About this ebook
At age twenty-two, Ummu Ahmadain was in her final year of university studying biology. Nothing was supposed to stand in the way of her earning a degree—until it did.
In a poignant retelling of her life story, Ummu chronicles her experiences starting with her initial diagnosis of renal disease through the associated obstacles as she struggled to stay on top of her deteriorating condition. While revealing how she witnessed the power of unconditional love and the sacrifices of a doting sister who selflessly gave up a kidney so Ummu could have a second chance at life, she testifies to the strength of the human spirit when tested to the edge of its limits, physically and emotionally, and of patience and acceptance as she learned to trust God’s mercy and love during her trials and tribulations.
Not Quite the End is the inspiring true story of a woman’s incredible journey as she battled end stage renal disease, found hope during the darkest moments, and relied on God to carry her through her challenges.
