Health: Thanks for your concern

Thanks for your concern

By nothealthy - 29/03/2016 04:51 - United States - Minneapolis

Today, my sister called after she found out I was hospitalized with surgery complications. Worried about me? Wondering if I'm okay? Nope. Just mad that I texted her an update rather than calling. I didn't call because I had surgery on my throat and can't speak. FML

Today, my sister texted me, saying she was about to go into surgery. It's been a long time coming, and we've both been worried about what could happen. I texted "good luck" back. My phone autocorrected it to "goodbye" and I didn't even notice. FML

Today, I was recovering from an operation. After I felt better, I checked my phone. There were 35 missed calls and angry text messages from my boyfriend asking why I wasn't at his house to cook his dinner. FML

Today, my mom got angry that I wasn't responding to her texts. I couldn't because I was in the dentist's chair. She'd dropped me off, and after returning from errands, sent the text from the waiting room. FML

Today, I texted my sister to ask her if she was OK after finding out that one of her oldest friends had died. She didn’t know. FML

Today, I called my mom for the first time in a few weeks, just to chat because I miss her. When she picked up, the first thing she said was, "Why are you calling? What's wrong? Do you have swine flu??" When I told her that I didn't, and I just wanted to chat, she hung up. FML

Today, I collided heads at a soccer game and needed 13 stitches in my head. I texted all my contacts to let them know I was in the hospital. I got back one response that said "bitch got what you deserve" it was from my cousin. No one else ever texted me back. FML

Today, after having surgery, I called my family to tell them I was out, safe, and on my way home. The first thing they asked was if they could "borrow" some of my pain meds. FML

Today, my mom wrote me an email, asking how I was doing after an accident yesterday. I wrote back at length, telling her everything in detail. Two hours later, she calls me on the phone, asking how I am. She was simply too lazy to check her mail and expected me to tell her everything a second time. FML

Today, on my long-awaited vacation, I got a phone call from my sister. Her childhood friend died. She bawled on the phone, and my plans were ruined. My husband said it was selfish of her to do such a thing when she knew we were on vacation, so she ramped up the drama times ten. She and her friend used to bully me. FML

Today, I was talking to my new boss while on speakerphone. Then, my sister yelled for me, asking me to check whether she had a yeast infection or not. FML

You sister is so selfish

Your sister sounds like a selfish bitch. That is ridiculous. You should feel no shame about cutting her out of your life if you want to, or just limit contact.

You don't think cutting someone, especially family, out of your life for something as small as this isn't just a tad extreme? She was probably just worried and not thinking clearly. If not, siblings argue over stupid things all the time, it's normal. It doesn't mean she doesn't care or is a bad sister.

It seems small but really isn't. She wasn't concerned how her sister was, didn't care to ask what kind of surgery (or she would know why she didn't call), and decided to make the whole thing about herself when it was her sister who was sick. All red flags. People like this can make their families miserable. If this is part of a pattern, OP needs to know it's OK to tell her to buzz off.

I think I just lost brain cells trying to figure out OP's sisters' logic.

I never get why some idiots click the "it's your own fault" button on posts like this?? It's quite obviously not the posters fault. No logic...

Funny you mention logic, but you can't even use it yourself to deduce the obvious fact that they're doing it to be dicks.
