Sonny needs a pacemaker. What could possibly go wrong?

[WebberHardyLover]

I've had relatives in their 80s and 90s get pacemakers. In the scheme of surgeries, it's a simpler procedure and they all lived for many years with it. The hardest part of it was that when they aged and their skin became paper thin, it needed support to hold in the pacemaker, which seemed to want to work it's way through the skin, but all in all, they did very well. So I'm sure that Sonny will be fine and will live long enough to eventually need a newer and better model. His days dancing with a broomstick aren't yet over.

But - I think back to another show - Homeland. Didn't the lead character, the soldier who was turned, get commended to kill the VP by interfering with the wi-fi component of his pacemaker, making it go awry at an inopportune time?

If Sonny has a 'smart' pacemaker, I could imagine Sidwell tampering with its function. That could actually be an interesting story.

Or maybe Sidwell could demand Drew do the deed to clean up Port Charles in exchange for a favor that Drew asks of him.

This could be in the realm of GH plot lines ! Natalia bribes a doctor to pair Sonny's pacemaker with her phone so she can control Sonny ! Not far off Casey the alien plot
