make one deposit a month, no monthly maintenance fee. Special treatment citizens bank, right . Yep. You know they do that one deposit checking thing for everyone, right . And. You got mustard on your suit. Actually, its your suit. One deposit checking.

Imagine choosing to do it without a roof over your head. A growing number of pregnant americans now making an extreme choice seizing control over how and where to deliver. They say its only natural. But is it safe . Reporter its the most primal act in a womans life. And yet modern medicine has turned birthing into a sterile medical procedure. So more and more women are rejecting the cookie cutter approach in favor of a more personalized birth plan. Some literally trekking into the wilderness to assure their babies are born in the wild. It is really pretty. Reporter peter and audrey byrd, whoin alaska, had a negative experience in the hospital with the birth of their 6yearold son. My labor was full of fear. Thats not something that i ever wanted to do again. Reporter for this baby they decided to go into the great outdoors. In a makeshift tent with no medical assistance. Which became part of a new lifetime series born in the wild. We are about 100 miles from the nearest road. No power lines run to the property. No phone lines. We dont have a sewer system. Its just us. Theres no neighbors. Theres no other families nearby. So we are very isolated. Reporter while this may be extreme, more women are taking control of their labor and delivery, according to dr. Jennifer ashton. Were certainly hearing a lot more about alternative births. In large measure that comes because women are growing more and more dissatisfied with whats being offered by their doctor. Reporter in suburban new jersey cheryl sodam is roughly 15 hours into labor. Her plan, to give birth to the third child in this tub. With midwives on hand. And her husband all suited up and acting as birthing coach. If it works out im just going to catch the baby. If it goes flying out of your hands . Yikes, wheres my baseball mitt . Reporter hours later, in the final stages of labor, cheryl changes her mind decides she wants to try pushing on the family sofa instead. Her midwives judy and casey keep her comfortable. Try and push, lets see what happens when you push. Maybe the babys ready. Reporter its a priority for this family to have everyone in the house, including the kids and the family dog, involved in the birthing experience. Even if theyre unsure what to make of it all. Is that the head . Reporter after 21 hours of birthing push, cheryl. Reporter a final push there. Reporter and a life emerges. Its a girl. Reporter the number of babies born in birding centers has increased more than 50 in the last decade. More top Medical Centers are offering their own natural birth options. The argument that a lot of women have about these alternative birthing practices is that there are less intervention asks that overall is safer for the mother and the baby. Reporter in nashville, Jennifer Horn is about to undergo her third csection. Unlike before where a surgical drape cut her off from the action, this time shell be able to see her baby being born. Very excited. And nervous. Reporter anesthesiologist dr. Sarah starr developed vanderbilts guidelines for this innovative csection. Like threading a needle. Great. Thread it in. Putting the ekg leads away from the front of the chest you can still monitor her heart rate from here but she can still have access to skin on skin later. Thats right. Reporter this curtain with cutout window will make all the difference. In a vaginal birth you dont see anything down there but you get to see the baby come out. Oh i see the baby reporter making it less like a surgery and more like a birth that the mother can take part in. Oh honey its a beautiful sight, isnt it . Congratulations. Oh, beautiful reporter Vanderbilt University Medical Center is one of a handful of u. S. Hospitals that offer a wide variety of options for every kind of birth. Another tweak in this birth process will allow the mom to snuggle the baby immediately after delivery. Within moments of the babys arrival sweet boy lets meet your mama. Babies who have that skin to skin in the first hour have higher rates of breastfeeding. Reporter mother and son are already bonding. While on the other side of the curtain, the surgeons are still hard at work. Youre still undergoing surgery, right jennifer . Im more relaxed and calm right now. To have him with me. Before, i was nervous. I dont even know the surgerys still going on. It didnt occur to you, sorry, i shouldnt have mentioned it. Okay, we have arrived at the hospital. Reporter in the same hospital mother to be Glenna Kramer is taking advantage of another unusual offering for pain relief. For her first baby its still a natural child bird no epidural, no obstetrician, only a midwife and nurse. To ease the pain she enjoys the soothing benefits of a hot tub, an option not available to women attached to ivs. Heres the twist. Weve got glenna using nitrous during a contraction. Reporter nitrous, nitrous ox said, aka, laughing gas. The stuff they use at the dentist. Shes using it to take the edge off. It more or less serves a purpose of calming me down and helping me relax and cope with the pain rather than taking the pain away. Reporter glenna believes by skipping the spinalnumbing anesthesia they wont be exposing her baby baby to the chemicals in the medication. Every contraction was i would say just as painful, just as intense without the nitrous oxide. Good job. There he is. Hes starting to crown, girl. You can see his head when youre pushing. Here he comes. Here he is. Reporter glenna is toughing it out without a scream. Good girl. Reporter and within seconds after giving birth watch. Grab your baby. Go get him. Reporter she reaches down and picks up her newborn baby boy for the first time. Cord still attached. Hes a big one. Be careful. Okay. Reporter she is unsfetered by iv cables and lucid enough to do so. Looks like a strong boy. Glenna did so great, we have a beautiful baby boy. Its great to finally see him. Her heads almost out, her heads almost out reporter its the exhilaration that inspires some women like audrey to skip the hospital entirely. Shes beautiful. You did it you did it, you did it.
