I hope so too, but I'm not expecting it. :(

Here's a story... the last heart attack, in January, was in the middle of a snow and ice storm. The hospital needed to get me to another hospital for the stent because they couldn't do it, but because of the ice, the ambulance couldn't get there.

So I wake up the next morning and I'm fiddling on my phone, modding lemmy, such as you do.

Nurse comes in and he goes "Were you asleep about an hour ago?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Your heart stopped for 8 seconds."

". . . Um... thank you? I... don't know what I'm supposed to do with that information."

So I have an implant now, it calls out through my phone if my heart stops again.
