Health: Today, I begged my husband to take me to the ER cause my stomach...

By Jeri - 26/02/2010 12:55 - United States

Today, I begged my husband to take me to the ER cause my stomach hurt so bad I thought I was gonna die. He told me to go sit on the toilet and stop being a drama queen. I drove myself to the hospital just in time for my appendix to burst. I almost died because my husband was busy playing xbox. FML

Today, I went into labor and got my husband drive me to the hospital. Instead of staying by my side, he rushed back home for a World of Warcraft raid. His excuse? His friends were counting on him and they'd be pissed if he let them down. FML

Today, what started with me forcing a shit a little too hard ended up with me being rushed to the hospital with appendicitis. FML

Today, I rushed my wife to the ER because she was having abdominal pains. She was crying in the car and very faintly said, "If I die, our daughter goes to my sister and they get everything in my will." We later found out she was just having a bad gas problem. FML

A mother's love…

Today, I crawled into my mom's room to tell her my stomach was in massive pain. She ended up throwing me out of the room while spraying me with Lysol. My appendix was about to burst and I needed surgery. FML

Today, I was feeling really sick when I was with my boyfriend at the park. When we were walking, I got really dizzy and collapsed. My boyfriend didn't catch me. His mom took me to the hospital. While I was being poked with needles, he was at home playing COD. FML

Man up

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff - United States - Santa Barbara

Today, I woke up with horrible pain in my gut. It got worse and worse, and I started vomiting from the pain. My mom said it was the flu and that I needed to "man up." It turned out to be appendicitis, and I'm now typing this from my hospital bed. FML

Today, while grocery shopping, I was having such terrible abdominal pains I could hardly walk. As I'm 8 months pregnant, I told my husband we should head home. He thought a better idea was to run through the store and hide from me, hoping to induce labor by making me chase him. FML

Full of it

Today, I felt a very sharp pain, like my appendix was going to burst. After going to the doctor, I was rushed to the hospital to get tests done. The doctors later told me there's nothing wrong, I was just constipated. I went to the hospital for them to basically tell me I'm full of shit. FML

Today, my husband had heart attack symptoms on the way to his family event. We stopped, called an ambulance, and he was taken off to hospital. I called his family to update them. They still expected us to turn up. FML

Time for some serious discussions about the state of your marriage and his level of consideration, care, and respect for you.

that's why you don't marry highschool kids or people in college- way too immature.

OP, that definitely sucks. I hope you feel better soon. I'm very surprised at your will to drive yourself. It's really hard to focus on driving when you're in severe pain. I know. But do what you need to do to handle your man :] Good luck. As far as the people being immature and stupid--this is in NO way a ydi. Even if she was a whiny, bitchy wife, the husband still has no reason to stop playing xbox to take care of her. Because in that point of pain she wouldn't just be whining and complaining anymore. It would be much more serious. It does make the husband very self centered. And the people who think the xbox is more important--you're going to find yourselves very lonely in the long run. My boyfriend is a gamer, I don't mind it so much, I even watch most times but he is smart enough to know when to put the controller down and take care of me. That's why he still has a girlfriend. Plus...COD is campfest and it sucks therefore it really can't be more important than his wife's life...and yes she could've died. Probably not that second, but eventually. endrant.
