Another day and another good deed done by Taylor Swift, and it all started when a little girl and her family posted a video online telling her story to the world. The truly touching video is entitled "Naomi's Bad Blood."

Naomi Oakes is just a typical girl — she goes to school, plays with her best friend and of course, listens to Taylor Swift's songs because Naomi is a certified "Swiftie." But her normal life took a turn for the worst when she was diagnosed with leukemia. After a much thorough examination, the biopsy revealed that Naomi has Acute Myelogenous Leukemia or AML.

She was so excited to receive her Christmas present, which was a ticket to Taylor Swift's concert on August 18, but sadly because of her current health condition, she won't be able to attend the concert because she has to stay in the hospital for her rigorous treatment procedures.

According to People, two days after the video was uploaded, it reached Taylor Swift and she gladly donated $50,000 to Naomi's GoFundMe page. She left a message to her adorable fan and it read: "To the beautiful and brave Naomi. I'm sorry you have to miss it, but there will always be more concerts. Let's focus on getting you feeling better. I'm sending the biggest hugs to you and your family."

Naomi and her family made a video in response to Taylor Swift's generosity. The video showed Naomi reading Swift's personal message to her. The message made the little "Swiftie" cry and E! Online reported that Naomi said, "I can barely breathe. I seriously think I'm going to pass out."

Watch the video here:

The Business Standard reported that to help Naomi in her fight agaisst cancer, she chose Taylor Swift's hit and controversial single "Bad Blood" as her "fight song" as she faces cancer head on.

With Taylor Swift's donation, her supportive family, and Naomi's great spirit, she's surely on her way to winning one of the greatest battles of her young life.
