Liver

Today's theme was a complex one involving loss of hope and best efforts. I simplified it into the following story...

Despite the best efforts of the best doctors in the world, Jenny needed a new liver. I'd give her mine, but it wasn't enough of a match.

For a million dollars, Rico said he could get one that would be a perfect match.

I sold everything and gave the money to Rico.

It was barely enough.

Within hours, a medical cooler was being rushed to the hospital. In it was Jenny's new liver.

The hospital paged the transplant team, and they all rushed in.

Except for the lead surgeon. He'd already arrived in the morgue hours ago.

Without a liver.
