Sharon1 explains how defibrillators work.
Transcript
They had this discussion over my bed when I was in the hospital about which – there are several different kinds of gadgets you can put in to make your heart – what they explained to me is that sometimes my heart may not be – both parts of it may not be working together. And this defibrillator is there to snap them back in place. So, I mean, I don’t know if that’s a very – a very eloquent description, but it’s the way I heard it, you know, that there’s two parts in my heart that don’t always work in sync, and having this defibrillator keeps my heart in shape, so to speak.
