Chicago (WGN) -- One young Drake fan’s birthday wish came true on Monday after a video she posted gained popularity.

Sophia Sanchez, a patient at Lurie Children’s Hospital, got a surprise visit from the artist after a video she posted of her doing the “Kiki Challenge” was shared on social media.

Meeting Drake was just one of Sophia’s birthday wishes. She’s waiting for a heart transplant, so she hopes to get a new heart soon.

Drake posted photos of the visit on his Instagram page on Monday with the caption, “Me and my love Sofia talking about Bieber and Owls and Basketball.”

Drake was in town over the weekend for his concert at the United Center. It just so happened that Sophia’s 11th birthday was on Saturday.
