COMEDIAN Sarah Millican has revealed she was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery.
Sarah, 51, left fans worried after sharing a photo on Instagram of herself in a wheelchair.
While Sarah was in the foreground smiling, her husband and fellow comic Gary Delaney was seen behind as he pushed her through the hospital corridor.
Captioning the post, Sarah went on to reveal more details behind her hospital dash, telling her followers how she had undergone emergency surgery to remove her appendix.
The Live at the Apollo and Mock the Week star revealed how puzzled hospital staff were forced to ‘work out’ what was wrong with her before performing surgery to remove her ‘gnarly’ appendix.
She wrote: “An appreciation post for the absolute geniuses and angels who’ve just looked after me in A&E and on ward A6 @manchestershospitals at Wythenshawe hospital.
“From working out what was wrong to whipping out a particularly gnarly appendix (so retro!) to looking after me so expertly.
“Every single person I came into contact with was kind and smiling and helpful. No notes.”
She then went on to name as many people she could remember through the “fog of morphine and codeine” before adding: “You’re all glorious and I’m so grateful. I’ve never been so congratulated on doing a poo in my life.”
She continued: “First photo is @garydelaneycomedian taking me home. It looks like we’re escaping. We had permission. I promise. I love this photo.
“Second photo is of the Meet our team wall display of every single angel.
“Massive hugs also to my husband, sister and best friend who I could not do without.”
Sarah is often referred to as one of Britain’s biggest female comedians and has appeared on a number of TV shows including 8 Out of 10 Cats, Have I Got News for You and the Big Fat Quiz of the Year over the past fifteen years.
