'Supernatural' Star Mark Sheppard Was 'Brought Back From the Dead' 4 Times After 6 'Massive' Heart Attacks
On Saturday, December 2, Supernatural star Mark Sheppard revealed he recently had multiple heart attacks that almost cost him his life.
“You’re not going to believe this! Was on my way to an appointment yesterday when I collapsed in my kitchen. Six massive heart attacks later, and being brought back from dead 4 times I apparently had a 100% blockage in my LAD. The Widowmaker,” he began.
“If not for my wife, the @losangelesfiredepartment at Mullholland and the incredible staff @providencecalifornia St Joseph’s - I wouldn’t be writing this. My chances of survival were virtually nil. I feel great. Humbled once more. Home tomorrow!” he concluded alongside an image of him wearing a hospital gown in a bed.
In response to the shocking health scare, friends and fans of the actor took to the comments section to share their support amid this tough time for the celeb.
“Mark! You don't need to do the most and biggest every time! 6 heart attacks? 2 or 3 would have been impressive enough. You've impressed us, okay. Now stop with this heal up and get back on the road with us. Love you, pal,” one person wrote, while a second added, “Omg Mark I am so glad you’re recovering this is awful! Sending all my love to you and the family ❤️.”
A third person referenced his Supernatural character, who is known as the King of Hell in Lucifer's absence, saying, “A heart attack can’t kill him HE’S BLOODY CROWLEY.”
