Meet Mighty Mia's superstar brother.

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Yesterday I made a post about my niece Mia's battle with cancer. You can read about Mia here. I would like you to meet another strong and pure soul who is a major part in Mia's recovery.

This superstar is Mia's big brother, Eli. Mia has no bigger supporter than this guy. He would do anything at anytime just to make Mia smile. I cannot emphasize how much goodness this kid has in his heart. I know some adults that could use to take notes. He has missed out on some of his childhood with all their time spent in the hospital. He has even had to celebrate a birthday there.

He is 8 yrs old. He loves football, baseball, golf and, of course, pokemon. FB_IMG_1498746383524.jpg

With help from friend, family and everyone at his school, Eli has been able to collect a massive amount of pop tabs from soda cans to donate to the Ronald McDonald House. FB_IMG_1498748331620.jpg
When they reach the top of the clear tub it's 60,000 tabs.

He collected 120,000 of them last year.

Eli is an amazing person and amazing people deserve to be recognized.

Thank you for reading and for your support. Proceeds from this post will go to them.
