When he was a little boy, a Dreams creator who goes by the handle ‘Danikaka’ made the journey from Syria to the U.S. with his family. He had been born with a spinal condition that was currently untreatable in his home country due to a lack of resources and confidence to pull off such a complicated procedure.
Fortunately, his aunt learned about a charity-funded hospital in America that was willing to treat patients from other countries. At just three years old, Danikaka and his mother flew halfway across the world in order to undergo the surgery he needed, before returning to Syria due to the fact their visas were only temporary. His family would eventually bring him back to the U.S. to monitor his health more closely, at which point he went through high school before completing a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science and starting a job as a web developer.
