Chicago . Una niña que aguarda un trasplante de corazón fue sorprendida por Drake en el hospital.
El rapero canadiense visitó el lunes a Sofía Sánchez en el Hospital de Niños Lurie durante una parada de su gira en Chicago. Publicó fotos en Instagram diciendo que hablaron de Justin Bieber y de baloncesto.
Drake visitó a Sánchez tras ver el vídeo de la niña de Downers Grove haciendo el baile viral inspirado por su canción «In My Feelings».
En el clip, Sánchez baila en un pasillo de hospital, dice que le encanta la música de Drake y le pregunta si podría ir a alegrarla en su cumpleaños.
La niña cumplió 11 años el sábado.
Sofia Sanchez, from Downers Grove, will be 11 on August 18 and has been waiting for a new heart at Lurie Children’s for the past several weeks. She has two wishes for her birthday, to get her new heart and to meet her idol, Drake (@champagnepapi), who is performing Friday and Saturday at the United Center. . . . In hopes of meeting him, she and her cousin performed the KiKi Dance down the hospital hallway tethered to her IV pump and taped a video message from her hospital bed asking him to visit her at Lurie Children’s. . . . Sofia was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy, a condition that often leads to heart failure and need for heart transplantation in order to survive. Three weeks ago, she underwent open heart surgery in order to connect a VAD (ventricular assist device), which is a mechanical pump that helps support the heart and blood flow in people with heart failure. Most often, it serves as a bridge to heart transplantation. Each year Lurie Children’s performs only four VADs. . . . In July, Lurie Children’s heart transplant team performed their 300th heart transplant and the next heart recipient will be #305. Lurie Children’s heart transplant team has performed 22 heart transplants so far this year. It has one of the largest pediatric heart transplant programs in the Midwest and was recently ranked the 3rd best Pediatric Cardiology & Heart Surgery hospital in the nation by U.S. News & World Report. In the last several years, Lurie Children’s has recruited some of the top pediatric heart transplant specialists in the country. #drake #drakechallenge #kikichallenge #inmyfeelings #all4your1
