Deductions & credits

Closing Documents show $1K "Borrower-Paid" and $7K "Paid by
Others".  So, now it makes sense why the form 1098 showing a lower number.  I am not sure why the $7K was categorized paid by others, because I paid for the full $8K.  So, do I still get to deduct the full $8K, and overwrite what's on the form 1098?  Thanks again.
