I really liked what you did here. There were some very terrifying moments that I had to stop in order to cry. There was even one incident where I just had to leave the room I was reading it in to just gather myself. Some nice moments that were sweet especially how their friendship was shown. I felt disgusted going through this but finished feeling better somehow.

I was wondering when the other type of worm would show up and I was surprised. I loved that email from the little girl.
