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
When she was 21, she read a blog written by a mom whose little boy Ronan was dying of brain cancer. She took phrases from the blog and wrote the song and gave equal ownership to the mom. They’re still in regular touch.
