Donatee’s Mom Says Money Came Out of Nowhere

Taylor Swift‘s $100K donation has totally changed a cancer-stricken girl’s life … but, that young girl’s mom says it came completely out of nowhere — ’cause Taylor dropped the dough without ever reaching out to the fam.
We spoke with Katelynn Smoot, whose daughter Lilah was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of brain cancer earlier this year, about what the donation means to her and her family … and, Smoot says it’s given the family time to catch their collective breath.
Smoot says her husband was refreshing the GoFundMe one night and noticed the donation … leaving the couple totally awestruck — ’cause Taylor never reached out to inform them of the gift.
In fact, Swift still hasn’t reached out … it seems Taylor did something out of the goodness of her heart and simply moved on — and, Smoot ultimately decided to post about it to highlight how wonderful she is.
Smoot explains she and her husband were discussing their finances mere days before the donation … trying to figure out how long they could be out of work so they could focus on Lilah before they ran out of money — but, Swift’s donation has totally wiped that concern away.
On top of that, Smoot says Swifites have chipped in now too, alleviating the burden even more … and, she adds, it feels like their family is wrapped in a warm embrace by the fans. Katelynn — who is a big Swiftie herself — previously admitted she nearly named Lilah “Willow” after Taylor’s song of the same name.
Turns out “The Life of a Showgirl” is all about performing miracles and not asking for any recognition in return … though there’s one family who certainly won’t forget her generosity anytime soon.
