Eleven-year-old Naomi Oakes was recently diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia - an aggressive type of cancer, which will require up to nine months of intensive therapy in the hospital.
Naomi was devastated when she realized her long hospital stay would mean she had to miss Swift's concert in Phoenix, Arizona.
Her father, Dan, trying to bolster his daughter's spirits, posted a YouTube video, showing his daughter singing Taylor Swift's hit, "Bad Blood."
Swift learned of the video, and decided to help with more than an Instagram post. She made a huge donation, instantly smashing the family's GoFundMe target of $30,000 and also made brave little Naomi's day. Watch her reaction below:
