Dance Research

Hi guys,

I had a pacemaker fitted back in 2009 and now I'm studying at the Northern School of Contemporary Dance. I'm in the 2nd year of my degree and I'm making a piece of choreography on the 'heart'. I was just wondering if any of you would be willing to talk to me about your own personal experience for my research?

Thank you!

Hello, let me know how I can help with your research.
I found out at 38 that I had a heart defect. A very rare one. My life for a number of years had been a struggle....3 kids, and doing all the mom stuff. My Dr. wouldn't listen to my symptoms and claimed it was "hormonal". Turns out it was anything but! My first words to my surgeon after my pacemaker was implanted were, "Is this what it feels like to be normal?"

You've posted the same request several times now. You're welcome to post it as many times as you like, but for the most part the same members are seeing it over and over so there's no need to repost. I didn't reply before because I'm not sure what my experience has to do with you choreographing a dance.
