This is great, regardless of whether the math is correct. I don’t share much on Facebook, but this, this I shared. It may seem sappy to some, but I find it to be a community service.

My situation: I’m 33 years old and I live in the same city as my parents do. My mom is 65 years old, my dad is 69 years old. I visit my parents about once a week.

According to this test, I can expect to see my parents another 700 times before they pass. That may look like a large number, for me it is sobering. My dad has heart problems (he had an angioplasty and a stent placed last year, some incidents after, and he had a pace maker installed this year). I’m not sure whether I get to see him another 700 times at the rate that I visit him now. I will certainly increase the rate of my visits.
