Who has lived longest with a pacemaker

Whilst trawling the internet this morning, i found this https://www.pacemakerclub.com/message/8168/who-has-lived-the-longest-with-a-pacemaker

I found this story from 2012 - https://thedailynews.cc/articles/greenville-man-living-a-healthy-battery-powered-life/

Then I wondered if i was near the top of the list for the UK - I had my first pacemaker in the summer of 1976 when i was 7.  However, i found this - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-humber-20072515 - so a long way to go yet!

Technology is amazing, isn't it? You are for sure up there as one of the longest here, if not the longest. Glad you found us, welcome!

You know you're wired when...

You have a new body part.

My ICD/pacer is not a burden. I still play tennis and golf.
