Guess who likes Sally Field, I mean really, really likes her? Human Rights Campaign, who just awarded the actress their Ally for Equality award. Her son, Sam Greisman, had the honor of presenting his mom with the award. And their speeches have left me bawling here at my desk, they're so beautiful. Sam says when he came out of the closet, Sally didn't just accept him. She embraced him: When I came out she didn't even bat an eye. In fact, she was overjoyed. Being gay was just one more thing she loved about me. She couldn't be more supportive of me. Sam says a lot of parents of gay children could learn a lot from his mother. He mentions the "It Gets Better" video campaign and says that in his home, "My mom made it better." And as if this weren't already turning into a five-hanky Sally Field moment, Sally's acceptance speech will just leave you, well, speechless.Image may be NSFW.
