Almost three years ago, I did a blog on Robert Wolgemuth’s insightful book Finish Line: Dispelling Fear, Finding Peace, and Preparing for the End of Your Life. Now Robert has lived out what he wrote about, having entered the presence of Jesus on January 10.

Kwa zaidi ya miaka minne mke wangu mpendwa Nanci alipambana na saratani, kulikuwa na taarifa nyingi nzuri na mbaya. Tulikabiliwa na mabadiliko makubwa ya hisia katika upasuaji wake uliofanyika mara tatu, awamu tatu za mionzi na awamu tatu za tibakemikali.

میری پیاری بیوی نینسی چار سال سے زائدعرصہ سے کینسر کے مرض میں مبتلا تھی، بہت سی اچھی رپوٹیں تھِیں اور بہت سی بُری۔ہم نے اُس کے تِین آپریشن، تِین مرتبہ شعاعوں کے مرحلے اور تِین مرتبہ کیمو تھراپی کے مرحلے میں ہم نے جذبات کے بڑے اُتار چڑھاؤ دیکھے۔

There is only one objective point of origin for any human being, only one point at which there was not a person a moment ago, and there is now. That point is conception—which science clearly shows is the moment when a new, utterly unique human being—a person—comes into existence.
