Click for my abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) story, which I overcame in 2010, thanks to an AAA stent graft (thanks doc!), and some self-help body movement changes. I'm still training. for Ironman, today.

2023 World 70.3 Ironman Championships, Lahti, Finland

Not doing too bad for an 80-year old guy, with an AAA and Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD). Thanks to my veterinary medical, pathology, and body movement training, I can teach you how you can lead an active, enjoyable, older age, too.


It's not magic, just certain skills and dedication.

why self help?

Well, It's up to us, for sure. Once doctors have done all they can.

At the end of the day, you have to take charge of your life. Especially when doctors and surgeons tell you they've done all they can. OR money's getting tight. OR you are facing a divorce, difficult kids, no health insurance. It then comes down to you, and how you choose to solve your problems. You can do it, I know. Been there, done all that stuff, now I'm in my 80s.

How to help ourselves

When faced with a life challenge, my approach is to take Albert Einstein's purported advice. To think long and hard before seeking solutions. That does not mean I procrastinate. I make sure I understand, (a) whether it's my problem, or someone else's, (b) what are the true ramifications and underlying causes of the problem, and (c) what are my resources, and how can I fix it, while inducing minimal damage.


adaptation

I then move to adapt to the new circumstances. If it's a  physical challenge, I get past grieving for my old abilities, assess my strengths and weaknesses, and build a new life. I built this website to provide encouragement, inspiration, and guidance, on living life to the full, in spite of it all.


Aging truly is the ultimate endurance sport. Please don't hesitate to send me questions via my weekly newsletter.

As a scientist I love solving problems.

Now go to the website menu, choose a topic, and see what I have to say. There you'll find a range of subjects, from vascular disease to environmental responsibility. If you do the ASQ test, discussed in my Aspergers Memoire, you may learn a lot about yourself. I sure did!
