THUMBNAIL (CONTEXT):
Ebenezer McBurney Byers (1880) was a Wealthy American Socialite, Athlete, and Industrialist. He won the 1906 U.S. Amateur in Golf. He earned Notoriety in the early 1930s when He Died from Multiple Radiation-induced Cancers after consuming Radithor, a popular Patent Medicine made from Radium which is HIGHLY RADIOACTIVE Dissolved in Water.
Byers was Very Wealthy,  Considered to be Handsome, and His Life was just going well until He Experienced Back Pain and Visited to His Doctor.  Now remember that Back in the Day when the Medical Field was FAR, FAR MORE PRIMITIVE there were 2 Significant Problems when it came to Medication. One was the Doctor’s simply Not Knowing Enough at the Time and Thus Prescribing Dangerous Medications and Medical Procedures. The Second was what They referred to back then as Snake Oil Salesmen who Traveled from Place to Place Selling “Miracle Tonics and Health Inducing Elixirs that Aside from being a COMPLETE FUCKING SCAM could be Toxic.

Byer’s Doctor Prescribed Radithor, which Worked so Well for Him Eliminating His Back Pain and Any Other Ailment BUT, little did Byers know the Radithor was EATING HIS FLESH from the Inside Over the Years. Then Towards the End of His Life Byers was Consuming  3 Bottles of Radithor a Day until His jaw just became so Necrotic that Surgeons had to Amputate Byer’s Lower Jaw along with a Significant Portion of His Upper Jaw. From that Point On more Body Parts of Byer’s Deteriorated and were Removed until He inevitably Ended Up Dying Plagued by Various Forms of Cancer that Riddled His Decrepit Body Due to Radithor.

Synopsis: A Forlorn Central Character Ekes Out a Sorrowful Existence in a Bleak and Barron Apocalyptic Wasteland Lamenting Mortality.
