Taylor Swift donates 50k to cancer patient
Yeah, that’s obviously HER GLOWING HALO.
Swiftie Naomi Oakes counts the blond superstar as her favorite singer and was planning to attend Swift’s August 18 concert with her best friend in Phoenix.
According to Naomi’s GoFundMe page, she was recently diagnosed with an aggressive form leukemia known as Acute Myelogenous Leukemia.
The adorable brunette chose Swift’s “Bad Blood” as her fight song and is preparing to face the cancer head-on.
This prompted the family to try and get in touch with Taylor to ask if the singer could help out and perhaps share a #TeamNaomi post on Instagram.
Heading to Naomi’s GoFundMe page, TayTay casually popped several payments totalling $50,000 on there, along with a heartwarming message. Vincent previously covered the seasonally appropriate, iconic holiday song “All I Want for Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey back in December, “Talk Dirty” by Jason Derulo and Ariana Grande’s “Problem” last summer.
Speaking about the donation, Naomi’s uncle, Robert Percival, told Utah’s KUTV that he “broke down and cried”, adding: “It’s just incredible that there’s somebody with her celebrity that would think about people and be able to donate”.
Oh, and Naomi herself has seen the donation and comment and her reaction was everything.
The precious girl is sitting in her hospital bed with a huge grin on her face and appears to be staring at a phone in pure amazement. It’s obvious she hasn’t lost her spirit when she says in jest, “I seriously think I’m going to pass out”, bringing the whole room to laughter.
No, we’re not crying.
“We are so grateful for all the calls, texts, emails, visits, hugs, prayers, and kind words for our sweet Naomi”, Mr Oakes wrote on Facebook after the diagnosis.
Thank you, Swifty, for continuing to be an actual angel.
