Catching Cancer (Paperback)

The Sci-Fi Adventures of Dr. Kenneth Messenger: The Parallel Universe Series Catching Cancer is an adventure of epic proportions, in which the entire human race is susceptible to an unexplained and unanticipated raging cancer pandemic. Catching Cancer follows the adventure filled activities of a medical doctor, who is also a scientist and a surgeon, facing a new world threat of contagion. Dr. Messenger has to use all of his diagnostic prowess to determine its cause and he has to push his scientific intellect to formulate a cure....if a cure is possible. His quest for a cancer cure leads him into the uncertain arena of experimental medicine....a precarious world of unknowns, with unknown outcomes. There is a complicated web of contagion, which involves bacteria, viruses and genetic transmission of cancer. Vectors of cancer transmission could be anything from an infected animal with a mutated genome to a contaminated shooting star. World health surveillance officers have identified multiple global epicenters of the cancer contagion and officials aggressively aid in the fight against the pandemic. Ken has no choice but to risk an exceptional experimental cure by increasing the cancer victims' oxidative capacity, attempting to kill the cancer and any mutated viruses, while protecting the patient's delicate normal cells. His work brings both personal tragedy and worldwide acclaim inside the walls of his clinic. But, the death of his youngest daughter brings a wave of despair crashing down upon him, leaving a broken doctor in its wake. Even so, his challenges are not over. The story line revolves around two local men and one of Ken's old lovers, all of whom have caught cancer. Dr. Messenger works desperately to save them and to save the world. This novel also handles adult dialogue and adult situations. The author, Dr. Howes, delivers a profound, heartfelt and shocking ending.... the likes of which, I promise, you have not experienced before.
