Praise be to the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle.
You should check out the story of Jesse Romero getting caught in the Rodney King riots and being miraculously/inexplicably protected by the Lord.
You might already know all this but if not it may allay your concern re: both species, it is not necessary to receive both species because the entire body, blood, soul and divinity of Jesus is present in the smallest crumb of the Eucharist. It is not the case that the body is only in the bread and the blood is only in the wine. Only the priest must consume both species during the Mass. In fact, in many rites (eg, in the eastern church) only the priest consumes both and the people only receive the species of bread at every Mass.
