A small item in today's Washington Post Health section highlighted See Your Folks, a website created by four guys in less than 24 hours. Using life expectancy data from the World Health Organization, the site --
seeyourfolks.com -- tells you how many times you will see your "mum and dad" before they die.
Why did they create this site? Well, in their own words:
- We believe that increasing awareness of death can help us to make the most of our lives. The right kind of reminders can help us to focus on what matters, and perhaps make us better people.
Try it. You might be surprised at the results.
PS -- Mom will be happy to know she is already living 5 years beyond her life expectancy.
