It’s not a pretty picture but one I’ve dealt with all my life. As many of these “species” hide in some of the most comfortable spots waiting for just right moment to attack. They pull me in to their spot as it looks so comforting and warm as I let go of my protective cloth and then they’ve got me. In many a case I don’t even realize they have attached themselves to me until the blood is oozing. Sometimes they even escape before I notice the wound they have left. This species knows where I won’t look and just how close they can get to my heart or at least what feeds it. For leeches come in 2 feet as well and can even hide in plain site.
