Eliah was diagnosed with Severe Hemophilia A at birth. He has had a total of three strokes which left him with Brain Damage (Cerebral Palsy). We give him shots in a port, of clotting factor, every day to prevent new bleeding. He has been hospitalized more than ten times since his birth in May of 2007.
