Pacemaker

Mom's in the hospital awaiting her pacemaker which will be implanted tomorrow.  She's a little nervous about it since she'll be 89 in August.  I stopped by her room after work to bring her a few things from the house (we left pretty hurriedly Wednesday morning about 2:30am).  Anyway, I wanted to cheer her up. 

She said,"I just feel very anxious about having my life depend on a little device in my chest that runs on a battery." 

I said,"You shouldn't worry.  Lots of people have pacemakers." 

She said,"Like who?"

I answered,"Well, Michael Jackson for one."

Please tell me you didn't really say that!! Poor Mom, worried, but you're right, they're common nowadays. She looks to be a pretty strong lady and they wouldn't give her one if they didn't think she'd do well with it! My prayers to her.
