Drake made a surprise visit to one of his young fans, Sofia Sanchez, who went viral by doing the Shiggy Dance Challenge in the hospital.
Sanchez, who turns 11 on August 18th, was shocked when Drake walked into her hospital room to bond with her. She is waiting for a heart transplant at the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. She had one wish for her birthday, to meet Drake and to get a new heart.
At least one of her wishes was fulfilled by Drake who took time out his busy schedule touring to meet with her. “I didn’t talk for a minute. I was like, is this real or fake?” Sanchez revealed in a video. “He’s like, ‘It’s me, Drake.’ I’m like ‘Oh my God!’”
The two bonded about Justin Bieber, Owls, and basketball before exchanging autographs. Drake performed to a sold-out crowd at the United Center for two nights last weekend, but still made it a priority to see this young fan whose favorite song is “God’s Plan.” Her “In My Feelings” dance-off from the hospital went viral which eventually got Drizzy’s attention.
If you’re not a fan of Drake, you have to respect this man for the good things he has been doing this year. Earlier this year, he gave away almost a million dollars when he was in Miami shooting the video for “God’s Plan.”
