Publisher's Synopsis
Book One of Time in a Bottle Trilogy deals with my brother-in-law, Ken Janzen, who got sick, and eventually died after a 10 months battle against lung cancer. Kenny launched "Ken Janzen's Health and Wellness Blog" in March 2007, still thinking, at that time, that he would beat the disease and maybe write a book about it. He lost the battle on January 18th, 2008 at 3:39 p.m. He was 37 years old. Kenny was a very talented young man: a web designer, singer, composer, and a graphics artist. He chose to die at home surrounded by family.Through Book One, Wally Janzen, Kenny's dad, points out the short comings of Canada's health care system. Our doctors only know the 3 current techniques of chemotherapy, radiation and surgery for cancer patients. Ken Janzen himself proposed a foundation, Voice for Choice, which championed alternative treatments. When he was alive, writing the Blog, Kenny felt like he was caught in the machinery of a huge system which was prone to misdiagnoses and long waiting times. Since he no longer has a voice, I have taken over bringing Kenny's story to the public. Kenny's brother-in-lawJohn Hartig
