Why does Roderick want to wait two weeks before they do anything with Madeline? Because he doesn’t want doctors poking and prodding her because she had such an unusual illness Because the ground is too hard to bury her Because it’s the traditional wait time for mourning Because it’s so cold where they are, her body won’t begin decomposing anyway.

Answer:

Roderick wanted to wait two weeks before they do anything with Madeline:

Because he doesn’t want doctors poking and prodding

Step-by-step explanation:

Madeline was suffering from one of the rare illness. Her last wish which she made was that she wanted to be kept in the family tomb before getting buried. Roderick who was Madeline's brother decides to keep Madeline in their house so as to keep her body away from any scientific examination. Since her disease was very strange the doctor wanted to learn about it by examining her body.
