Appendicitis, Death
Description
Kenneth tells how his brother Bradley died a year before his graduation from college. Bradley had frequent bowel troubles and their father stupidly suggested once that he used a machine in their home that operated an eccentric (that was "guaranteed to move you") to work the gas out of his belly (his brother had appendicitis). This would cost Kenneth's brother his life
