The Donors Gary Turcotte

Jimmy and I were in pre-med together. We had some wild times together. Early in our history we split women, and later became partners in a lucrative business. I was a gifted plastic surgeon. He was an anesthesiologist. Our educations left us buried in debt. Jimmy's answer was to marry a wealthy woman and hang her with the bills. His cheating ways got us both in trouble and soon the walls seemed to fall in on us. I shared in an unethical operation and we were caught and lost everything. The final possession we had was a large boat titled in Jimmy's father's name. We took what money we had and decided to cruise the ocean and visit the islands. But as usual a beautiful woman had us in a predicament. If we didn't escape her and her wicked ways, we would spend the rest of our lives in a foreign prison.

I knew when I was young I had a conscience, but once I had wealth it had vanished and never returned
