The Worm Within
Having gone through this with Homer, I found this account thoroughly fascinating (and very amusing). Here's a short excerpt:
I dropped everything and held my breath. This could not be happening. This was not my life. I began panting, all alone in a locked cubicle in a half-decent restaurant with a dead tapeworm hanging out my ass.
What wonderful prose: the pathos, the suspense, the joy! Needles to say, this essay is right up my alley!

Oh my GOD, that was just absolutely disgusting! I did fine up until the death throes. Where in the h*** do you find these things?????????????? I am amazed.
That is hilarious.
Totally disgusting! I read every word and was completely fascinated.
I was unable to read this at home, so I printed the entire story as each link loaded and took it to work. It was my thought that I would spend some time in the ladies room and read it there. I kept forgetting to grab it. So, at lunch time I began reading it and close to the end of the story I began feeling queasy and had to put it aside until I finished eating. Definitely, not dinner time reading material.
I must agree with all of the above comments! Once I started reading, I couldn't stop...What a macabre family we've become!!!
