Alan Jones provides update after illness left him in hospital
Alan Jones has given an update to his health after having to disappear from his show for the rest of the year.
The 81-year-old journalist was ordered to take a few weeks off due to an “illness” last month that left him in hospital.
He has now taken to Facebook to provide an update on his condition saying he has a bit of rehab ahead of him but is excited for the new year.
“I want to thank the thousands of people who have wished me well and offered support during my recent hospitalisation,” he wrote.
“It’s something of a cliche to say that if you are going to be sick or require the most intricate surgery, there’s no place in the world better than Australia.
“My doctors and nursing staff were unbelievable; as has been the support from people known and unknown to me.
“I have a bit of rehabilitation ahead of me, but if you fall off the horse, the first thing you must do is get back on again.
“I’m well and truly in the saddle and riding into a much improved future.
“In offering thanks to you all, may I also wish you a very happy Christmas and a healthy and rewarding 2023.”
Alan’s fans and loyal viewers were thankful for his speedy recovery and wished him well for the new year.
“So very happy to see you up and raring to go again, Alan. Best wishes!” one comment read.
“Alan, Good to hear your recovering,” another wrote.
“I’m pleased you are on the mend Alan. Have a wonderful Christmas. You are a national treasure and we must look after you,” someone else commented.
