God, Fizzy, don't you remember ANYTHING???? The full "2" mneumonic for meckel's is: 2% (of the population), 2 feet (from the ileocecal valve), 2 inches (in length), 2% are symptomatic, 2 types of common ectopic tissue (gastric and pancreatic), the most common age at clinical presentation is 2, and males are 2 times as likely to be affected.
I waited one month before I got engaged, when I was 23. Jump to now - fourteen years later - I just missed celebrating my 13 year anniversary last Monday. Clearly, I need to go back to Step 1 and look for some answers for next time:) (if there is one, of course).
