Pacemaker kids

Hi. My 8 year old son had a pacemaker fitted at Alderhey hospital 4 years ago. He's expressed an interest recently in meeting some other kids with pacemakers. I just wondered if there are any parents on this site who'd like to meet up or chat. We are living in the Merseyside area of the UK. Kind regards Vanessa.

If you are not already a member have you tried HeartLine Families or Patches Heart Group. They should be able to help you quickly find other parents of children of a similar age with pacemakers living in your area or under Alder Hey.

As for my pacemaker (almost 7 years old) I like to think of it in the terms of the old Timex commercial - takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
