Dear Taylor Swift: An open letter from a cancer survivor

"I want to invite you to come and meet the [cancer-stricken] children that have inspired so many. I can just imagine how big their smiles would be if they were to meet you. Whether they live another month, another year, another decade, you’ll have been a glimpse of light during one of the darkest times of their lives. And for that, their families, as well as I, would be eternally grateful."

Miss Dominique Schell is a 19-year-old Swiss national who moved to Singapore from Switzerland in 2008. She is also a cancer survivor who is passionate about helping others with cancer beat the disease through positive thinking.

This young lady is hoping that US pop star Taylor Swift can be a part of this process during her Singapore tour, and has reached out to her via social media.

According to a Straits Times report, Dominique was diagnosed with sarcoma — a rare form of childhood cancer — in her right leg when she was just 10 years old.
