If your Hero has been poisoned, diseased or paralyzed, you can heal it to remove that status and restore the character to it's original numbers. Poison and disease in particular are usually accompanied by abilities that decrease numbers.

You can also heal a Hero that is being discarded, but that's not usually applicable when Eleazar enters battle, which is the only opportunity to use his ability.

Edge case here.  Suppose your Hero's being discarded by an ability, but you have You Will Remain up.

If opponent uses an evil "end the battle" ability this turn, you may begin a new battle.  If an opponent removes your last Hero from battle, you may remove this from the game to add your Hero to battle.

Can you banish YWR, bring Eleazar into battle, and heal the Hero being discarded?

No. Once you use YWR, the Hero has hit the discard pile. Healing a character being discarded has to happen BEFORE it hits the discard pile.
