BBC Morning Live star Dr Punam Krishan has urged people to "never take anything or anyone for granted" following a terrifying car crash on the way home from work. The GP, who makes regular appearances on the breakfast show alongside Welsh presenter Gethin Jones, will appear on the programme on Friday, March 31 to share her advice on how to cope during and after an accident.
Sharing the news, the official BBC Morning Live Twitter account wrote: "On her way home last week, Dr Punam had the terrifying experience of being in a car crash. She's doing well now, and will be here on Friday sharing some extremely important tips on how to cope during and after an accident."
Dr Punam has herself taken to Instagram to share a powerful and emotive account of what happened, urging people never to take anything for granted after her "life flashed before her eyes." Posting a picture of a number of floral bouquets from well-wishers, she told her 40,000 followers: "One minute you could be cruising along, living your best life and the next you could see it all flash before your eyes. This is what happened to me as I lost total control of everything as my car aquaplaned across the lanes on a busy motorway at 70mph causing me to crash straight into the central reservation a few days ago.
