Hi, Tyra my name is Kristi and I just saw you'r commerical for the mothers day give away so I hoped on you'r web site to write you and tell you what an amazeing mother I really have. She has done so much for me it would be impossible to write it all down. She has always been there for me and when she needed something she gave it up to do for me. She never really has had a chance or time to do her and I feel this is her time to shine. Please Tyra help my mother smile today because she really needs it.

Hi Tyra. My name is Shana and I am from NYC. I am watching your show on prostitution and I saw the commercial for your mother's day show and immediatley thought of my mom. She is honestly the greatest person in the entire world. I have two other siblings and my mom has gone above and beyond to give us an amazing life. My parents are both from Jamaica and went through some pretty tough situtations to get where they are today. Because my mom spends so much time and money on my siblings and I, she never has any time or money left to do anything for herself. I would greatly appreciate it if she was picked for a makeover. Between sending us all to a private school to get the best educations, to taking out a huge loan to send my bi-polar sister to a special school in upstate New York and her job, she never has any time for herself. I really just want her to know how much I appreciate her and everything she has done. Thanks.

Hey Tyra!,

My name is Alisse and I am a full time student and I also work part time to pay for my schooling, my car, and all my other expenses. I have a wonderful boyfriend who I have been with for over a year and a half and he loves me just the way I am. Except, since starting college I feel like I have let myself go. My life consists of going to school and then going to work. I feel like I don't have any time for myself. I would really appreciate a makeover to build up my confidence again and be the outgoing girl I used to be. Love you and your show!

Thanks for your
consideration,

Alisse

HiTyra, my name is Mary Elizabeth and the reason that I am sending this to you is because I love my mom so much. She has done so much for myself and my sister and brother. She has ne when she was 16 years old then married my dad at 18, one thing she did not know when she married him is that he would turn abusive. She tried everything that she could to make things work with him, had 2 more kids, moved in his moms house for him, home schooled us kids for him because he did not trust her. Then when I was 11 years old she decided that she had enough and told him to leave our home. He came to our house one night DRUNK and threw her down stairs, and started choking her, I walked down to find my dad on top of my mom choking her and I called 911. The police came, but they NEVER did anything about it because my dad left before they got to our house. Tyra my mom really deserves a makeover sge has been so wonderful to us kids and I just want to show her how much I Love her. Please help me give my mom a Mothers Day to remember! Love, Mary Elizabeth

Thanks for listening and you are such a beautiful person inside and out, I am so proud of everything you have done and still doing for all of us.

Tyra,
Hi,Brandii here and im 14 years young. My mom is 35 and a mother of 2 ( including me). Shes about 5' so she has a hard time seeing eye to eye with people because shes so young spirited. But thats not what her wardrobe says. All its made up of is t-shirts and those REALLY ANNOYING SWISHY PANTS!!!! theres only a couple of nicer things in her wardrobe that are nice. and i know what she wants from experience in the mall with her. Shell see something she LOVES TO DEATH but says she cant buy it because its "to expensive". Her life is also based on fixing up the house and trying to keep up with my little brother. So i want her to have clothes she can be comfortable wearing anywhere at any time. And since I wouldnt have the money to buy her clothes for mothers day i was hoping thats where you can help me. My mom and i love you and your show. And i am really hoping maybe youll cansider her. So you can help me give my mother the time of her life on your show and give her the types of clothes shes always dreamed of ( but in time for mothers day please.) I thank you lots for your time tyra. and im in need of your help so i hope youll consider choosing my mom and i to be on your show(because i also need your help too! But thats besides the point!).Thanks again!

I am sending this to you to request a makeover. I had my children late in life: 30, 35, and 41. The 1st and last pregnancies were a surprize. The last pregnancy I told my OB @ 8 wks. pregnant that I was either having more than one baby or that I was dying of some terminal disease. I was right, twins, a boy and a girl. Keeana got her name because my husband lived, met and got married in Hawaii. I nursed my first for 2 yrs. Cyrena was God's little joke that he played on me, she had allergies to soy and milk protiens and I nursed her for 2 yrs. and 9 mths. She cried cronically for the first year and behaved like an autistic child. And to think I named her Cyrena!? There was nothing Serene about her for two years. I could not have any ice cream or dairy products or any soy products. Both of my daughters are GATE and honor students most likely due to breastfeeding confirmed in a Harvard Study. Keeana is stunning with classic good looks and Cyrena has Amerasian eyes and looks like the girl on the cover of Time or Life that was famous, she was Middle Eastener girl and wore a black veil on her head. The mix of my husbands Guamainian backround with some Spanish and posibly some Chinese. I am Half Irish and although my Mother was given up for adoption due to the fact that she conceived in the back seat of a car in 1939 and was an unmarried women who are from a large family whose parents were immigrants from Holland. She went out of town for a while to work as a "maid" while she accually lived at an adoption home for unwed mothers. On the papers my mother received before she got sick the information about my grandfather was just that he was tall, dark, and employed as a tap dancer at the time. Anyway, My husband was hit from behind at a red light and was fired from his job in 2002. Meanwhile my Mom almost died Thanksgiving nite after 3 doctors told me there was little hope of her pulling through the night, I prayed to St. Jude and anointed her with oil and slept at her bedside that night and she made it. After she was to be released from the hospital 12-24-2002. I became her next of kin and took care of her at home with my family for the next six months. I had PT and OT come to my house to teach her how to walk again etc. after being in the hospital for over a month. I have been in school twice for my RN, once in Hawaii and again after Cyrena was 6mths old and had worked in a hospital for three years. My husband worked with my father and my father also owned the apt. that we lived in so we only had to pay half the rent. This was also a tax break for my father being that a blood reletive was living in one of the apts. in the triple decker apt. My father slipped at work and at the deposition my husband declined to lie and say he had witnessed the fall and my father evicted us. My husband once found an envelope of money at an ATM and went into the bank and returned it. No reward. We moved to Chula Vista, CA from Worcester, MA when I was 6 months pregnant with the twins. My twins were born vaginally after going into labor while touring the maternity ward. They were 4 and 1/4 lbs. each. Sean was first we always said that if we had a boy he would be named Sean, a nice Irish name, and Michael would be his middle name after his father. So he is Sean Michael Cruz. Tasi means "ocean" in my husbands native language of Chammorro, which only a few thousand people speak fluently. Tasi's middle name is Danielle after my best friend Father Daniel Egan who had passed away a few years before. There is a book written about him that is out of print but you could probably buy a copy. He was asked by Mother Teresa to start some Narcotics Anonymous mtgs. in Calcutta and we kept in touch while he was there and I was in Hawaii. The name of the book is, "The Junkie Priest". We would love to take the children to Guam someday. The children are: 14,11,4 and 4 now. Due to my lack of calcium intake while nursing Cyrena I have chipped teeth and need some dental work such as whitening and crowns. My breasts have had to be biopsied and due to the fact that my Mother had two lumpectomies I say that my breasts are just fine the way they are. I am 45 years young and married 17 years on the coming June 1st. These were WORKING BREASTS! Anyway, I have written too long and have four children downstairs who are all dying to get this computer. CHAOS!!! Thanks for putting together such a fun show. If I get to see both you and Ellen, I'm good for the day. Keep doing what your doing cause it's working. P.S. My kids would be great for print work but we can't afford ProScout which they were offered. Is there a place in S.D. area where you can just bring in your child and if they want to test them they will give them work. Thanks, peace, Brenda Cruz

Hi Tyra,
My name is Liberty Webster I am from a small town in MIchigan named Dryden. It is like Mayberry and I am not joking> I am 30.I am a mother of 4 kids 13,10,5,4.I also work full time but I dont want my article to be a sob story. I use to be super cute but in the past few years I have slipped into the mom wardrobe. Runing pants,t shirts and Nike shoxs. Please help me look as hot as I know I can.
P.S. hurry summer is coming

Dear Tyra, I have a special friend that is in the hospital having had a tripal bypass last week. The doctor found another while in there so it ended up being 4. Last year she had breast cancer and the year before breast cancer on the other side. That is only half of what 41 year old Susie has endured! She works hard and is a great inspiration with her upbeat and giving spirit. She is going to get married as soon as she is on her feet. It will be for the first and only time. Her hospital stay is using up all her vacation time, so money is a problem. She doesn't want any thing big. I thought if you or anyone you know of could help this special lady, it would be so good for her. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Larae
