Carrie Johnson praised NHS nurses and doctors as ‘the best people on earth’ in her Instagram post.

Carrie Johnson said in an Instagram post that she spent nearly a week in the hospital due to the flu and pneumonia, after having difficulty breathing properly due to a chest infection. The wife of former Prime Minister Boris Johnson said in a post on Saturday that she had still not recovered and “it may take a few more weeks before I feel like myself again”. In the post he praised NHS nurses and doctors as “the best people on earth” and said their “strong advice” was to protect people against flu. Mrs Johnson posted a photo on Instagram showing the end of her hospital bed, along with another photo of her son Wilf’s “favorite dinosaur toy ‘Greenie'” and her daughter Romy’s princess ring, which she said They gave him to take him to the hospital. She said: “I didn’t expect to spend the first week of 2025 in hospital. “After having a severe chest infection for about 18 days at home during Christmas, it got out of control and I was finding it difficult to breathe properly. “The hospital confirmed that I had flu and pneumonia. “I stayed there for about a week and still haven’t recovered. It may take a few more weeks for me to feel like myself again. “The reason for this post is that 1) NHS doctors and nurses are the best people on earth. I say it a lot but he took care of me and my family when we needed it most and I will never be grateful enough to him. “They are the best of us. I was at John Radcliffe and I can’t thank him enough. “When I was particularly depressed, a nurse even sat at my bedside and called me. Incredible kindness. “2) Obviously check with your doctor but my strong advice is to get a bloody flu vaccine. I really, really wish I had. “This year it completely slipped my mind. There are no guarantees, but if I had gotten it I probably wouldn’t have spent the last 3 weeks terribly, terribly ill.” He concluded his talk with an explanation about the dinosaurs and the princess’s ring, saying, “Health and family are everything”. As prime minister, Mr Johnson became seriously ill with Covid-19 in April 2020 and spent time in intensive care. The couple’s son was born later that month and was named Wilfred Laurie Nicholas Johnson, partly in tribute to the two doctors, Nick Hart and Nick Price, who helped save Mr Johnson’s life while he was in hospital. Was done.
