This is a song about a little boy named Ronan Thompson. He died because of neuroblastoma. His mother Maya Thompson writes a blog and Taylor Swift saw it. Taylor wrote the song, inspired by the blog posts and then performed it at the telethon stand up for cancer. All proceeds for this song go to the rockstar ronan foundation.

This tear-jerking song was inspired by a little boy, Ronan, who died in 2011 of neuroblastoma, which is the most common form of cancer in infancy. Taylor wrote the song after reading the blog of Ronan's mother, Maya Thompson, who is credited as a co-writer. Maya began writing in August 2010 when little Ronan was diagnosed and she continued penning her heartrending entries during the nine months that Ronan fought the illness before passing away in May 2011, just three days before he would have turned four. Maya worked through her grief by continuing the blog, writing heartbreaking letters to her late son, whilst also raising money and awareness for childhood cancer causes. Swift debuted the tune on September 7, 2012 during the Stand Up to Cancer telethon. It was made available on iTunes immediately afterwards, with all proceeds going to cancer-related charities.
