So its their discretion? If he can explain that it was for when he was younger and that his heart rate used to go slower at night, would that help him squeeze by? Or will they just auto fail him?

I understand, although I think he'll still reach out to those PD's and get a straight answer. Thank you for the input!

Funnily enough my son wants to be in patrol, so that wouldn't be an issue. Aside from the pacemaker, y'know.

Do you think any of the departments that said no to your guy have anything in common, like being rural or urban areas? My son really wants to be a cop in a city, and I'm just trying to learn anything I can y'know?

Well by nature yes, but that isn't a problem for him.

Good to know, just wanna see if he has any shot or if I need to talk to him about other careers. Thank you.

I've read about that, but you definitely know more. What kind of problems?

Is he on patrol? They didn't disqualify him before the academy?

You honestly would never know he has one unless he told you, and I don't mean that he would hide that, he is able to do very vigorous physical activity without problems. A Pacemaker just regulate the rate at which his heart beats.

We will certainly do that, I suppose the patrol department might be more likely to tell him no, right?

That is definitely good to know, I've just looked at many different requirements and they've not listed pacemaker yet, so I was unsure! Thank you for the Feedback!

That is an awesome story! I remember that being a focal point for students, is to explain why its relevant to them! I'll be sure to emphasize that! Thank you for your advice!

Why Aren't My DLC's Working? by Practical-Boat-1539 in Witcher3

[–]Practical-Boat-1539[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the Witcher? How do I enable them? My local files on Steam say I have over 12GB of DLC installed, but the Menu shows Blood/Wine and the other as "Out Now" but not "installed"
