She's A Survivor

“Good Morning America” recently highlighted one of the many generous celebrities who support our wish kids. The world famous superstar, Beyoncé, made little Taylan Davis’ dreams come true in Las Vegas at a concert on her world tour earlier this year. The 12-year-old suffers from osteosarcoma; one of the deadliest types of bone cancer, and her wish was to dance with the Grammy award-winning singer.  

Not only did Taylan and her family get to experience the thrill of front row seats, but

Beyoncé surprised everyone when she came down into the stands to make Taylan’s dreams come true.

"I'm a survivor 
I'm gonna make it 
I will survive 
Keep on survivin'" 

Beyoncé gave Taylan her own private little concert, and even dedicated the Destiny Child’s song “Survivors” to the little girl’s fighting spirit. The lyrics served as a tribute to Taylan and her family’s battle against cancer. Watching this child’s wish come true is truly inspiring, even Beyoncé herself was wiping away tears after the special moment came to an end.

Here at, Make-A-Wish, we are so thankful for everyone involved in this wish granting process and their willingness to make Taylan’s wish come true. A special thank you to Beyoncé and her extremely kind heart. Our organization is committed to helping these children keep on survivin’!
