Deans' stroke musings: Retire With a Smile: 10 Surprising Secrets to a Happy Retirement

Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

1. Don’t assume it’s all about the money

My Monte Carlo simulations look good.

2. But don’t ignore your finances

. The divorce took a huge hit on this but still left me enough to not worry.

3. Stay healthy

I'm as healthy as all get out, few my age can keep up with me.
4. Find your purpose
This is easy, solve stroke for all.

5. Don’t try to keep up with the Joneses

Never a problem.

6. Give back

What # 4 will do.

7. Stay social

Found out I was a situational extrovert. My original plan to retire to a cabin in the woods in northern Minnesota will not be occurring.

8. Communicate with your spouse

This is why I'm happily divorced, I communicated. Very good friends of mine wrote separate lists of what they wanted to do in retirement, neither list matched anything. They decided divorce was best. It definitely was best for them.
