Likely with an itch due to all that particle replacement.
I think I've had quite a few. Bit like Doctor Who really.
Anyway, solely on a chemical level, there's a lot to be said for atoms switching between molecules and consequently forming new molecules, then breaking up existing molecules, etc etc.
It seems logical, well to me, that this is one level on which human bodies are like simmering soups of frenetic activity.
Hormones are extremely sensitive to chemical activity in our body. Right?
So after 7 years they create certain behaviours and accompanying 'hormonal itches'.
Now, to really answer the nub of your original question... if we can't really hold onto our protons for very long because we lose the atoms and molecules that they're attached to. And if our hormones are likewise affected by all this chemical activity, then yeah, after 7 years of this activity we do become a different person, we become someone else.
Mmmmm................. I hope this helps you Moy.
If not give me a call!
