In June 2009, Dean died for nearly five minutes in a New York City ambulance. He told "US Weekly," "I went septic due to an illness that I had as a kid and it caught up with me. I was dead in the back of an ambulance, and the great doctors at Lenox Hill Hospital brought me back to life after around four-and-a-half minutes." Winters went into cardiac arrest in the ambulance and spent the next three weeks in the hospital's intensive care unit, followed by a month of recuperating at home. He then developed gangrene, which resulted in the amputation of two toes as well as half of a thumb. Dean underwent 10 operations because of the gangrene, including skin grafts, and he said that during the "30 Rock" season finale, he had casts on one foot and both arms and had to be propped up on a stool.
