Eli is a teenage boy living with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.  Eli has always had the best attitude and has never complained about his condition.  He specifically said he feels like God allowed him to have DMD to help others.  It has been an exciting endeavor to Eli to partner with his family in creating Eli's Army Foundation. 

Eli truly lives NOT.IF.BUT.HOW.

Eli lives in Texas with his parents, his twin sister, and his older brother.  He is the comedian and nonstop talker in the family.  The "army kit" and official Eli's Army branded products have been designed with Eli's choices and preferences in mind.
