Taylor Swift reveals her mom has been diagnosed with cancer

[Teal Ambition 47,805]

She revealed it by posting a message on her Tumblr page:

Hey guys,

I’m writing to you with an update I wish I wasn’t giving you, but it’s important and I’m used to sharing important events in my life with you. Usually when things happen to me, I process them and then write music about how I feel, and you hear it much later. This is something my family and I thought you should know about now.

For Christmas this year, I asked my mom that one of her gifts to me be her going to the doctor to get screened for any health issues, just to ease some worries of mine. She agreed, and went in to get checked. There were no red flags and she felt perfectly fine, but she did it just to get me and my brother off her case about it.

The results came in, and I’m saddened to tell you that my mom has been diagnosed with cancer. I’d like to keep the details of her condition and treatment plans private, but she wanted you to know. 

She wanted you to know because your parents may be too busy juggling everything they’ve got going on to go to the doctor, and maybe you reminding them to go get checked for cancer could possibly lead to an early diagnosis and an easier battle… Or peace of mind in knowing that they’re healthy and there’s nothing to worry about. She wanted you to know why she may not be at as many shows this tour. She’s got an important battle to fight.

Thank you for caring about my family so much that she would want me to share this information with you. 
I hope and pray that you never get news like this.

Love you.
Taylor

That's terrible! I hope she'll be fine.

That is so sad! I wish her mother the best.

However, Taylor should be very proud of herself for putting her mom first! She just wanted to ensure that her mother is happy and healthy, and she might have just saved her mother's life because of it.

Just saw this! Mother Swift

I hope everything is going to be okay and that I will see her on tour so I can scream at her and give her a hug. I just can't if something happens to her

Get well Andrea

Sad news though, hope Mama Swift pulls through.

So sad  I wish it turns out well. I hope she gets through this. So nice of her to bring some attention and make her fans and other people check their health too, cause it can be easier to solve the problem if it's found out early.
