During a Joe Andruzzi Foundation benefit held on Monday (November 16), NFL superstar Nate Solder made a very heartbreaking announcement concerning the health of his adorable four-month-old son, Hudson.

The young boy was diagnosed with Wilms' tumor back in October, and already underwent chemotherapy treatments to fight the rare kidney cancer. He continues receiving care at the renowned Bostons Children Hospital.

Such sad news was confirmed at the Above & Beyond the Gratitude gala ealier this week. The 27-year-old offensive lineman fought his own battle with testicular cancer just last year. Solder's currently sitting the season out with a bicep injury - he was drafted by the New England Patriots back in 2011.

Support for the family continues going viral on Twitter:

@RealPeterson21: "As a soon to be father my heart hurts for @soldernate his son Hudson & his family. We will be praying at the Peterson home #PrayForHudson."

@Toucherandrich: "Hey Nate, stay strong man. Thinking about you and your family tonight."

@kevinburkhardt: "Everyone thinks these guys are all robots, until you read this. Prayers to @soldernate & family."

@JennyDell_: "Prayers to my little Hudson. Thankful for @TheJimmyFund & the strength of his parents @soldernate @lexisolder #love."

@ternisse13: "I hate the Patriots as much as anyone, but prayers sent to @soldernate and his family. Hope your son pulls through healthy."

@_ImaLoveMachine: "God... Sending all of the prayer and good vibes in the world to you and yours big guy. @soldernate."

@MattCiccio7: "Wow... Terrible. Prayers to the @soldernate family."

@_YohoKa_: "Prayers for @soldernate and his family. #ShoulderToShoulder #ForeverBuffs."

Solder later shared this social media update:

@soldernate: "Thank you everyone ! support the #JAF -God is better than we can imagine."

Adorable family snapshots of Solder with his "little man" and wife Lexi give great hope and positive energy.

Stay tuned as more details regarding Hudson's condition become available.
