Man or woman?

Today, I got to work in the ER at the local hospital. A lady came in with high blood sugar. She was concerned because the same thing happened to her husband. I reassured her, telling her she'll be back with her husband in an hour or so. Her husband died four years ago from something similar. FML

I agree, your life sucks (14254) - you totally deserved it (4072)

Tell her it will be harder for you to send her home than to send her to Jesus.

See what she chooses.

OH my gosh!! That's horrible. It's okay, though. This is definitely not your fault. How could you have known?

what's wrong with people? they shouldn't be leaving out important details like "my LATE husband."

Back with husband? You speak good.

Well, OBVIOUSLY.
Haven't you seen that shitty 3OH!3 video? Only cavemen, high school wrestlers, and girls with cameras exist in Colorado. OP is obviously one of the cave-people.

Once again, you're awesome. I wanted to make a smartass comeback, but all I can do is giggle. XD

Haha whenever I hear Foot In Mouth Disease I instantly think of Gob... =)

#19 - On 11/06/2009 at 7:23am by jchansfan

I don't get how you didn't understand what she meant. Or at least consider it enough to avoid such a statement... :/

#18 - On 11/06/2009 at 7:21am by jchansfan

How could possibly have known that just from that little exchange? It was an honest mistake. Sheesh, get over yourself.

#20 - On 11/06/2009 at 9:40am by blastvortex

This isn't as bad as some of the other crap people have posted on here, like the woman telling someone she looked good for 40 when the girl was only 18 lol. I think you have a much better excuse than they do.

#22 - On 11/06/2009 at 11:01am by tiger411

OOPS!

#23 - On 11/06/2009 at 11:03am by flinkpamingo

Fuck it, give her a Candy Bar and send her on her way to see her husband!!!

#24 - On 11/06/2009 at 11:26am by Skull_300

The fact that she was concerned because the same thing happened to her husband kind of implies something happened to her husband because of high blood sugar.
She wouldn't have been concerned if her husband was sat at home in perfect health because she would think it's not a big problem because it didn't have any long term effect on her husband.

Sounds like your prognosis was right on, doc.

#26 - On 11/06/2009 at 8:39pm by FerrariCake

Oops shit happens

#27 - On 11/06/2009 at 10:31pm by Erindub

Rofl, did she start sobbing?

#28 - On 11/07/2009 at 3:29pm by Kuroftw

It seems like her life sucks a little bit more than hers after you made that comment lol but I know what you mean, I'd feel AWFUL after saying something like that

#29 - On 11/12/2009 at 3:07am by christinaxcarrie
