From acting to racing – a not-so-common phenomenon in the world of NASCAR. However, earlier this year, Malcolm in the Middle star Frankie Muniz made his racing debut at the Daytona International Speedway. Having signed with a ‘minor league team’ Rette Jones Racing, Muniz has been helming the #30 Ford Mustang in the ARCA Menards Series.

Revealing that racing has always been one of his dreams, Muniz took to Twitter to share that he is taking up this new challenge only for his son, Mauz Muniz. Writing a heartwarming caption along with a video, Muniz posted on Twitter, “This one is for my son and showing him that you can always chase your dreams.”

However, now, with the heartbreaking news about his son, the 37-year-old actor turned racing driver needs nothing more than prayers and support from his fans.

With multiple visits to emergency rooms and no definite answers about the ailment, it is no surprise that the entire ordeal is nerve-wracking for the parents.
