Daniel Stark is a teenager from Maryland who was diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. As a result, the Make-a-Wish Foundation offered to fulfill any one desire that the child had. Daniel, a fan of the Nickelodeon cartoon, "Rocket Power," wished to be a character on the show. His wish was granted as Daniel traveled to California, met the cast and crew of the show, and made a brief voiceover appearance (as himself) in an hour-long episode.
