JumpinJack AJ Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Eminem Grants The Wish Of A Terminally Ill Fan Iyana Robertson Posted January 12, 2015 One of Eminem’s biggest fans, Gage Garmo, was recently diagnosed with Osteosarcoma, a rare bone cancer, and given an estimate of one week to live. The 18-year-old Michigan teen’s biggest wish has been to meet his favorite rapper – and Slim Shady made it happen. With the help of his family, friends and the hashtag #GetGageGarmoToMeetEminem, Garmo caught Em’s attention. Today (Jan. 12), Royce da 5’9 took to Instagram to reveal that the fan’s dream had come true. “Mission accomplished, he wrote. “God Bless this beautiful kid and thank you guys for all your hard work…” After losing a leg in a previous diagnosis, this is Garmo’s fifth time with the disease. http://www.vibe.com/article/jazmine-sullivan-mascara-v-sessions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JumpinJack AJ Posted January 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Wow... Terminally Ill Fan Passes Away One Day After Visit From Eminem Jan 13th, '15• by Aicha Forbes-Diaby TMZ has reported that Gage Garmo, a terminally ill fan who got the opportunity to meet Eminem this past Sunday (Jan. 11) passed away yesterday afternoon (Jan. 12). Garmo had been suffering from osteosarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer. In an attempt to raise the 17-year old’s spirits, Eminem arranged a secret visit to Garmo’s home, where the two hung out and chatted for an hour. A candle light vigil was held by friends and family members at Rochester High School, where Garmo was the football team’s manager. Through the power of social media, Garmo got his wish to see his idol. The young man’s friends and families used the hashtag #GetGageGarmoToMeetEminem to spread word and it caught Eminem’s eye. Slim Shady was reportedly very adamant about keeping his visit low-key, making sure it didn’t turn into a “media spectacle.” Our prayers go out to the family and friends of Gage Garmo. http://www.xxlmag.com/news/2015/01/terminally-ill-fan-passes-away-one-day-visit-eminem/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
