Rosie O'Donnell suffered a heart attack last week and is now recovering at home. O'Donnell, 50, credited her miraculous survival to quick Internet research on her painful symptoms and a Bayer aspirin she had seen recommended in ads.
"Thank god/saved by a tv commercial/literally," she wrote Monday in her usual verse form on her blog.
"They call this type of heart attack/the Widow Maker/i am lucky to be here," she added.
In a statement on Monday, her rep Cindi Berger tells PEOPLE, "She is now home and resting comfortably. She is very, very lucky."
