Eminem recently paid a visit to a terminally ill fan, fulfilling his dying wish.
17-year-old Gage Garmo was sick with a rare form of bone cancer called Osteoarcoma and was given a week to live. His last wish was to meet Eminem and as a result friends and family started the #GetGageGarmoToMeetEminem campaign.
The Motor City community grabbed the attention of Slim's camp, resulting in the pair spending two hours together on Sunday evening. He kept the visit fairly low key to prevent proceedings turning into a media spectacle.
Metro Detroit, Gage Garmo got his dream! Thank you so much to everyone who helped this amazing man meet Eminem! #GetGageGarmoToMeetEminem
