Jason Manford reveals heartache as 99-year-old nan is rushed to hospital and ‘won’t eat’
JASON Manford has revealed his heartache after his 99-year-old nan was rushed to hospital.
The comedian, 41, said he was worried after his beloved grandmother stopped eating.
Jason shared a sweet photo alongside his nan from her hospital bed and said he and his family were "staying strong".
"Unfortunately she's still in the hospital," he told his followers in an emotional update.
"Everyone is doing everything they can to get her home but she's just stopped eating (even when given a box of her favourite chocolates for Mother's Day!).
"Not sure why, she says she wants to come home, knows that eating will help this, but for whatever reason, maybe her dementia, she just won't eat."

"But we're staying strong as a family, lots of laughs and spent more time than was necessary rubbing hand cream into those 99-year-old hands...thanks again for all your kindness in messages."
Jason's celebrity pals were quick to share their support.
