My best friend's 11 yr old daughter, Shealeigh Brewer has just been diagnosed with a very rare form of cancer called Ewing's sarcoma. It is stage 4, and in the bones. She is a huge Taylor Swift fan, and we are looking for tickets to the sold out April 19th show in Atlanta . If anyone has any contacts or has tickets they might sell, please let me know. Otherwise, please pray for Shealeigh and her family! We are very optimistic that God is gonna bring her thru this. But in the event he has other plans for her, we want her to experience a dream of hers! Thank you so much! Please visit www.caringbridge.org/Shealeighbrewer and sign her guest book with encouraging words.

Both of these sites appear to have tickets left, but if these don't work out I would suggest checking Craigslist and eBay up until the show. People are always listing tickets to big shows there. God bless.

I have a 10 year old myself and I couldn't imagine going through that. As a parent you just want to take all of the pain hurt away from them and put on ourselves, and essentially that's what Christ did on the cross, I will pray for her and will have my girls pray for her. There is nothing like the faith of a child and a prayer for a child from a child.

It always hurts the most when it is the kids. If Shealeigh lives in the Knoxville area please PM me and I will make sure that a non- profit called kidz team knows about her.
My thoughts and prayers are with her. I wish everyone associated with her all the best. I unfortunately know how this is first hand.
God Bless.

Prayers sent, my friend.
+1 for everybody.
I love this community man. You don't get this kind of love and concern from just any site.

Wanted to give a quick update...I spoke with Lauren @ 13 management, Taylor Swift's management agency. I have forwarded them Shealeigh's story, and info. They are going to review it and see if they can help. Thanks for the continued prayers. This family believes the God we serve is bigger than this diagnosis. BTW, Shealeigh lives in Riceville, just south of Athens. She is a cheerleader for youth football, and loves horses. A truly special little girl.

Sogozit...I'm on the Board for Make-A-Wish of middle Tennessee. I'd love to talk to you about getting Shealeigh into the MAW pipeline to have a wish granted. We probably don't have time before the April show to get all the paperwork processed, but Taylor is actually pretty active with the foundation. So if we can get her approved for a wish it could be a trip for her and her family to a T.Swift show and to meet her.
Please inbox me your email address, and God bless.
