it would have been worse/funnier if they were from a different race haha :)

I don't get it

this isnt a fml.... this is a case of mistaken identity.. luckily OP didnt operate on the wrong person... tht would be a fml

stupid face

OPs like " This is just like the time I got those STDs when I slept with 8 different guys. Wait who are you guys!?"

marinus is a *****.

woot, i just moderated this one like 5 minutes ago ^.^

lol at 19's insult -.-

I actually wish my back was as ripped as yours and insult you to make my self feel better. no ****

so how am I a *****?

for having a nice back.

marinus, no offense, but you must have like no life, your always one of the first ones to comment on every fml

Quiet little ones. Go back to your sand box.

I love how FML has so much eDrama. I bet this could make millions has soap opera.

29s a camwhore who has 3 friends. her parents an her iPhone.

Marinus is a man ****** Get it straight.

As a*. Fail typos!

*and I don't have an iPhone. Thanks for reminding me, you jerk! :[ Edit: What's a camwhore?

google it.

wow o.p.... THAT is a law suit waiting to happen. if this one is indeed real WHO in the F**K gave you ANY type of a wanna be PHD or paramedics degree to speak with families or be in that type of situation any way? don't get me wrong we ALL have those F**k off days, but if your in that high of a place, there's no excuse for this type of thing... protocol is in place for a reason.

37, what in the hell are you talking about? Did you think AT ALL, before you typed that comment?

I was almost 1st one time. just thought I'd mention that in case someone out there is proud of me.

stuuuuuuuuuid!!! fyl x100

#37 Lawsuit for what? that is the kind of frivolous bulls**t that doctors who save millions of lives a year shouldn't have to deal with. unless it is obvious negligence such as failure to follow important sanitation protocol or performing the wrong surgery on the wrong person. other than that they are under so much stress and pressure we shouldn't add to it.

ATTENTION PLEASE: random humor will no longer be tolerated on FML. So from now on, we will satisfy your entertainment needs with a sweet Comment Moderated note instead. thank you for wasting your time here. FML crew

Smooth.

Ahhhh, America's medical system! Cheers Obama!

you could catch it

How the hell do you carry on a conversation for 10 minutes with the wrong family? YDI for being so clueless, I wonder how the operation turned out.

#30 Justin Bieber!

well unless you told the family that the kid was gonna die, then dont worry OP. if you did, play it off like he really was gonna die. then when he lives, everyone will be shocked.

59 I thought exactly the same thing.. Made me lol :3

i can only assume #37 misunderstood the fml... i wud cut him sum slack although his comment was the most retarded peice of shit ive seen, considering the wat it was wrote i really think that he misunderstood. if he did understand i agree hes exremely retarded and needs to calm the *** down.

52, that really had nothing to do with being America's system or in any way Obama's fault. It was a mistake that could've happened to anyone.

Well actually It does because your President should have control over your health care system in order to keep people as stupid as OP from being allowed to 'take care' of sick/ injured people. Obviously OP is quite lacking in the brains/ common sense department so would you really want her/ him taking care of you or administering any kind of medical treatment to you my friend? I don't think so. A **** up once could destroy lives. Luckily OPs mishap was not life threatning... this time. Theres my rant over. P.s- as for Obama, you my good sir should pick up your slack when it comes to the medical services in your country!

76 and 37 have no idea what they are talking about. This happens. I've talked to the wrong family a few times (like OP, I'm a surgeon), though usually not for more than a few seconds before someone realizes the mistake. It happens. As for a lawsuit, in the US it's possible (though ridiculous) if there was a HIPAA violation. rebbee is clearly an imbecile if she thinks this episode makes this doctor, who has spent at least 9 years of his life dedicated to medical training, unfit to care for people. You, madam, are the problem in society.

actually assholes aparently you don't have any idea about the medical system, Its a little thing called HIPPA and HICFA... thanks

and yes it was a typo^^^

Lucious, just because you found out that a keyboard on a computer has letters and they can make words, doesn't mean that what you said, makes any type of sense. This is not a joke, I seriously read your comment and scratched my head and probably drooled a little bit. You dumb founded me. This is an extremely rare occurrence and I advise you not to attempt any type of conversation with any human being....ever.

can anyone spell LAW SUIT?

not really an fml

wat does this haf to do with nething? and also thats extremly offensive

His retarded what?

haha grammar fail XD

what's retarded is grammar Nazis like you fuckheads.

YOU'RE (a tard for failing to differenciate your and you're)

I think we are getting a little of topic from the fact that op doesn't know the difference between his patients

It depends. it would only really be bad if OP told them "you're son did great! we're expecting a full recovery!", only to remember that this was the family whose child didn't make it.

heyy
