Drake-meets-Kennedy-Brown-4

Drake is awesome and this story is all the receipts you need!

Meet Kennedy Brown, a 15-year-old terminally ill cancer patient. The Houston, Texas native has been battling brain cancer since she was diagnosed with the disease just two years ago, and when faced with fear that her time was running out, her classmates arranged for her to get the full high school experience by throwing her a surprise prom and crowning her prom queen. They also made sure the courageous young girl received an honorary diploma in a private graduation ceremony. But there was still one special wish Kennedy wanted to come true — meeting Drake.

Last week, a social media campaign was launched to get Drake’s attention with the hashtag #DrakeForKen.  One student wrote to Drake:

Hi. I am a student at Carnegie Vanguard High School in Houston, Texas. A friend of mine has a serious case of terminal brain cancer that she has been battling for a year and a half now.  Just recently, she has gotten much worse.  On Monday, we will be celebrating her life, and because she is only a freshman, we will be giving her the entire high school experience in one day (prom, graduation, etc.)  She is your biggest fan, and it would mean so much to her if you could come meet her or at least send something.  We aren’t sure how much time she has left; she has been in hospice and is immobilized.  Please help! It would mean the world to her and all of us. Thank you #Drakeforken

A day or so after the campaign was launched to get Drake’s attention, an update was given that he had gotten the message and was in the process of recording a message for her.

That was not the case.

On Saturday, Drake flew out to Houston to meet Kennedy and she was smiling from ear to ear!

The fact that this happened so quickly…how can you not love this guy?
