TAYLOR SWIFT’S LOVE FOR THE PATIENTS
In the clip, young patients expressed their excitement and appreciation for the singer’s visit.
One child said, “Happy birthday, Taylor!
It was special for you to come and visit me because I’ve always been kind of just, like, a normal, outcast kid.
For you to come and visit me makes me know that I’m not just a kid and I’m somebody special.”
Another young fan, dressed in a 1989 T-shirt, added, “You made me feel so special yesterday,” forming a heart with her hands.
A third patient showed off a doll that reminded her of Swift and wished her a happy birthday, according to US Magazine.
HOSPITAL STAFF THANK TAYLOR SWIFT
Staff at the hospital also joined in, thanking Swift for bringing “excitement, smiles, and laughter” to their halls.
The hospital wrote in the video caption, “Helping kids feel special, cared for and at their best is what we aim to do.
Taylor, you made that possible. Thank you and happy birthday from all your fans at Children’s Mercy!”
The singer took time to connect personally with many patients and their families.
