William Shatner’s routine surgery turns into life or death drama

The 77-year-old Captain Kirk, William Shatner, has reportedly developed heart complications on the operating table following his procedure for a hip replacement on January 25th.
“The hip replacement surgery went fine,” the source said. “But William’s heart started beating erratically. For a few seconds, it looked like he might die on the table.”
He was quickly stabilized, but “he was pretty shook up when they told him about the heart complication,” the source said.
“Until now he’s had no real medical problems, but he’s overweight and out of shape, so hearing he had a heart problem scared the hell out of him.”
Now recovering at home, “William feels fine and he’s already walking,” the source said. “William said he’s going to drop some weight and start taking better care of himself.”

The story from National Enquirer is bogus.
William Shatner has responded to this at his official blog…
“I’m in absolute perfect health. I’ve never felt better in my life.
Somebody made up an absolutely foolish story.”
