A trans woman that retweeted this tweet raped a 6 month old btw.

One reckless gulp changed Sam Ballard’s life forever. It was just another fun night in a Sydney backyard in 2010. Nineteen-year-old rugby player Sam Ballard the cheeky, larrikin type who seemed unstoppable on the field was hanging with his mates, red wine flowing, everyone laughing and trying to act all grown-up. Then a slimy garden slug appeared. The dare flew out: “Eat it!” Sam, full of bravado, popped it in his mouth and swallowed. The group burst out laughing. Harmless fun, right?Days later, the nightmare hit. Excruciating pain ripped through his legs, his body went weak, and everything spiraled. Rushed to hospital, Sam finally confessed about the slug. Doctors uncovered the killer: a rat lungworm parasite hidden inside it. The tiny invader had crawled to his brain, triggering a savage infection called eosinophilic meningitis.Sam plunged into a coma that lasted over a year 420 brutal days. When he finally woke, his world had collapsed. He was quadriplegic, paralyzed from the neck down, trapped in a body that could barely move while his mind stayed painfully sharp. The athletic kid who once charged across rugby fields now needed tubes to eat and round-the-clock care just to survive.His loyal mates never walked away. They formed “Team Ballard,” visiting constantly, cracking jokes, even helping him sip drinks. One pal apologized for not stopping the dare that night and Sam broke down in tears, his big heart still beating strong inside the broken shell. For eight long years, he fought with quiet grit while his family poured everything into keeping him going. But the toll was too much. In 2018, at just 28, Sam passed surrounded by love at Hornsby Hospital. His last words to his mum? “I love you.”A silly dare. A tiny slug. One split-second choice that stole everything a gut-wrenching reminder that the smallest risks can destroy a life in ways you’ll never take back.
