Meet Hudson

Hudson was diagnosed with leukemia right before his 2nd birthday, and received three blood transfusions and two platelet transfusions that very first night. Since then, Hudson (pictured, middle) has received over 10 blood transfusions. “Honestly, without donors there is a chance that Hudson wouldn’t be alive today because those transfusions are what saved his life,” explained Jessica McKearney, Hudson’s mom. Hear more of his story by watching the video below!
