Wow Humaworm, that gives me goosebumps! yikes, that poor guy. I read alot of soldiers pick up parasites during wartime-- including round worm.
They had to feed alot of the soldiers powdered Kelp during World War II to control round worm infestations amongst them because their wasnt enough SeaWeed available.
A co-worker of mine recalls seeing her mother trying to pull a large tapeworm out of her father's mouth-- with the doctor on the phone directing. Her dad was always a sickly guy.
You were being groomed at a young age for your Calling in life in Parasitology and the HumaWorm dewormer company.
