Naomi Oakes has some bad blood and she's hoping to enlist Taylor Swift to help her beat it.
On June 25 the 11-year-old from the state of Arizona was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia, a condition in which an overproduction of immature white blood cells crowds out the production of normal blood cells.
Naomi now will need to spend up to the next nine months in hospital undergoing intense therapy, which means missing out on many things including an upcoming Swift concert that she was given tickets to for Christmas.

Using the name of her favourite singer’s latest song 'Bad Blood' as an anthem that describes her condition, Naomi’s heartbroken family have released an emotional campaign to recruit the singer to help the youngster fight the cancer.

Naomi's uncle, Brandon Adams, set up the GoFundMe page to help the family cover medical bills, which are expected to balloon to more than $30,000 over the coming months.
So far, more than $13,000 has already been donated.

This is so sad, like any money that family have should be going to make life as enjoyable as possible for the little girl yet they have to spend it on medical bills.
I hope she beats it and that Taylor notices her
