Watch this Swiftie get the sweetest surprise from the children's hospital that feels Bigger than the Whole Sky!
All this young Swiftie had to do was...say yes!
Twelve-year-old Kelsey Farris is in and out of the Children's Hospital New Orleans as she battles sickle cell disease. She is always brightening the staff's days with her smile and witty dad jokes. After a challenging year for her that included a bone marrow transplant, the hospital knew she'd appreciate a lift, so they set to work.
Kelsey is a huge Taylor Swift fan, so with Taylor's music blasting, the hospital's CEO, doctors, and nurses brought a party to her bedside, where they surprised her with two tickets to the Era's Tour in a magical moment of celebration.
Watch to see Edie’s happy tears when she realizes she is going to the concert!
A young Swiftie, decked out in her "22" T-shirt and hat, was moved to tears when her mom delivered the surprise of a lifetime!
Edie had traveled to the famous Anfield Stadium in Liverpool, UK, to soak up the atmosphere of a Taylor Swift concert. Without a ticket, she expected to listen to her favorite singer from afar. She's hearing impaired and feared that the music outside the arena might be just a distant sound. But her mom, Louise Bulcroft, knew something Edie didn't.
Secretly, Louise had purchased last-minute tickets to the concert so her daughter could experience Taylor Swift up close, hearing each song loud and clear inside the stadium.
“We were able to adjust her hearing aids,” Louise shared. “And give her the surprise of her life.”

As "Swifties" worldwide know, being a fan of pop megastar, Taylor Swift can become something akin to a religion. And the Holy Grail is seeing her live!
Haley Pierce was well aware of her daughter Addison’s devotion, so when Taylor announced concert dates in Atlanta, Haley did everything she could to snag those coveted tickets.
“Like everyone else, I struggled to get tickets from Ticketmaster," she said. "I tried to buy from an individual online and got scammed."
Haley felt stumped, but after “crying and praying,” she managed to score pair of tickets and keep it a surprise.
“I didn’t tell Addie until the morning of the concert, “said Haley. “I asked her what she would like to do today, and she was bummed but said, ‘Let’s just go to Cinnabon.’ We stopped at the gas station, and I gave her the surprise of her life! We had a blast, and it was worth every single dime.”
