LAS VEGAS - s4story -- Author and speaker, Dr. Adah F. Kennon has written a book that chronicles her journey to protect her husband, an honorably retired 89-year-old African American World War II (occupation) and Korean War Army veteran, who suffers from kidney disease and is on dialysis. He was denied life-saving prescription medication in his hour of need. The book is a survival manual and empowerment tool that exposes the grim reality of how growing numbers of Americans are being treated by the government, big pharma, the health care industry and pharmaceutical companies.

"When I started writing my book, it was just going to be a basic book on caregiving," Kennon said.  "As I got into it, I felt that there was more to be said to help people not have to go through what we went through. These entities hold our lives in their hands. They don't want this information to get out because it doesn't serve their interest. Their goal is to make money and not patient welfare."

Dr. Kennon is concerned about the failure of candidates currently running for political office to address what she sees as a basic issue. "Access to health insurance options and affordability are important. However, people need to understand how the prior authorization process can be misused to deny access regardless of these factors. It's all been so well hidden. Once my eyes were opened, I became passionate about sharing what I learned so that something could be done to change things for the better. I firmly believe that there is power in numbers," she explained.

"The legacy of a history of racism in this country is mistrust by people of color," Kennon said. "And, the betrayal of the sacrifice made by our veterans in the form of bait and switch has also led to distrust. People are suffering. They can't get their health care needs met and don't know what to do to have a decent quality of life, let alone survive. My book offers answers to these questions."
