This is the story of Ian, who, in his 37 years, according to one of his medical colleagues, 'achieved more than many will achieve in a lifetime', and who, though assured of a 'brilliant future' in his chosen profession, was willing not only to risk that career, but if necessary to sacrifice it in order to be obedient to the Lord he loved. In these pages Ian speaks - mainly through is diaries - in a limited biographical setting.
Compiled by Eileen L. Gordon-Smith, Ian's mother, with deep gratitude for the prayers and encouragement of his father, and always sensitive to what would be approved by the Ian we knew so well.
