Welcome! My paced son is 20 months old and has been paced almost from birth. He is scheduled to have his generator and leads replaced in May.

Hi,
I just found this web site a couple of days ago myself, so I'm pretty excited about it! I also joined as a mom of a child w/an implanted device. My daughter, Morgan, is 15 yrs. old, & has had 4 different devices. She currently has an ICD, but the 1st three devices were pacemakers. She had the 1st one implanted eleven days after she was born. How old is your little one & how long has he/she had a PM?

You know you're wired when...

Your electric tooth brush interferes with your device.

I am just grateful to God that I lived long enough to have my ICD put in. So many people are not as lucky as us; even though we sometimes don't feel lucky.
