In the home videos, Swift is seen chatting with her mom -- who is possibly holding the camera -- while being completely fascinated with her shoes. Additionally, she counts from one to 10, says \"ABC\" and she even utters a very important word: \"macaroni.\"

After first sharing news of her mom's cancer battle in 2015, Swift revealed to Variety in early 2020 that the 62-year-old had been diagnosed with a brain tumor. This happened while she was receiving chemo treatments from another bout with the disease having previously been in remission.
