Recently, Pat Sajak, the cherished host of “Wheel of Fortune,” shared a heartfelt story on “Good Morning America” about his health scare and the emergency surgery that followed. Sajak underwent surgery due to a blocked bowel, an experience so intense he believed it might be his last.

Sajak remembered how the severe pain struck him suddenly during a simple morning walk with his daughter. As the pain escalated rapidly, he found himself doubled over, needing prompt medical help. It was such a torturous experience that the usual medications couldn’t ease the pain.

Then, something unexpected happened. His doctors gave him a particular kind of medicine that worked wonders, instantly easing his distress. Suddenly, he felt as if he was in a different realm, surrounded by vibrant hues and a sense of peace.

Although he could hear his wife and daughter, they felt distant. In that surreal moment, he pondered, “Is this how death feels?”

Fortunately, Sajak’s fears were unwarranted. The sensation he experienced was simply the strong effect of the medicine. “I was just high,” he laughed. The surgery went well, and his medical team assured him that there wasn’t any serious underlying issue causing the blockage. Sajak could carry on with his life just like before.

Expressing his appreciation for being well again, Sajak mentioned feeling terrific for weeks post-surgery. He’s already back at the “Wheel of Fortune” studio, hosting shows smoothly.

Sajak, in jest, mentioned being slightly concerned that his co-host, Vanna White, might enjoy hosting too much and try to take his place. He jokingly remarked about her hosting skills, lightheartedly assuring everyone that he’s back to keeping the show lively.

As avid watchers of “Wheel of Fortune,” it’s comforting to know that Pat Sajak is healthy again, continuing to light up our screens and bringing happiness to countless families every day.
