The news was made known publicly this afternoon, Thursaday April 9th 2015 when Taylor tweeted the emotional letter to her nearly 56 million followers --- admiting "I’m saddened to tell you that my mom has been diagnosed with cancer. I’d like to keep the details of her condition and treatment plans private, but she wanted you to know."
She goes on to say her mom, Andrea Finlay, was diagnosed after Taylor begged her to get a checkup. Taylor added, "She wanted you to know because your parents may be too busy juggling everything they’ve got going on to go to the doctor, and maybe you reminding them to go get checked for cancer could possibly lead to an early diagnosis and an easier battle."
But one thing is that Taylor didn't specify the type of cancer she was diagnosed of what the doctors prescribed for her mom.
