You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
Dear Ms Swift, @taylorswift I hope all is well with you. @taylorswift Were do I even begin, You are so incredible, gorgeous, talented, intelligence and courageous. Your music is so brave, fearless, bold, beautiful, brilliant, amazing, moving and powerful, thank you for sharing your journey with us, through your music. Almost 15 years ago, I was involved in a SUV accident with my parents, my sister Lily, my twin sister Ashley, and 2 of my dogs. Lily and I was airlifted to a near by hospital in South Carolina. There I was induced into a coma, I woke up 2 week later. Months after my accident, I was told that I did not have any hope from the doctors, they did not know if I will ever survived my injury, a few weeks after I woke up from the coma, I vainly remembered one of the doctors put me on my mother lap, and the nurses constantly moved me around. After a month of round the clock of medical treatment at the children’s I.C.U in South Carolina’s hospital I was transferred to New York, Mount Sinai Hospital along with my sister Lily in a medi-vac plane. After a few days in Mount Sinai hospital, doing all kind of tests, including a MIR, doctors, saw that my neck was not attached to my back. The doctor’s were furious to hear that the doctors in South Carolina put me on my mother lap, because one bad move, I could of died on the spot. A couple of weeks in Mount Sinai hospital, I had to under go a life threatening surgery to fuzed my neck and body back together. This was a 3 present chance of survival and I’m so blessed to be alive, I am a fighter. Being a quadriplegic with paralyzed volcol cords, life isn’t the easiest, Taylor, your music is what keeps me optimistic in life and never wanting to give up! My sister Lily and I became close after our accident. Through your music, our bond has been inseparable. Lily and I love ALL of your songs, we also love making our own lyric to your songs, one of the song that we changed is from the fearless album, “You Belong with me”, the lyric starts like this, “But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts, She’s cheer captain And we’re on a WHEELCHAIR “. Almost 2 years ago in September, a week before my 24 birthday I was admitted to the hospital for chest pains and breathing problems. As soon as I got to the hospital the doctors and the nurses were surrounding me, checking me, and giving me all kind of tests. “I felt like I was in a movie”. After doing a CAT SCAN, the doctors diagnosed me with a pulmonary embolism. I was admitted to the I. C. U because i was in a crucial stage. One week later, I was discharged from the hospital and I got to celebrate my 24 birthday at home with my twin sister Ashley, and my family. Two weeks later I started coughing up GREEN phlegm and I was also having BREATHING problems, I went back to the hospital, after doing a few X-rays and a CT scan, the doctors told me that i got pneumonia from being in the hospital 2 weeks earlier. Sadly, I was admitted to the hospital and all I wanted was to be alone in the room and listen to your music, after listening to your music alone, my sister lily decided to came into my room, and all I wanted to know do, was to changed another lyrics to your song, we decided to changed a lyric to “Clean”, “The water filled my lungs, I screamed so loud but no one heard a thing, Medicine Drips, now I could Finally Breath! “ I felt hopeful again, I’m so grateful you are in the music industry. When I heard that you came back from your “LONG BREAK” I was so ecstatic, I love your new album, its constantly on repeat in iTunes. After watching the Delicate music video, I was so moved and I loved every minute of the music video, I even got goosebumps. This is not the same situation, but I know how it feels to be invisible. In the beginning of my accident I was being Ignored for being different, I felt like I was a ghost in the room, just because I am a quadriplegic without a voice, doesn’t mean I shouldn’t be treated anymore different then anyone else, I have a soul and I’m still a human being. I was always a Swiftie from the beginning, but now, I love you even more. Not many celebrities out there would ever admit this to their fans. Taylor, Usually, Fame changes people but you have changed for the better, thank you for being a role model and my inspiration. Taylor, we saw you in a lot of pain during the 1st video, and in the 2nd video, we can see all of your pain released with joy. I Loved it! There is something really amazing about you.. Your unique ideas and thoughts that you bring to this world. Your smile, your laugh.. It’s you and you are valuable, worthy and cherished..I can’t believe the Reputation Stadium Tour already started. Being a quadriplegic, life is not easy, I wish I’m able to fly all around the world to see you in concert but unfortunately it’s not as easy as It seems. My Wildest Dream is to see you in Reputation Stadium Tour in Miami, I am a Sabbath observer and Sabbath comes out after 9pm. Can you add another date on a Sunday in Miami? I Hope you could help me make that happen. Even though I don’t have mobility from my neck down, or a voice to scream or yell, but with all that, I can still shake it off!! I thank my faith in G-d because there is a good reason for everything and I know that it will be all right because G-d is watching over me from above and we shouldn’t take anything for granted. @taylorswift Thank you for being YOU! I really hope you get to read this @taylorswift Thank you for all that you do and continue to do, Kelly Sagiv
