Hi Ellen,
I loved your interview with Madonna!
You mentioned that the letter Madonna wrote would be on your website. Where? It is very inspiring and I have 3 amazing children that I want to share it with. It was so beautifully written!
Thank you!

Hi
Since I couldn't find Ellen email, would you please give to her this message...Thank you
Dear Ellen,
I know you have heard thousand of times how wonderful you are because you simply are!!! You are an inspiration for humanity.... and for me that I am married with another human being who happen to have the same sex gender. Thank you for teaching other that we are just normal.
Ellen, I love the way you live, the work you do, the success you have and your bank account !!!
I am married with the most wonderful woman on earth; we have a human loving relationship. I am from Colombia. I studied psychology and specialize in trauma and my wife is from Spain, where we live. She is also a psychologist and she's played basketball for 25 years!
We would love to move to the United States to work and live. There is an opportunity to apply for a green card in a lottery, but since we are a gay couple we can't apply. Due the lack of knowledge and prejudices there are many rights we can't have because we are gay.
I wonder if there is something you can find out about this situation. The lawyer said we need to get a job. I used to work in NYC for 5 years as a psychologist, but this place no longer exists. I can send you my resume. I am a very good psychotherapist. Maybe you know an organization that could hire us. My wife wants to work with children --- she loves them.
I am sending you a picture of us. Looking forward to hear form you !
Warmly,
Matha

Missed the show, it didn't air in Baltimore...due to Hurricane Sandy. Are you going to show it again?
I am so excited! I am watching the show with Madonna ...I absolutely love her.. I am almost 60 and still have the Blond Ambitions tee shirt from way back when. Love it!
Great show Ellen! Wow! Just from hearing a portion of the inspiring advice Madonna gave you and the quote from Martha Graham that she sent you I can see how it not only inspired you but also helped free you. God bless you both :^)
