CODE RED
A young Christian surgeon finds Job helps him face death
By Andrew J. Drain
Christian Medical Fellowship. 101 pages. £5.00
ISBN 978-0-906747-40-7
Available from http://www.cmf.org.uk

This book is the autobiographical account of Andrew Drain’s battle with Leukaemia. Andrew was an aspiring cardiothoracic surgeon until he became ill in September 2007 and this is his account of the last three years of his life.

It tells the story of his illness from diagnosis to shortly before his death in the summer of 2010. His account is deeply moving and he writes in a very absorbing style. I found I was hooked from the moment I started and I pretty much read it in one sitting.
