It was 2010, and 19-year-old Sam Ballard was with friends, having drinks at a party. Someone found a garden slug and a gauntlet was thrown: "Eat it, I dare you."
The rugby player didn't back down — and things turned bad quickly.
As it turned out, the slug that Ballard consumed infected him with rat lungworm. The parasitic worms can generally be found in rodents, but can transfer to snails or slugs if they eat the feces of an infected rat.
Jeanette LeBlanc loved to go crabbing with friends and family when she visited Louisiana, but the 55-year-old from Texas had no idea that a fun-filled boat trip in September would be her last

Beyond contracting the disease, things continued to get worse for the Sydney native; the parasite reached Ballard's brain and sent him into a coma for 420 days, reports news.com.au.
Today, almost 10 years after first eating the slug, Ballard is a quadriplegic. He requires round-the-clock care, breathing and feeding tubes, and suffers from frequent seizures, according to the Daily Telegraph. His family struggles to shoulder the high cost of care. -
