Today, as I was walking home, I saw an ambulance pull into my driveway with its sirens blaring. Thinking it could be for my sick father, I started frantically sprinting. I managed to trip on my pant-leg, twisting my ankle in the process. They were just turning around in my driveway. FML

Today, I was walking on the sidewalk near my house when a car pulled out of a parking spot in front of a speeding ambulance. The ambulance swerved up onto the grass. Yes, I broke my arm after being hit by an ambulance. FML

Today, I was so happy to be leaving the hospital after breaking my arm the night before. Just as I walked out of the doors, a huge ambulance team was running in at the same time, and knocked me down full force. I now have a broken ankle. FML

Today, my dorm's fire alarm went off. In the rush to escape, I slipped and fell off my bunk bed, breaking my ankle in two places. Crying, I told my roommates I needed help to walk. They shrugged and left after mentioning that I would slow them down. FML

Today, I was home alone in my apartment. I tripped over my dresser and fell and sprained my ankle. As I was laying there in agonizing pain, my downstairs neighbor shouted at me to shut up. FML

Today, I slipped walking down the stairs. My mom thought I sprained my right ankle. In her haste to get me to the doctor, she grabbed me and accidentally tripped me. I broke my left ankle. The right one was fine. FML

Funny how?

Today, a car was waiting for me to cross the street so I thought it would be funny to slowly limp across the street. When I got to the end, I jumped as high as I could to show I was faking. Turns out I tripped and hit my head hard on the sidewalk. That car took me to the hospital. FML

Today, after slipping on my stairs and spraining my ankle, I got a brace and crutches at urgent care. When I went to get into my car, my crutch slipped on some paper and I fell. I crawled back into urgent care, only to learn that my sprained ankle is now broken in 2 places. FML

Hurting over here

Today, I fell down the stairs and broke my leg. My dad helped me to the car so he could drive me to the hospital, but when he saw our neighbor, he went over and had a 15 minute screaming match with him over how his dog keeps shitting on our lawn, all while I sat in the car in agony. FML

Today, I tripped and fell on the sidewalk. As I did, a car that was passing by stopped, made a U-turn, and then came back so the people inside could laugh at me. When they were done taunting me, they made another U-turn and continued back in their original direction. FML

Today, I was out jogging. As I took a rest to have a drink of water, a car pulled onto the sidewalk and bumped into me. Not just any car; my dad's car. He then drove away. FML

I'm sorry op, that must have been alarming. I care for an ill family member, seeing an ambulance at my house would terrify me. I hope they at least took a look at your leg. :)

Good on you for caring about your father. You're a good son /daughter.

If the sirens were blaring, they probably didn't have time to look at her leg.

How did you know OP was a hermaphrodite?

Cause hermaphrodites don't get one of those gender icons.

#25, plus hermaphrodites are the most caring children because they can be "Mama's Boy" and "Daddy's Little Girl" all at the same time.

Yes I agree, massive props on caring for him. He needs you. Glad he's okay.

Seems like a wah-mbulance is what you really need. This is hardly an FML :P

Your comment is in need of serious medical attention, it's dying on the floor. It was pretty heartless, which would be ok if it was at least balanced with some good humour. It wasn't.

well even though you may have twisted your ankle, one good thing came out of if; you know your father isn't in trouble.

I know it's mean but you deserve it for not being optimistic.. I hope you get better

Just what the hell is so optimistic about seeing the ambulance pull up to your house at the same time a relative happens to be sick? What could it mean other than the ambulance is for him?

Next time, maybe you won't wear baggy pants

yeah like OP should've known that something like that was gonna happen (sarcasm)

Maybe he didnt state it clear enough, maybe OP should invest in clothing his size. I do sympathize on the jumping to conclusion thing. Sucks to worry like that

Where at all did OP say they were wearing baggy pants? I trip on my pant legs a lot simply because I'm too short for any pants to fit my legs. OP could have been wearing normal jeans for all we know.
