Sophia who celebrated her birthday on Sunday said that she had two wishes: to receive a new heart and to meet Drake. Drake who played at the United Center in Chicago on Saturday, visited Sofia after seeing the video of her doing the Kiki Challenge at the hospital while hooked to her IV. After meeting Drake she said that she had received her best birthday present.

Watch Sophia doing the Kiki Challenge:

Sofia was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy, a heart muscle condition recently, which makes it difficult for her heart to pump blood to the body. In some situation, a heart transplant is advised and Sofia is currently on the waiting list. Three weeks ago Sofia underwent open heart surgery to connect a mechanical pump to support her heart and blood flow. The hospital performs this surgery four times a year that helps in heart transplantation. Her family members have started a GoFundMe page to lessen the financial burden on them. In just six weeks, the crowd-sourcing page has raised more than USD 43,900.
