In this highly emotional interview, Diaz opens up about her controversial decision, never-before-told details of her final day, and why he is urging support for death-with-dignity legislation, meant to give mentally competent, terminally ill adults the option to access the medical practice of aid in dying.

March 22- A Former Oprah Show Guest's Shocking Discovery & Stunning Change of Heart

In this special one-hour interview, Oprah sits down for a riveting follow up with Willie Jessop, the former spokesperson of the breakaway Mormon sect, the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Back in 2009, Jessop allowed the 'Oprah' show cameras unprecedented access to the church's Yearning for Zion ranch in Texas, which had been under intense media scrutiny after it was raided by state and federal authorities on charges that underage girls were being sexually abused on the compound. At the time, Jessop adamantly denied all charges and fiercely defended FLDS leader Warren Jeffs who was in jail and accused of sexually molesting underage girls who he forced into marriage. Two years after Oprah's visit to the YFZ, Willie Jessop underwent a dramatic change of heart after discovering shocking evidence of Warren Jeffs forcing underage girls into group sex. Warren Jeffs is currently serving a life sentence for charges related to sexual abuse of two minors. In this revelatory hour, Willie opens up what he calls his "catastrophic crisis of faith" and what he is doing now to help his community recover and restore their lives.

Hughley from his New York City apartment on his rough upbringing, how he escaped gang life and in a very emotional moment is reduce to tears when talking about his son with Asperger Syndrome. Then, catch up with one of Oprah's favorite teachers of all-time, Ron Clark, who continues to make a difference in children's lives at the groundbreaking Ron Clark Academy in Atlanta. Next, Haitian-born actress Garcelle Beauvais tells the inspiring and jaw-dropping story of how she broke into the Hollywood scene and the truth about picking up the pieces of her life when a personal email she sent was leaked to the press. Finally, Oscar-winning actress Estelle Parsons, a veteran in the business for over 60 years, still a spitfire at her New York City home on how she stays as spry as ever; and an update on an 'Oprah' show first in 2009 with animal rights activist Casey Anderson and Brutus the 900 pound Grizzly Bear.
