Today, I texted my mom if she could pick me up from the hospital. She replied, "No fatty, walk home." I have a broken foot. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I fell down the stairs and landed heavily on my foot. Because I wasn't crying, my mom refused to take me to the hospital. It took me an hour of agony to convince her. It turned out to be broken in three different places. FML
Today, my lazy, obese mother took the last motor cart at the grocery store. My leg is in a cast. She told me to "use the shopping cart to help with the limp" as she rolled away. FML
Today, I'm on bed rest after a major surgery. I can walk to the bathroom but can barely raise my hands. At the hospital, my mom gave this dramatic speech of being there whenever I needed her. When I asked her to come make me breakfast, she didn’t show up til noon then complained I was in a bad mood. FML
Today, I slipped and fell down the stairs, landing hard on my knee. Through my screams of agony, my mom accused me of exaggerating the pain, and said I was just being an attention seeker, before finally taking me to hospital. I was told my leg was broken. She refused to apologize. FML
Today, I fell down a flight of stairs at college. I was taken to hospital with a fractured ankle and had to call my parents to drive me home. They constantly made passive-aggressive remarks on the way home, because I'd "totally ruined" their plans to eat out at a fancy restaurant tonight. FML
Today, my dad picked me up from school, something he'll be doing while my broken leg heals. He thought it'd be hilarious to arrive early and ask the staff where his "crippled" son was, loudly saying I'd broken my leg in a "masturbation-related accident". FML
Today, I came home from a knee surgery. I asked my mother to get me a glass of water. She replied, "You can get it, you're not crippled. Oh wait, yeah you are!" and laughed hysterically. FML
Today, I was released from hospital after being in a car accident. I used the phone book to call people I know to get a ride home, as my wallet and cellphone were still in the wrecked car. I had called my mom to come get me, but her response was "I don't feel like it." I live with her. FML
Today, I'm lying in a hospital bed with two broken leg bones, a reattached tendon, and four screws holding my leg together. Why? Because I wanted chocolate milk and some asshat didn't see me walking across the road. FML
Today, I was walking to my mailbox when I fell down and couldn't get up. My neighbor walked by with his dog, took one look at me struggling, said, "What is wrong with kids these days, drunk at 9 a.m.?" and continued on. I couldn't get up because I'm still healing from a stress fracture in my hip. FML

Well it sounds like you can stay at the hospital. Why not see if you can get some other work done. Get a job there and eventually you can afford a car of your own. Maybe you can lose some weight while you work off your tab. Then when you eventually get home you will be healed and a new person altogether. Will be the best bad thing that ever happened to you. Take those lemons and make lemonade.

Australia has universal healthcare he won't have a tab with the hospital

If you're so fat that your ankles can't support your weight, it's probably time to drop a few pounds. Also, has no one ever heard of a cab before?

Well, we don't know what OP eventually did. Given the situation, my first choice would have been to call my parent before spending money on a cab. If for some reason, the parents couldn't make it, then I'd consider a cab.

He could be big by genetics you know, sorry your mom said that. That's horrible. Don't let that comment get to you, be who you wanna be. As for the broken foot, that's crap that she won't pick you up. She can't expect you to walk home on one.

Broken foot or not. Fatties need to exercise. Props to your mother.

Try to exercise let alone WALK with a broken foot and see if you can do it while in pain, 'tard.

1. Walking can be desribed as exercise. It doesn't have to be streneous. 2. I have broke bones in my foot and dislocated my knee, I used crutches and didn't have no parents with a car to drive me around. 3. It is called crutches. 4. How are you calling me a 'tard? You just got f*cking owned. Fat c*unts like you always have an excuse
THE_A_TEEN 28
1. It depends. 2. That's you, not OP. 3. Take into consideration how far his house is and the pain he has to endure AND how much damage the bone can get from all the bumps and movements it has to endure. 4. I never said ANYTHING about my personal health and weight. How about you at this point? Ass.

So ask for crutches.

Guess it and your mother couldn't take your weight problem any longer ^_

The comments are exactly why I find myself reading FML less and less... "So ask for crutches?" Yeah. We don't know the distance to his house, and walking too far on a broken foot can exacerbate the problem. But everyone is so in a hurry to bash someone who might not even actually be that overweight, or troll, that their comments reek of stupidity.
