‘Keep going’: Wish to ride horse granted for woman with cancer 
WDTN Dayton, Huber Heights, Ohio; by Allison Gen; 8/28/24 
A Miami Valley woman with terminal cancer got a little help to check a goal off her bucket list. She wanted to ride a horse again. Wednesday afternoon, her wish was granted at the Carriage Hill MetroPark Riding Center. Brenda Garramone has stage four bone cancer. ... “I’m out here for everybody else that’s got cancer,” Garramone said. A few weeks ago she was taken into the care of Grace Hospice. Garramone grew up around horses on a dairy farm in Oregon. That’s why after her terminal diagnosis, she wanted to have a chance to ride again. “We learned through her interactions with her nurse that her last wish was to spend time with a horse again,” Emily O’Flynn, Grace Hospice office manager and social work intern, said.
