Help us send some Swiftie spirit to our fellow Swiftie

Hey everyone, please help me help a fellow Swiftie who couldn't be at the concert but would love our support. This Swiftie lives with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and could not be at the concert as it is impossible for him to attend due to pain levels. His family friend reached out to the Dublin Eras Tour Facebook group to ask us to send some bracelets we had traded but I think we can do one better! I would like to come together to raise enough funds to purchase a resale autograph to send to him and a hoodie/tshirt depending on how much we can raise. Every little bit will make all the difference. I will make sure we get this to our Swiftie friend and that he feels supported by our amazing community!
A message about our Swiftie:
'My friend is an absolutely amazing woman. She is one of the strongest women I have met. Her son suffers from a condition called Duchenne Muscular dystrophy. Unfortunately he has reached a stage where he needs her to do almost all the things we take for granted. I have seen her make his dreams come true for years, he wanted to be a policeman, she made it come true for a day, monster truck rally...she made it happen...the list is endless. His latest dream was to see Taylor Swift in Dublin...this didn't work out as she couldn't get tickets...and even if she had been able, he's progressed to the point where even sitting in his wheelchair is causing too much pain. Please can anyone point me in the direction of where I can help him get some sort of souvenir...those bracelets all the fans give eachother, some confetti from the gig itself...she would be grateful for absolutely anything. As he is 19 now she did ask me to keep his name private but I honestly know that anything at all, no matter how small would be so hugely appreciated. This woman has really helped me through some of my darker moments and I would give my arm to be able to help her ease the guilt (that I don't believe she should have) over not making this one dream come true. Even suggestions of pages where I could share this post would be welcomed. Both my friend and her son are so deserving of any little smile as I know they've had very few reasons to this year.'
