Kerry Katona issues emotional health update on her seriously ill mum saying ‘please pray for us’

KERRY Katona has issued an emotional health update on her seriously ill mum.

The former Atomic Kitten star, 44, also asked her fans to "pray for her" as Sue remains in hospital.

Since being taken ill a few weeks ago, Kerry Katona has been keeping her fans updated with how her beloved mum is doing.

Today she revealed more about Sue's condition.

Writing in her New magazine column the star said: "I’ve had a very challenging week visiting my mum in hospital every day.

"She’s suffering from blood clots and other health issues and I’ve cancelled all of my work to focus on looking after her. It’s been an emotional week."

She went on: "I’d usually do something with the kids for Bonfire Night, but it really depends on how my mum is doing.

"I don’t want to make any plans as my routine is all so dependent on her."

Kerry signed off with: "Please send all your prayers to us."

Just a few days ago, Kerry took to her Instagram story where she shared a picture of Sue in her hospital bed.

She captioned the update: "Still cracking jokes."

Later, Kerry shared a short clip of Sue talking about her health.

Addressing her daughter's followers, she said: "After everything they've told me, I'm really, really poorly.

"Died nearly twice - broke my back."

Sue added: "I don't know how, but apparently it was years ago."

Kerry then interrupted: "It wasn't years ago but she has broken her back.

"She's on a long, long way to go which frustrates me because how long have I asked you to come to hospital."

Her mother replied: "I know, she's right", as Kerry concluded: "It's not very often I'm wrong, but I'm always right."

Sue had been brought to hospital by medics after clots were found in her lungs which left her "not in a good way" according to worried Kerry.

In an earlier Instagram update, Kerry shared: "Hi everyone, I'm just giving you an update on my mum. She wants to say thank you so much for all her well wishes."

The mum-of-five continued: "An update on my mum's health, she's still not very well, there is a clot attached to her heart."

Meanwhile, the TV personality also filmed Sue from her hospital bed as she revealed her badly bruised arms.

Two years earlier, Sue was left fighting for her life after a string of heart attacks - initially refusing to go to hospital.

She said in the past: "I had a tight chest and a pain in my left arm, so I was using the medication I usually take for angina, which is a spray I put under my tongue.

"Once I’ve taken that, the pain usually goes away.

"But this time I felt that something wasn’t right. I kept getting a weird pain in my throat and I couldn’t get my head around it.

"This had been going on for a few weeks, and it was happening at least twice a week.

"And then last Thursday, I experienced the pains again. But it was very intense."
