Hudson’s Battle Against Brain Cancer

Hi, I am Natalie, Hudson’s aunt, and I have set up this GoFundMe to help Hudson’s family in their battle to beat brain cancer.

Hudson’s Mom and Dad, Nicole and Brent, moved to Lucan, ON in 2017 with a dream to raise their family there one day. After two years of marriage, Nicole and Brent welcomed their first child, a daughter Rylie in 2020. Two years later, Nicole and Brent underwent IVF treatment and got pregnant with their second child, Hudson. They welcomed baby Hudson on March 12th, 2023. Their perfect family was complete.

After a month of Hudson showing signs of being unwell, multiple doctor’s appointments and trips to Emerg, Hudson underwent significant testing including an MRI on Monday January 15th, 2024 that indicated tumours in his brain. Hudson was rushed to Vic’s Children’s hospital in London, ON where he underwent additional testing including his first brain surgery on Wednesday January 17, 2024 to remove as much of the tumours deemed safe.

Following his surgery and pathology results Hudson has been diagnosed with an aggressive type of paediatric brain cancer called medulloblastoma. It is malignant and very fast growing but the oncologist believes it is curable with aggressive treatment.

Hudson will undergo his second brain surgery on Friday February 2nd, 2024.

After surgery he will begin 3 rounds of very aggressive chemo followed by 3 months of stem cell therapy at Sick Kids in Toronto.

At this time, we believe this is curable and are going to put everything into fighting this battle with Hudson.

As Hudson embarks on his fight, Nicole and Brent (Hudson’s parents) will be taking a leave from work to fully focus on helping Hudson and supporting Rylie (Hudson’s sister) through this journey.

The goal of this GoFundMe is to allow Nicole and Brent’s focus to remain on Hudson and alleviate any financial stresses they accumulate throughout this fight.

We are incredibly grateful for your donations, kind words, love and support and thank you from the bottom of our hearts as we continue to pray and rally for our sweet boy.
