Hello people.
The average person subconsciously believes that he/she will
live forever, or at least be young and healthy forever. Imagine the shock, therefore, when a once
healthy person takes ill and receives this news from the doctor: ‘You have a
terminal illness.’ Such was the shock received by Greg Murtha, the author of
this week’s book, Out of the Blue.
Greg, a healthy, successful, forty-six year old man,
left his house one early morning in December 2011 to perform his usual morning
exercise. On returning home, he headed for the bathroom and was shocked to see
blood, a lot of it, coming out with his urine. A visit to the doctor later
confirmed his worst fear- he was ill; not just ill, but terminally ill. He had
cancer.
Out of the Blue was penned while Greg was in the hospital.
Written from a Christian perspective, Greg gives readers a glimpse into his thoughts
on cancer, caregivers to cancer patients, life and life after death.
Reading this book is sure to make the reader remember just how
finite life is, and how important it is for one to spend one’s life doing the
things one loves and being with the people that matter most. The book can be gotten on Amazon and other major bookstores.
P.S: Greg lost his battle with cancer on June 22, 2017.
