Jenny White

Bio for Author Jenny White: Medical Thrillers

Jenny White is a retired Registered Nurse living in Southwestern Ontario. She spent over 30 years working in various settings including hospitals: ICU’s, trauma units, surgical floors, as well as Public Health and Long-Term Care homes (nursing homes).
She has vast experience in these settings working as staff, and finishing her career as a Director of Care, managing large nursing departments as well as a Director of Nursing services for a for profit organization overseeing 7 of their long-term care homes.
She holds a Bachelor of Science Degree and a Masters Degree in Healthcare Administration.
Having retired, she discovered that she had a brain tumor wrapped around her carotid artery in her brain, that was life threatening and required specialized surgery. After her extensive surgery, she was comatose for days, and when she awoke, she found herself tied to the bed as she had become a disoriented patient, attempting to remove all of the medical tools keeping her alive. Her memories were gone, she did not recognize her husband at the bedside, and she had to relearn how to walk and talk.
Over the next year, Jenny had to reinvent herself. Her old hobbies and interests were gone, and she felt vulnerable and lost. That was the turning point. She decided she was interested in writing her story.
As she learned the craft of writing by taking online courses during her rehabilitation, a spark was ignited and she began to write.
Her returning memories are slow, but are impacted by writing, slowly remerging from the past. Her experience is vast and she has many stories to tell. She now writes Medical Thrillers.
Her debut novel, “The Triggering Scent” (book 1 of a series), Jenny took her experience, and returning memories and created a character of a nurse, working in an ICU.
The story is: A nurse returning to work, the ICU, realizes that she now struggles with her memory and questions her skills. She realizes that the meth addicted neurosurgeon who ruined her life is now working in her facility, and she must stop him from hurting others even if it means risking her own license to do so.
The Triggering Scent is now published and available on over 40 platforms.

Book 2 is at the publishers and is named “Terror at the Manor” and takes the protagonist Abbey Roberts into another setting: the nursing home (called Long term care homes in Ontario). In this story, she weaves the challenges and horrors that occur within these homes based on true events fictionalized for storytelling.
Book 3 is currently being written and is titled: “The silent donation.” (working title). It will feature the currently unregulated industry of selling body parts within North America, and will feature Abbey Roberts learning of and assisting in the exposure of the industry.
As a nurse, Jenny wishes to bring to light issues facing healthcare today: burnout of staff, lack of recognition, long hours, exhaustion, unrealistic working conditions, short staffing, extensive regulations, violence in the workplace, and more. She has woven those issues throughout the books to highlight the profession as one in crisis and to inspire decision makers to acknowledge and discuss new ways to support those who give their all.

In addition, Jenny writes a children’s books series: The Molson and Jenny Adventure Series. This series of 12 books (English and Canadian French) explores the world through the eyes of Jenny (herself imagined at age 6) and her best friend Molson, the Maltese dog. (real)
To give back to her community she has partnered with service organizations such as Rotary International to assist with their main pillar of supporting literacy and education. As of this writing, daycares are being gifted sponsored boxes of books paid for by both Jenny White and Rotary.
These books are available on www.molsonjennyadventures.ca

Please note: There are several Jenny White authors on the internet. Jenny White is Canadian, and is one of the few female medical thriller writers. What makes Jenny unique is that she writes the story through the lens of a nurse, not a doctor, which is a completely unique and creative perspective.
She has also experience extreme trauma having been abandoned at birth, been abused by her adoptive mother and had domestic abuse with her first husband as she tried to escape from the narcissist. Adding those elements into the characters and plots creates not only tension, but also lived experiences.
As a survivor of brain surgery, she has another unique set of feelings, empathy and has had to overcome challenges that have been woven into the stories. As she continues to learn the craft, she is a new and upcoming best-selling author.
She has been called by friends, family and colleagues, “A force of Nature.”
