LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) – A dream came true this weekend for a Lexington boy who’s been through so much.
On Saturday the Make-A-Wish Foundation gave 9-year-old Eli Marcum an RV.
More than two years ago, Eli had to undergo surgery for a brain tumor.
During his recovery he spent months re-learning how to walk and talk.
Meanwhile, Make-A-Wish was working hard to make Eli’s dream a reality.
“Why did you wish for a camper why did you think that was a good gift,” asked LEX 18 reporter Eleanor Buckley.
“Adventure, that’s basically what I am in the summer,” replied Eli.
Eli hopes to use the new RV to go hunting with his dad. He says their first trip will be to Florida.
