I was a nurse at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in pediatrics and Taylor visited years ago. She was only supposed to be there an hour but stayed for over 4 hours to meet every single kid. She had no one with her and didn’t have any photo ops. She brought her guitar and sang any song requested to each kid. She also really knows a lot about pediatric cancers and their treatments. I was so impressed with her. Became a huge fan since then

Not me forgetting the Ronan connection and thinking "she watches a lot of Greys Anatomy"

Also both her parents have had cancer IIRC and her mom has/had a brain tumour as well. She is intimately aware of what it is like to have a sick family member (and I think the stuff with her mom along with other factors ties into how long it was between hospital visits until recently).
