When 16-Year-old Missed Jonas Brothers Concert for Chemo, They Surprise Her at the Hospital

When 16-Year-old Missed Jonas Brothers Concert for Chemo, They Surprise Her at the Hospital
This 16-year-old chemo patient could barely contain her excitement when she was surprised at the hospital by none other than her favorite boy band.

Social media users are burning up with love for the Jonas Brothers after they took some time out of their busy concert schedule to surprise a 16-year-old fan undergoing chemotherapy.

Lily Jordan was supposed to be seeing the boy band perform in Hershey, Pennsylvania this week. Instead, she found herself stuck at the Penn State Children's Hospital for cancer treatments.

Since she was heartbroken over missing the concert, she made an Instagram post to express her dismay and jokingly invite the Jo Bros to her hospital room.

"I was supposed to be at your Hershey concert tomorrow but instead I'm across the street doing chemo," wrote Lily. "If y'all wanted to pop in, I'll give you my room number."

To her surprise, the post was shared across social media until the Jonas Brothers' media feed was filled with requests for them to visit Lily.

Even Pennsylvania Rep. Scott Perry made a Facebook post for the youngster, saying: "Our good friend Lily is fighting for her life in Hershey tonight, and so badly wanted to see the Jonas Brothers tomorrow night at Hershey Park, but can't because of her urgent treatment. If there is anyway for them to visit her, we are lifting up her hopes and our prayers for help."

Wow. The power of social media you guys. YOU did this. YOU made my crappy chemo session into something incredibly special and unforgettable. Thank you thank you thank you @jonasbrothers for taking time out of your day to come pay me a visit. Literally made my life.

In response to the social media posts, the Jonas Brothers then stopped by Lily's hospital room to say hi before their show—and the youngster could barely contain her excitement.

Penn State later posted a video of the encounter to Facebook, and it has already been viewed thousands of times.

"Wow. The power of social media, you guys," Lily wrote on Instagram. "YOU did this. YOU made my crappy chemo session into something incredibly special and unforgettable. Literally made my life."
