- What's up, y'all? we're back with Shannen Doherty,
along with Allie and Al.
Give them a hand.
(everyone applauds)
Al is Allie's UPS driver and a cancer survivor.
When he learned she was battling breast cancer,
they developed a friendship that's helped her keep positive
throughout her ordeal.
Their story has gone viral,
and there's someone here who wanted to meet them in person.
So it's actually someone you know.
Someone who's missed you every day
since before the pandemic.
Let's welcome Allie's momma, Sherry.
(Allie crying)
(everyone applauding)
(inspirational music)
Come on out here!
Give her a hug!
(audience applauds)
- Allie, I love you.
(everyone applauds)
(audience cheering)
I love you so much.
- How did you ever hide this from me?
I love you, Mom.
Mom, this is Al.
- [Sherry] Hi Al, nice to meet you.
- Of course.
- Oh my gosh, here. Oh my gosh, here you go.
Nice to meet you.
I'd hug you but I'm legally not allowed to right now,
but you if you want to have a seat,
or just hold each other that's great.
- (cries) Oh my gosh, here.
- Ohhh, there's nothing like that, man,
when your momma walks in, and you're just like,
you haven't seen, that's, that's all of our...
Well this, this is Al.
Sherry, have y'all met?
- Hi, how are you?
- [Sherry] I've heard of you so much.
- Well, thank you.
- I've heard, nice to meet you too.
- Nice to meet you as well.
(Shannen laughs)
I was so much looking forward to this.
Oh my gosh, I know it's so exciting.
So wait, it must have been so hard
to be away from Allie during her treatment.
But also kind of cool to hear that
somebody was looking out for her,
a little angel, right?
- Oh, yes.
When I heard, you know, what you had done for Allie,
climbing those stairs for her with the packages,
and then becoming her friend.
Thank you so much, Al.
- [Al] No problem. - You're such a fine man.
- Thank you.
- [Kelly] Aww.
(audience applauds and whistles)
- [Allie] You look beautiful.
- You're so... I love you right now.
Everything you, you're such a light.
- I can't believe this.
I just like never would of expected this.
I can't believe, thank you.
- [Kelly] Oh my gosh.
- She knows how I am in busy streets.
(everyone laughs)
I've never seen so many lanes.
(Allie laughs)
- But I love that you're here for her
because I know it's been hard on a lot of families,
like not even going through something as difficult,
like it's just been hard to not be able to hug your babies.
- [Sherry] That's right.
- You know?
And so we were very excited for y'all to be able to do this.
But anything you want to say to them?
- I had offered to,
for Allie to come and live with me
during her treatments and everything.
But since she explained that she had such a fine oncologist,
and such a fine breast cancer doctor,
that it would be best for her to stay in New York City.
- [Kelly] Yeah.
- So that's what happened.
- So you had someone looking out for your baby.
- Well, I've gone through breast cancer as well.
- [Kelly] Wow.
- Yes, I have.
- [Kelly] Wow.
- I'm five years survival.
(everyone applauds)
- Oh my gosh.
So wait, that was probably one of the reasons why
is you knew what she was about to experience.
- Yes, I did.
The chemo, the radiation, and the surgery.
Yes, I've been through it all, yes.
- [Kelly] Wow.
So that must have been even more difficult
to have her not with you.
- Yes, yes it was, it really was.
- [Kelly] Wow.
- We kept in contact a whole lot.
- She was amazing.
She would send me, you know,
all the things that helped her during her journey.
And, we FaceTimed.
We started just FaceTiming a lot,
and she was like "this is to be expected."
Like certain mouthwashes she would send me
to help get, you know,
it helps with the mouth and...
- Yeah.
- And just she prepared me.
So but it's not the same as having her here.
I just can't... I'm so, so in shock.
- [Kelly] No, I love that, I love that.
But it is amazing though like you, you knew
she was going to go through that,
and for God to send little angel,
- He did.
- [Kelly] You know, in the form of a UPS man.
- A blessing, yes, a blessing.
- [Kelly] Yeah, that's a blessing.
- She always would say,
"thank him for me, thank him for me."
So, I hope I did that enough, my mom said that.
- If not, she just said it we're good.
(everyone laughs)
- Shannen, I mean, did you have anybody in your life
that had gone through, you know, what you're going through?
Did you have that?
- No, I mean, I had a girlfriend
that was going through it at the same time as me.
- [Kelly] Oh, that's right.
- Yeah.
Her story did not end like mine or like any of us here.
But, the fact that we had each other during that time
was also extremely special 'cause we were able to support
each other.
But I mean, just having support period, right?
- Great.
- [Shannon] Is so amazing.
- It's important.
- [Shannon] Having, yeah I mean.
- Very important.
- You being there for her,
and having your mom with FaceTime.
It's just, it's so important to have that
when you're going through something as terrible as cancer
with the chemo and the radiation, everything else, so.
This is so beautiful.
I'm so honored to be a part of this, thank you.
- [Kelly] Oh my gosh.
(audience applauds)
(Allie cries)
- Unfortunately, Allie's sister Krista couldn't be here,
but wanted to be a part of this reunion,
and sent Allie a message.
Check this out.
- Hi Allie, it's Krista.
I love you so much.
Oh my gosh, you are just my little ray of sunshine,
and I'm so proud of you.
You are inspiring, you're amazing, you're creative.
You have this inner strength that is just so commendable.
I miss you so much.
- [Kelly] Oh my Gosh.
(audience applauds)
- Thank you!
- Oh no, it was, first of all,
she's standing in front of the cutest little place ever.
I'm like, where is she?
I want to go there.
I want to buy all the little trinkets I just saw.
But I understand, did she just get married?
And you haven't even met him right?
- No, I couldn't go because of COVID, and then I got sick.
So I couldn't go because I got...
because I was in treatment.
And so yeah, I've never met her husband, yeah.
But she's so happy.
- You didn't even give the seal of approval.
(Allie and Kelly laugh)
Okay, so I'm not big into lying
unless it's a good lie, and that was a pretty good one.
But it's time to come clean, I lied.
'Cause Krista, she's totally here.
- What?!?
- [Kelly] So she wants... And so is Mike!
- What?!?
- [Kelly] So come on out.
- What?!?
Oh my God.
(audience applauds)
(inspirational music)
- Hi!
- Hello.
- This is Mike.
This is my husband.
- Oh my gosh.
- [Mike] Hi.
- Oh, Mike.
- [Mike] You're welcome.
You're family.
- [Allie] You're family.
You're family.
Oh my gosh.
This is Al.
- [Krista] Hi Al.
- [Allie] This is Al, this is Krista.
[Krista] Thank you, you are such a wonderful man.
Thank you for taking care such good care of my sister.
- [Al] My pleasure. - [Mike] Thank you so much.
- [Al] No problem.
- Thank you for being so wonderful to my sister,
it means the world to me.
Oh my gosh, my family is here!
What is happening?
(audience cheers and applauds)
This is.
- Y'all can have a seat if you'd like a seat over there.
[Krista] Oh sure, thank you.
(audience applauds)
- Hi.
- Oh my gosh, I love this moment.
- This is insane!
(joyful laughter)
- I mean, I'm forget I'm learning things
and that they did not...
There was no way I had any idea.
- [Kelly] Oh my gosh, I love it though.
- [Sherry] It was supposed to be a surprise.
- Yeah! You did good.
(Kelly laughs)
- She's freaking out.
Well, I wanted you to get some time together.
So we're sending you all, including Al and Al's wife,
on a four night getaway to the award winning
Sonesta Resort Hilton Head Island in South Carolina.
(audience cheering)
[Kelly] Luxurious oceanfront rooms,
a treatment at the hotel spa, daily breakfast,
a sunset dinner at the iconic Skull Creek Boathouse,
and a golf and cruise around Hilton Head Island.

Hilton Head Island Visitor and Convention Bureau.
I hope y'all have the most amazing time.
- Thank you, thank you so much!
- You know what, COVID took a lot from us,
but there are some really beautiful moments
that are yet to come for all of us now, you know.
- Absolutely, yes.
- So I'm still looking forward to y'all
getting to actually meet and hang out. (happy laughter)
- And it's just, it's such a wonderful thing
you know, when we are separated from the ones we love,
but those people that come in, strangers out of nowhere,
and are like little angels in our lives.
So thank you for sharing y'all's story, all right?
- Thank you so much, Kelly!
(audience cheers and applauds)
- [Kelly] No, we loved it, we loved it.
- [Sherry] Thank you Kelly. - [Kelly] Absolutely!
