"There was that day after the first operation, the operation that lasted almost six hours, when Dr. Putnam thought it wise to tell him what he had."-Death be not Proud, John Gunther
The author uses a cumulative sentence to show how Johnny, the author, and the doctor must have felt. When talking about the operation, he describes in furthur detail how long the ordeal lasted. Six hours, being a long time for an operation, was written to show the exhaustion felt by everyone involved.
"The day I was born, a day of sunshine and happiness, is a day of happy memories for everyone."-Meagan Poff
