MIAMI, Fla. ā Thereās no doubt that Demi Espinosa is a Swiftie.
Bejeweled posters of Taylor Swift are all over Demi Espinosaās walls. But this isnāt a typical teenagerās bedroom, itās a hospital room.
Born with a rare heart condition, Demi has undergone several surgeries over the years, but recent complications led her to be transferred from Nicklaus Childrenās Hospital to Lucile Packard Childrenās Hospital at Stanford in Palo Alto, California.
Her recovery is treacherous. She is currently in the intensive care unit on life support and although she is awake, sheās been there for 52 days.
āItās the only place in world that can save her,ā says her father Danny Espinosa.
āThe face and the eyes and the emotion that she shows, the little that she can, when I play Taylor Swift songs,ā he says.
Just 15 minutes south of the hospital where Demi is in the ICU, Swift will be performing this weekend as part of her Eras tour.
Since circumstances wonāt allow her to attend, her father is hoping Demiās idol could make her wildest dreams come true with a visit to the hospital to lift her spirits and maybe get her dancing again.
āIt would mean the world. Even if itās just a FaceTime,ā says Danny. But a visit? āItās amazing what that would do!ā
