Okay, for starters, the rules: keep pictures to a minimum or non existant. if you have something really awful you want people to see, make a link, and add a warning.
Second, we all already know all about the awfulness of child molestation, murder, rape, etc, so lets try to keep it to bizarre and rare things, like diseases, weird bugs, stuff like that.
Okay, here are some interesting things i have stumbled across:
necrotizing fasciitis: AKA, Flesh Eating Bacteria. You actually rot while you are alive. i heard a terrible story this monring about a woman who gave birth to a baby, then somehow contracted this (or something similar) in all four limbs, which were amputated. AND, the hospital told her she has to sue them if she wants to know WHY.
Rotting Necrosis: Similar to the last one, but caused by the bite of a Brown Recluse. Cells start dying as a result of the bite, and "infection" spreads. doctors have yet to be able to stop it once it starts, and entire sections of flesh need to be removed to prevent the spread. Basically, once affected by the necrosis, the flesh has to be removed and then some, otherwise it will just continue. There, a REAL reason to fear spiders.
Human Botfly: I have an article on this on my site. Imagine a big fat bumble bee sized fly that lays eggs on other flies, who then accidentally drop a maggot on you that burrows into your skin and feeds off you until it is grown enough to dig back out.
