An online fundraising page has been established for Brody Nicholson, the three-year-old son of two well-known harness racing participants.

Brody, the son of Tammi Hughes and Paul Nicholson, is currently in ICU at Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto. The youngster has suffered from respiratory complications, and to help his parents offset the financial strain a GoFundMe account has been established.

“Anyone that has met Brody knows what an amazing little guy he is and we are all praying that he will be up and entertaining everyone very soon. Tammi and Paul are lifelong members of the Standardbred community and as long as I have known Tammi she is the first person to jump in and help anyone in need, human or equine,” said Karen Tremblay, who created the account for Brody and his family.
