Sheppard posted on Instagram giving friends and fans an update on his health. “You’re not going to believe this!†he wrote. “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.†Sheppard thanked his wife, the L.A. fire department, and hospital staff for their quick work. “My chances of survival were virtually nil,†he wrote. “I feel great. Humbled once more.
