Comedian Jimmy Carr has shared a shocking revelation about his brush with death as a child due to a severe infection.The 51 year old comic, known for his controversial humour, was diagnosed with meningitis as a toddler, leaving him 'close to death' due to the immense toll it took on his body.

As per NHS guidelines, Meningitis is an infection of the protective membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord (meninges).This condition can affect anyone but is most prevalent in babies, young children, teenagers and young adults.

If not treated promptly, meningitis can lead to life-threatening sepsis and cause permanent damage to the brain or nerves. Jimmy, who recently dropped a hint that he has welcomed a second child, was just three years old when he was hospitalised and treated for the infection in Ireland.Thankfully, his body was resilient enough to recover, but even after 48 years, Jimmy vividly remembers the terrifying experience of being so close to death at such a tender age.

The star, who will be gracing our screens this weekend with two new shows – 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown on Friday at 9pm and game show Jimmy Carr's I Literally Just Told You airing straight after at 10pm, gained an incredible appreciation for life and good health after going through the ordeal.

“Women with ADHD Prefer Silence Over Disclosure. This Needs to Change.”

More than half of adults with ADHD prefer to keep their diagnosis to themselves, according to a recent Understood.org survey of 2,100 adults conducted online by The Harris Poll.
