Dammit Dana - A Promise Kept: Laughs, Tears, and DFF Major Tait

A promise made to a dying best friend.

A horse entrusted to carry it forward.

A journey neither of them could have predicted.

When Marcie loses her best friend Dana after 26 years of friendship, she is left with more than grief—she is left with a request. And a horse.

DFF Major Tait.

What begins as a final promise between friends becomes something far greater than either of them could have imagined.

Determined to honor Dana’s wish, Marcie steps back into the unpredictable world of breeding and showing Arabian horses. Along the way, she faces setbacks, laughter, heartbreak, and quiet moments that make it feel as though Dana is still there—guiding her, step by step.

But this journey was never really about ribbons or titles.

It was about keeping a promise.

It was about honoring a friendship that death could not break.

And it was about the enduring love of a mother that still lingered in the barn aisle.

Because keeping a promise isn’t always easy.

Through long days, hard choices, and the powerful bond between horse and human, Marcie discovers something unexpected—grief doesn’t just break you… it can transform you.

It can become perseverance.
