The Illegal Harvesting of Human Organs

The Illegal Harvesting of Human Organs

There have been many instances where organs have been taken from individuals under false pretenses.  Claims have been made in China regarding the harvesting of organs from some 11,000 political prisoners there.  It is estimated that there are only 37 people registered on donor lists in China yet they have the second highest rate of transplants in the world.

Although the Harvest Scar is fiction its events could seemingly be played out somewhere in the world.

Here is an excerpt from "The Harvest Scar".


The nurse gently rolled Molly out of the room and down the hallway to the waiting elevator. The surgical team was waiting for her in OR number 3 where she was wheeled inside. 

     A familiar pair of eyes behind a mask spoke with her. 

     Blake Bentley politely introduced the members of the surgical team that were going to be present during her procedure. Everyone seemed very pleasant and in a great mood.

     A mask was fitted over her face and she considered the blue eyes that now stared down into hers, as he spoke to her in a soothing voice. 

     “Molly, I want you to count with me if you would. Start at the number ten working your way back to zero. Let me know when you have finished counting, all right? Ten … nine … eight …”

     Her eyes fluttered lightly trying to keep up with the count, and then everything went completely dark and void of any light.

     Molly would wake up in the recovery room a few hours later, completely nauseated along with a shocking discovery of having more than just one set of stitches.
