So much for sleeping, Today marks the end of one more year and the start of a new. 47 years today I have been I have been taking up space on this rock. If I have done my math right that means my heart has beat a very rough estimate of 1,976,256,000 times minus a rough estimate of 38,400 beats for the time it was stopped for the 8 hours I was on the operating table leaving a rough estimate and a Grand Total of 1,976,217,600 yep that is........ {One Billion, Nine hundred seventy six million, two hundred seventeen thousand six hundred times} plus or minus a few.
That also means that if a heart pumps an average of 2,000 gallons of blood through 60,000 miles of blood vessels each day. 47 years x 365 x 60000 comes to a total of 1,029,300,000 miles which means my heart could have pumped 2,000 gallons of blood to the moon and back 2,154.2 times. Not sure how many more miles I will get out of her but lets hope its quite a few!
