Taylor Swift spends hours at NYC Cancer Center
Taylor Swift has a pure heart. Like so many other
celebs of her caliber, she makes time in her schedule for the less fortunate
and sick fans. But she really goes way above and totally beyond. Find out how!
The singer visited Shelby Huff, a teenager suffering
from Aplastic Anemia, where the bone marrow attacks itself, at Memorial Sloan
Kettering Cancer Center in NYC. Swift didn’t just do a drive-by, saying “hi,”
shaking hands, smiling, taking pictures, giving gifts and moving right along.
T. Swizzle was booked for an hour on the pediatric floor but wound up spending
five (!!!) hours with the patients.
Solid gold — that’s what Swift’s ticker is made of.
Swift learned about what Shelby is battling — she developed a form of lymphoma
after a transplant and is in the middle of a life-saving clinical trial — and
sat on the bed with her, even though she had to wear rubber gloves and a face
mask while interacting with the young girl. You’d have thought that Swift and
Huff were longtime girlfriends, since Swift treated her so warmly. Shelby, 17,
even said that she’d rather go through this, as opposed to an infant or a baby
suffering the same affliction.
Wow, right? The Swizz even said that her parents
considered naming her Shelby but they thought “Shelby Swift” would sound like
“She’ll be swift.”
