Dream Kid Draya

Draya was born with an enlarged heart and irregular heart rhythm that required her to endure multiple surgeries and medical procedures throughout her young life. This year alone, Draya has had numerous hospitalizations and three surgical procedures to replace her implantable cardioverter defibrillator from her chest with a tiny pacemaker that was placed directly inside her heart.  Due to her small size, she has experienced complications from these procedures but has overcome all these obstacles.  

Despite these challenges, she has discovered a passion that fills her heart with joy—dance! Her parents talk about how much she loves dance, and her sports dream is to meet and spend time with a professional dancer from one of the professional sports teams in the Atlanta, GA area. Making Draya’s Dream come true would not only give her a well-deserved break from the medical demands she faces, but also instill her with a renewed sense of hope and resilience!
