Taylor Swift gave one of her young fans a night to remember on Saturday. 

Taylor Rayburn, who is suffering with a rare form of kidney cancer, was spotted in the audience by the singer's mother Andrea and given quite the VIP experience during Swift's Atlanta concert.

Andrea Swift, who is also suffering from cancer, plucked the six-year-old out of the crowd to sit with her during a song before arranging a backstage meet and greet with the songstress herself.
