LINCOLN ­— When she reached her mid-forties, Khenmo Drolma was diagnosed with cancer and given five years to live. The diagnosis pushed her to dedicate herself completely to the religion that she had been dabbling in since she was 30, Buddhism.

“That experience gave me the incentive to make a full spiritual commitment to Buddhism,” Khenmo said.
