Phineas and Ferb saved traumatized 10-year-old Calissa Hanson and give her future goals.
Hanson has had a love for the tv show Phineas and Ferb from a young age. Growing up with two older stories she always had to watch what they wanted. This show was the first show that was completely hers. She got clothing, Cds and many more Phineas and Ferb items. Hanson and her family went on a family vacation to Disneyland one summer. While there they went on the Ferris wheel swing ride. Hanson was not a fan and was traumatized from the experience. Then a gleaming beacon of hope appeared. Phineas and Ferb were walking towards her. She said hi and was feeling much better. She then was allowed to get a Perri the Platipus sweatshirt that she still wears to this day.
