Heartbreaking details reveal the final moments of a 16-year-old girl who died during a dream trip to attend Taylor Swift's concert

A teenage girl who died in a horrific car crash while on a road trip to see singer Taylor Swift perform had been listening to the superstar's music when tragedy struck.

Mieka Pokarier, 16, was killed when the SUV she was traveling in with her mother and sister collided with a semi-trailer near Dubbo about 6pm on Thursday.

The family had driven to Melbourne from the Gold Coast for the 'trip of a lifetime' to see Swift perform on the Australian leg of her Eras tour.

Mieka's younger sister Freya Pokarier, 10, was seriously injured in the crash Dunedoo Road, near Ballimore, and was flown to Westmead Hospital.

The song she'd been listening to as part of her carefully curated playlist was recorded during sessions for Swift's 2019 album Lover, but wasn't released until March 2023 to coincide with the global launch of Mieka's eagerly anticipated tour.

Frozen on Mieka's iPad screen, which remained unscathed, the last song she had listened to was Swift's song All of the Girls You Loved Before from her Lover album

Her younger sister Freya was taken to Westmead Hospital in Sydney by paramedics

The mother of the two girls, Kim Litchfield, who was driving the SUV, suffered several injuries and was taken to Dubbo Hospital.

The driver of the semi-trailer suffered minor injuries and was also taken to Dubbo Hospital in a stable condition.

The sisters' godmother Karleigh Fox said Freya was fighting for life in a coma with a brain injury, a broken pelvis and a broken leg.

On Saturday evening, Ms Fox provided an update saying that both she and the girls' father, Peter Pokarier, had flown to Westmead Hospital to be with Freya.

She said Ms Litchfield had been released from hospital and “reunited with her baby”.

“We play her favorite Taylor Swift album '1989 Taylor's Version' on repeat in her room and tell her about the merchandise we see people buying online,” she posted online.

'It will take five people to roll her to check for any spots that could lead to bedsores as she is in the same position during her induced coma.'

Ms Fox said the family had difficulty “navigating even just learning the layout of the hospital, dealing with the complex trauma to our little one's organs and coming to terms with the profound loss of our 16-year-old '.

The sisters' godmother, Karliegh Fox, said she traveled to Westmead with the girls' mother and father and was by Freya's side

'We've had some in-depth conversations with the incredible doctors about the prognosis and we're still not out of the woods with the risks of swelling in the brain and infections still evident. This can still be life-threatening,” she wrote.

'We were amazed to hear that our darling had received eight blood transfusions plus other blood products from the ambulances on site.

'One unit is one donation, so if you have time this week please go and donate at your local blood bank – what a priceless gift you can give to humanity for free.

“All medical staff need a pay rise and we are beyond grateful to the Ronald McDonald House for providing hospital accommodation for the four of us.

“Every time you drive through Maccas, throw some change in the McHappy Day box because these guys just saved us so many logistical nightmares navigating supporting our girl in a city that isn't ours.

'We will keep our girl in an induced coma for a few more days to give her body the chance to remain still and hopefully recover as much as possible.'

Emergency services are expected to attend the scene of the accident near Dubbo on Thursday

Ms Fox added that the family were preparing for when Freya regains consciousness.

“We're going to see a lot of fear and sadness for her and potential burnout for mom, because that's the person who will want our girl the most,” she said.

'Mommy is still in a lot of pain, bruised and sluggish. Dad and big sister are amazing and we are all working together as a team to navigate this process.

“We are so lucky that we take such good care of the medical system in Australia.

We wished we had access to our 16 year old and hoped to be reunited in a few weeks to begin our celebration of life that we hadn't even begun to plan. Things you think you'll never have to do.'

Mieka was probably in the front passenger seat when the accident occurred.

On Saturday, Mieka and Freya's father, Peter Pokarier, shared his grief on Facebook.

“That's my baby that died,” he wrote.
