Today, I found out my blood type is B. My parents are type A and type O. It's not genetically possible to be blood type B if your parents are A and O. This means I am either an adoptee, a mutant, or an illegitimate child. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my son's blood type was tested for college requirements. He's AB-; I'm B+; His mom/my ex is B+, a genetically impossible combo. He wasn't blood-typed at birth. This explains A LOT of my ex's behavior during our marriage/custody issues since then. There's a secret she wanted hidden. No one knows that I know. FML
Today, I was asked to donate blood for our daughter but it turns out I’m Type O while she is AB, so there is no chance she's my daughter, and my wife cheated on me. So I asked for our other two kids' types. My son is AB so he’s not mine. Our other daughter is O, so she might be the only one that's mine. FML
Today, I found out the truth about my and my siblings adoptions and why I have no contact with any extended family. Turns out our parents are half-siblings, who decided to adopt rather than risk any genetic anomalies. Their families didn’t approve of the relationship so they moved us far away. FML
Today, while doing a fun genetics game in Biology, I found out that I was adopted. Turns out the game wasn't so fun. FML
Today, I’ve suffered my whole life with a bunch of genetic conditions and I found out why at my dad's funeral. A bunch of relatives from America attended and one of them secretly told me my parents emigrated to England under a cloud of shame because they were brother and sister. I’m inbred. FML
Today, I found out that I was not adopted and in fact my parents are my biological parents. How did I find out? Over dinner. How long have I been believing I was adopted? 22 years. Why did I start believing I was adopted? My siblings thought it would be a funny joke. My mom played along. FML
Today, I found out that I was adopted. I'm 46 years old with 11 real siblings and no one bothered to tell me until I found the documents in my dead adoptive father's house. FML
Today, I found out my parents only got pregnant with me because they were desperate for a bone marrow match for my brother, who ended up dying before I was born, and who I had no idea existed. What’s even more messed up is that they gave me his name. FML
Today, out of my mom, dad, and my siblings, I was the only one selected for a “random” extra check at the airport. My parents are English and my siblings were adopted from France and Scotland, and are all white. My bio parents were Pakistani, and I'm nutbrown and I was the only “random” search. FML
Today, I found out I'm going to have a sister. Who’s the mom gonna be? It’s my cousin from my mom’s side. My dad’s excuse? "Well, she ain’t blood related." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

op ur ******* retarded, your parets blood type can be B ressesive therefore your mom is Ab and ur dad Ob you just got bb so itmakes u a b. ur not adopted mutant or anything else than a dumass who doesnt pay attention in biology class :)

lol gstone5 you say ops retarded when you spell parent Paret ^.^
dragead 2
um, ok, first off, you must not have payed attention during biology. A and B are both dominant, so it is impossible to have Ab blood and be and A blood type. It would make you AB type. duh. Also, O is recessive, so if there was a B with the O, the blood type would be B. Check your facts before posting next time

331, the world of genetics goes far beyond a Punnet square.
MyraHem 0
hey 331, you're an idiot. The phenotype A can either be expressed through genotypes AA or AO. The phenotype O can only be expressed through genotype OO. A and B both cause specific markers on blood cells. O does not. Therefore, AO only has A receptors and AA only has A receptors, making the blood type A. Same with B. The only way to get no receptors, blood type O, is to have the genotype OO. Now that that's explained... AA x OO yields: 100% chance of blood type A (AO, AO, AO, and AO) AO x OO yields: 50% chance of blood type O (OO, OO) 50% chance of blood type A (AO, AO) OP, you better hope your mother has a Bombay Phentoype, otherwise there's something your parents aren't telling you.

lol:) yeah even I knew tht!:)

Actually you can be their child; epigenetic's plays a huge role. With blood types you have the up front genes Ia, Ib and i leading to the old type A, type B. type AB, and type O but before these proteins are made your body makes cells with organelles to make those proteins, if those are both recessive then no matter what they are type O even, if their genetically coded for Ib,Ib or homozygous type B. so if your dad was heterozygous for type A (Ia,i) you mom could hold the genes for Ib,Ib or Ib,I either way leading to a 50/50 for type B blood or type A. This is known as the Bombay phenotype; you're not weird, you're not a Freak, and you're not illegitimate. :) I was in AP Bio; I got a five. Hopefully this helps.

No well acually it's possible that the ops dad maybe his mom and dad where O and B or the moms was A and B and you just go it from ur ansestors

Are u by chance a mutant turtle?
Tiny_AKA_Me 3
Obviously you because type O is a recessive gene which means you can't be type Ob

It is possible to have B ,your ancestors might have had it . It's nothing special , FYl :P !

It's not possible. His parent would be BO not OB. O is always just O, but O can come after A or B. Unless one of his parents is AB or BO, it's not posible. The possible genotypes for A type blood are AA and AO. O is just OO. Therefore, if one of your parents really has O blood, they're OO. If your other parent really is type A, then they're either AA or AO. That means it IS impossible to have type B blood. Ask your O parent whether they're really O or if they're BO.

lol. blood type BO positive... that would suck >_>

Im relly confused. I think it is possible. Who knows but you should just confront your 'rents.

Is it actually that hard to spell something right?
