I am not in the least bit worried. Here’s why:
About 14 years ago My LDS Bishop (Preacher, ETC for the Church of Jesus Christ of Later Day Saints) had this same procedure done. He has since lived a normal life.
Its a very normal procedure.
To understand it you 1st have to understand what a pacer maker it as what it does.
A Pacemaker is a tiny defibrillator that is put in the chest once a person has a history of irregular heart beat or intermittent myocardial Infarction sets in. The Pacemakerzaps the hear to fix this instantly when it happens.
I knw this as I am a trained EMT. Got the training then decided not to join the paramedics and such. Didn’t feel right.
Anyways calm down everyone as literally 99.9% f people who have this done go on to live absolutely normal lives.
So what can we expect from here?
About a week to as long as 2 months away from the team for Boone. He has to have time to get used to it and heal from the surgery and such. He will be absolutely fine though!
