nascar tyler reddick son tumor.

Tyler Reddick is racing with his NASCAR championship hopes on the line while his infant son deals with serious health issues. Rookie Reddick, who was born in May, has a tumor affecting his heart. Mom Alexa Reddick shared that Rookie needs a kidney removed, but doctors expect his heart to recover. Tyler Reddick kept the situation private until Alexa revealed it before last week’s race. Reddick, who needs a win to stay in Cup Series contention, says racing takes a back seat to his son’s health. Denny Hamlin, co-owner of Reddick’s car, says the team supports Reddick and his family during this challenging time.
