Beschreibung
In the aftermath of October 7, 2023, a 74-year-old Canadian surgeon makes a life-altering decision: to leave home and volunteer in Israel during one of its darkest moments. Trading the familiarity of the operating room for the uncertainty of a war zone, he seeks to serve in any capacity-whether as a physician, ambulance volunteer with MDA, or labourer on an IDF base through Sar-El.
This powerful memoir chronicles his journey from Montreal to the front lines, offering a firsthand account of the Swords of Iron war, the realities of humanitarian aid, and the emotional toll of conflict. Along the way, he confronts questions of identity, Zionism, and moral responsibility, transforming from an "armchair supporter" into an active participant.
Blending personal reflection with vivid wartime experience, this is a story of courage, purpose, and conviction in the face of violence, uncertainty, and history in motion.
