(Grafton, ND) -- A Grafton infant has found himself in the fight of his life, before he even turned one.

Stephanie Bommersbach, the Aunt of baby Dawson, set up a GoFundMe page this week for the little boy, who was diagnosed with RSV last month, at just one month old.

"Please keep Dawson in your prayers," said Bommersbach on the page in a long write up of the little boy's experiences since getting RSV on November 30th. "He has a long fight ahead of him. We are asking for help, my brother Madison and sister-in-law Jordyn will need to be at the hospital with him every step of the way."

Dawson was admitted November 30th with the respiratory illness, which is now being clumped together and considered part of the 'tripledemic' across the country. That being an influx of RSV, Flu and COVID cases.

As of Friday morning, the GoFundMe page has raised over $7800 to help Dawson's family with medical bills. You can find a link to the page by clicking here.
