LOS Angeles Dodgers All-Star Freddie Freeman has shared a positive update on his son's health.
The 34-year-old MLB star's son revealed on Friday that his 3-year-old son Maximus had recently been hospitalized.
In a joint Instagram post from Freddie and his wife, Chelsea, they revealed, "Last Friday, Max rapidly declined and went into full body paralysis.
"We are very fortunate to have gotten him to the hospital in time so they could reinforce his lungs."
They added that Freddie had been in Houston when Max began to suffer, so he rushed back.

"Max still has a long road ahead of him to regain his strength and relearn how to walk," they explained.
"But we are so thankful to have our family back together.
