In My Time Of Dying

On 12 June 2021 football fans around the world watched horrified as Danish international Christian Eriksen collapsed with cardiac arrest in his opening Euro 2020 match against Finland. For me it was an especially strange experience, for I watched the match from my hospital bed, having collapsed unconscious with heart problems in Russia just a few days earlier.

After a series of tests doctors discovered that a pacemaker I had previously had implanted had failed. I was taken to the Russian Cardiology Research and Production Complex, where I had two operations: the first an ablation to lower my speeding heart rate, and the second to remove and replace the faulty pacemaker.
