He is not sick anymore, so that's good, but he's on holidays.

And we didn't plan it properly to have

known as disrhythmia, it's when the heart's just not beating appropriately. And when I say

beating, I'm really referring to the conduction aspect of the heart, the electrical aspect. So

arithmias and disrhythmias are an electrical issue

that can affect the beating of the heart. So when we talk about brady arrhythmias, we're

talking about issues that lead to a slow beating of the heart. So generally speaking, your normal
