Answers:

Y sister has 3 heart problems rolled in one and mental issues to. She is only eight and needs a pace maker in the next year. Pace makers are mechanical boxes fitted on your heart and keeps your heart from beating out of rythm, it also kick starts your heart if it stops so it can save your life. There anr't many pros but can you beat the fact that it keeps you alive. The cons are over activity could cause a problem, machines that effect them you can't go near, you wont be able to ride many rollercoasters etc, basically it is quality of life but hey it is better than not having a life. :) hope this helps.
