Eminem isn't such a bad guy. The rapper recently met with one terminally ill fan whose wish was to spend some time with Slim before he passes away, which doctors say could be any day now. Gage Garmo is continuing to battle the rare bone cancer that he's been diagnosed with five times, Vibe notes.
After friends and classmates took to social media and started the #GetGageGarmoToMeetEminem hashtag, the rapper stopped by the hospital to meet his fan. Royce da 5'9 confirmed the meeting on Instagram, writing, "Mission accomplished. God Bless this beautiful kid and thank you guys for all your hard work."
Supporters thanked Em via Twitter.

Garmo reportedly lost a leg previously due to the disease.
Em also started the Marshall Mathers Foundation to help disadvantaged youths in Michigan, his home state.
The rapper released a compilation album, ShadyXV, in November. It featured some Eminem classics as well as tracks by Shady Record artists Yelawolf, 50 Cent and D12. The two-disc effort reached number three on the Billboard 200 following its release.
Mission accomplished ☑️ God Bless this beautiful kid and thank you guys for all your hard work...
