If you bookmark the page you will always see the current gap rather than the number that was true on the day you saved it, and nobody has to edit anything for that to stay correct.

Using this month counter

Months are approximate by nature because they run from 28 to 31 days. This page counts complete calendar months: it stops at the same day of the month as today, or one month earlier if the target day comes first. The remainder in days is shown so you can see how close the next full month is.
