I remember the story of this young child who swam in a lake and died from a parasite going to his brain . Inmo its highly unusual and RFK claims “ the worn died”, is suspect . Anything foreign entering your brain is going to affect a person immediately and be severly pronounced. Maybe its his excuse for his bad behavior and the death of his wife. She was the one who found his documentation book/ diary/ journal of his female conquests throughout the years and their marriage together.

Worms don’t eat brain

I'm guessing it's Ascaris lumbricoides. I learned about it in Parasitology classes. And I've seen it in bear feces.

It will burrow into any part of the body. I remember hearing of some socialite that had a huge on crawl out her nose during a fancy event.

I've seen them 6-8 inches long.

It’s not that the worms don’t like a DemocRat’s brain. It’s just that there it too little sustenance there.

Kennedy revealed this medical issue in a deposition in his divorce some years ago. He is now talking about it so as to defuse the potential for use by his opponents. Or at least that is the strategy. My advice would have been to let it rest unless and until it was used against him and then play for sympathy in response.

“It just goes to show even worms don’t like Demonrat brains—it sopped after a few bites.”

Did it get into a lefty brain and “die” or did it commit suicide?

Nothing funny about a parasite infection.

My guess is that a lot of people in the U.S. have these but they get overlooked because we live in a "Modern Society" that has sanitation. It will become more of a problem as more of the 3rd world moves here and brings their illnesses with them.
