You know me very well. You depend on me day and night. I never get to rest. Sometimes I feel you’re abusing me. Occasionally I cause you a great deal of grief. Hello, I am your heart. Although I weigh less than a pound, I am capable of prodigious amounts of work. While you’re relaxed, I pump about 6 quarts of blood every minute. But when you are exerting yourself to the maximum, my workload increases 3 to 6-fold.

Sometimes you mistake me for your
soul. You may blame poor food choices
on “heartburn,” and you attribute
emotional upset to a “broken heart.”

But most of the time you simply take me for
granted and don’t give me a second thought. I
guess that is to be expected since I work
without you consciously thinking of me.

However, I wish you would remember me
before ordering that double-decker bacon
cheeseburger with fries and chocolate malt. I
can tolerate a lot of abuse, but my limits are
finite.

I wish you understood me better. It’s a shame
that you do not have an owner’s manual for
me, your dearest organ. I’m jealous that you
pay more attention to your automobile’s
maintenance and your hairstyle than to my
wellbeing.

I hope you attend the next
Dining with Your Doc where you
will learn more about my
anatomy, function, and
problems. We will get along
better, and I will serve you
longer, if you put some of this
vital information to use.
