The family has set up an account in Elijah's grandmother's name for anyone who would like to contribute. The account at Alaska U.S.A. Credit Union is No. 1362339.

It is in Ellen Grable's name, and is for helping the family take care of Elijah.

Elijah's mother Serene says Qualis Health, which provides services for Medicaid, has assigned a new nurse case manager who is really trying to help.
