Author
Janis Anderson Yelton enjoys writing mysteries, describing her books as “easy reads,” meaning she writes fast-moving stories without lengthy or unnecessary descriptions.

“If you’re reading a book that you say ’started off slow,’ or ’will be glad when finished reading,’ PUT THAT BOOK DOWN. Finishing a book that you’re not enjoying is about as helpful as eating everything on your plate to help someone in the world who is starving. Besides, there are so many new authors with good books just waiting to be read. Read a book’s back cover; if it’s a good book, it should grab onto you from the start. So many books, so little time.”

In 1997, Janis was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. But along with this devastating diagnosis, Janis received a “gift”—the gift of creativity. She suddenly became interested in sketching, painting, and taking a “driven” interest in writing books—all completely new endeavors.

Janis and her husband questioned her doctors as to the reason for her new interests, wondering if perhaps a portion of her brain was working harder to compensate. Doctors were unsure, but what they did know was that Janis was just one of many diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease to report this.

Researchers today surmise that 20% of Parkinson’s disease patients experience new interests (sometimes obsessively). They now understand it comes from the much-needed medications used to treat this disease’s devastating symptoms.

Janis had her first book published in 2003, but soon after, Parkinson’s (a progressive disease) advanced to the point that it affected her daily life and halted her ability to write.

Then, in September 2010, almost miraculously, a very small group (seventy-one worldwide) of late-stage Parkinson’s candidates were recruited to participate in a research study at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center in Ohio, and Janis was chosen.

The Duopa pump received FDA approval for this new medication delivery system. Wearing a pump and a tube surgically placed through the wall of her small intestine, Janis’ brain is being continually supplied with an artificial form of (dopamine) the chemical it lacks.

This delivery system has slowed her disease, reducing pain and rigidity.

Janis was raised in Kentucky, where she and her husband, Don, continue to reside. They have five grown children, nine grandchildren, and one great-grandson.
