Speaking to Belfast Live, the
mother said: "I am in shock I got my baby's dream to come true Adele was
so nice, she could not have been nicer.
"Adele was sat beside
her and she was talking to me and my other kid, she was so nice for wee
Rebecca. I cannot put it into words what it means.
Adele has made a
seriously-ill fan's dream come true after she paid a surprise visit to her at
home.
The singer, who was in
Belfast for a concert, said 'hello' to 12-year-old superfan Rebecca Gibney who
is blind, tube-fed, can't walk or talk, and has cerebral palsy and epilepsy.
The star sat beside Rebecca
in her bed and was "so nice", according to the child's mother Tracy
Gibney, from the Short Strand area of the city.
Ms Gibney had started a
campaign last year in an attempt to persuade Adele to send the girl a video
message, speak to her over the internet or even meet her.
She said Adele's manager
telephoned her when she was in her hairdresser and said the star wanted to meet
the youngster.
Tracey Gibney said…………………….
"It all started months
and months ago, I set up the page for Rebecca to meet Adele. I got the
manager's email and I emailed her four months ago and she said to leave it with
her.
"I did not hear
anything back and last night I sent another email.
"I was sitting in the
hairdresser today and the manager called and said Tracy it's Adele's manager I
am getting back to you because Adele has seen your Rebecca's pictures and she
was very emotional and she wants to come and meet your daughter.
She added: "I shouted
at the hairdresser, 'Get this off my head I need to go', I wanted to keep it
private.
"It is unbelievable
her dream has come true. Adele was just so nice."
