Bloodchild

I was lost with this story. i really had no idea what was going on aside from the fact that some guy had bugs in him and someone was pulling them out of him. I was unsure as so what the characters were supposed to be. This story reminded me of an episode of monsters inside of me when this kid went to a foreign land and came back to america and found out that he had bugs in him and when he pulled them out they were like these nasty slug things eating him slowly and growing inside of him getting bigger and bigger. so it was weird to me that they used this in a sci- fi book and then realizing "hey, this could really happen." its kind of a scary thing that sci- fi and real life are starting to mix together.
I was confused if these characters are some kind of bug or like aliens or something because they were talking about stinging each other and stuff like that to get rid of the pain. I also didnt get that the thing she was pulling out were supposed to be babies they just came off as slug like things to me.
