Sunday In Depth - Against All Odds

NORTON - Last August the lives of Danielle Cann, 16, and her 13-year-old sister, Brittany, hung in the balance.
Shortly after the girls and their mother, Elizabeth, returned to their home from a Tweeter Center concert, Elizabeth's former boyfriend, Robert McDermott, entered their home near Norton Reservoir and shot and critically wounded the three women and killed their dog. Elizabeth, 44, died.
"The first thing I remember is waking up to the ambulance and the EMTs," said Brittany, who now lives with Danielle, her father, Wayne, her stepmom, Melissa, and her two half brothers and stepsister in Easton.
Brittany, Danielle and Elizabeth lay undiscovered in their home for 30 hours before her father and stepmother entered the house to find the carnage.

FOXBORO - Brittany Cann made balloon animals during a concert Sunday.
Six months ago, that feat seemed impossible as Cann, 13, and her 16-year-old sister, Danielle, were fighting for their lives after the brutal August shooting in their home near the Norton Reservoir.
The girls and their mother, Elizabeth, had just returned from a concert when Elizabeth's ex-boyfriend, Robert McDermott, shot and critically wounded the women and killed their dog. Elizabeth, 44, died.
