‘Excruciatingly worrying’: Kate Garraway gives update on husband
Kate Garraway has given an update on her husband Derek, who has been in ICU with Covid-19 since last week.
The heartbroken presenter sent an update to her team at Good Morning Britain:
“Derek remains in intensive care and is still very ill. I’m afraid it remains an excruciatingly worrying time. The NHS team who have been working on him have all been extraordinary and I know that it’s only their professionalism, dedication and bravery that has kept Derek with us so far.”
“I also know that they’re working just as hard on all the patients in their care. It’s hard to find the right words because thank you alone isn’t enough but I do thank them because I know Derek would if he could. I also want to say thank you so much to everyone who has sent messages of support.”
She added: “I’m sorry that I’ve not been able to respond to them but I hope you will understand I’m focusing on Derek and my family right now. However, in quieter moments, I am seeing them and they are so comforting and wonderful to read.
“I am very aware that I’m not the only one going through this torture, there are thousands everywhere worried about their loved ones and hundreds more every day too that are having to deal with the worst news that their loved ones have been taken by this horrific virus. I want to send a message of love and support to everyone going through this. You are not alone, we must all stand together and support each other. I’m praying to be able to talk with you with some positive news shortly. Lots of love, Kate.”
