Amy Schumer had the worst week of her life after she had to rush her son to the hospital.
Schumer’s 3-year old son Gene ended up hospitalized and diagnosed with RSV, while she was preparing for her “Saturday Night Live” hosting gig.
“Shout out to all the parents going though this right now,” Schumer wrote via Instagram Sunday, referencing the country’s recent RSV surge.
“I got to be with him the whole day at the hospital and the beautiful humans at ‘SNL’ couldn’t have been more supportive,” Schumer, 41, continued, noting that her and Chris Fischer’s son is “home and better.”
“I’d also really like to thank the doctors and staff that took such great care of my son,” Schumer concluded.
“The reason this show is so fun to do isn’t actually the performance or the show itself. It’s getting to spend time with the people there,” the “Trainwreck” star gushed. “The cast and the writers of course but the people who are behind the scenes making it run smooth are my favorite. The crew!”
Jerry Seinfeld’s wife commented on Schumer’s post, Proudest of you on Thursday than I have ever been. Treating every nurse and doctor with warmth and appreciation whilst you were melting from fear and stress. You made the obvious choice to stay with Gene over going to ‘SNL’ rehearsal that day, and you still managed to absolutely kill it last night.”
