Gratitude

I live in a farm in central Pennsylvania. I was coming in from the barn and was out of breath. I got into the house , sat down and felt better. I took my pulse and it was 33. I was going to lie down and take a nap but my 13 year old granddaughter insisted that I call the doctor. After confirming my pulse rate with a cuff I called Dr Maleh’s office and left the information with the receptionist. Minutes later Dr Maleh called and said Jim , “ you got my attention with a pulse rate of 32.” He instructed me to go to the nearest hospital IMMEDIATELY. I went to Geisinger and had a pacemaker that afternoon. I am very grateful to Dr Maleh for his prompt response and advise in handling this matter. I was told at the hospital that I might not have survived a nap. They were very complimentary of DrMaleh’s prompt response.
