Today, I went on a field trip with some people from school. I'm currently confined to a wheelchair, so I had to rely on my sister to get around. She eventually went off with her friends, assuming that the people nearby would keep me company. Five minutes later, they'd all left me. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I worked up the confidence to go to the mall alone for the first time since being confined to a wheelchair. It didn't even take 20 minutes before some teenager grabbed my wheelchair and tried to race me around, all while his friends watched and laughed. FML
Today, I was chaperoning for my 8-year-old sister's class in school. The bus ride was an hour long, so several people didn't make it to the bathroom in time. Unfortunately, one of them was me. FML
Today, it was our class field trip. I got five dollars from ten different people because they wanted me to sit away from them. FML
Today, I walked around town by myself for four hours because I was too ashamed to tell my parents that I have no friends willing to spend time with me. FML
Today, I was left at home alone while my friends went on a trip to Paris I paid for. FML
Today, instead of having my friends come pick me up, my dad drove me over to visit them. He insisted on walking me up to the door, hugging me goodbye, and making sure my friends were appropriate enough to hang out with. I'm in college. FML
Today, my family and I drove to a mall an hour away. We split up, and I went into a store by myself. A little later, I get a call from my brother asking me where I am. They had already left to go home and didn't notice me missing from the car. They were already halfway home. FML
Today, at the age of 16, I'm recovering from hip surgery. My friends took me out to the movies to cheer me up. They thought it would be hilarious to steal my crutches and leave me stranded and alone in the mall, multiple times. It wasn't. FML
Today, I finally had a chance to get outside after receiving shrapnel to my leg. My crutches had not yet arrived so I didn't want to risk it, but my buddies said they had my back. We went to the seaside and I sat down as they say they'd be right back. It started to rain and everyone forgot me. I can stand, but not walk. FML
Today, I went to the airport with my mom, who requested a wheelchair for me, since I have a broken leg. I'm 24. Embarrassed, I insisted I push myself around, instead of an airline assistant doing it. A few seconds later, I crash into the same airline assistant, who then falls back into my lap. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

If you're such a needy pain in the ass, why are you going on field trips? You can't expect your sister to sacrifice her social life to wheel your lame ass around, right?

So if you were in OP's state you wouldn't care that everyone left you and no one bothered to even ASK if you needed assistance?

that was heartless and cruel. I hope to God you never get confined to a wheelchair.

Nobody likes a sarcastic asshole. It's really not funny.

To be fair, they're not normally in a wheelchair; and temporary wheelchairs (most of the time) are able to be moved by the person sitting in it. I always have to be in a wheelchair during trips that require a lot of walking because of spinal surgery I had when I was 13, so I understand the frustration of not being able to move on your own; but your sister shouldn't have to babysit you. Try to do it on your own; wheeling myself around is kind of fun; for me at least. I mess around when I'm on my wheelchair.

Except it sounds like this wheelchair thing is new and temporary- probably happened after the field trip was planned and paid for. Her sister should be understanding. It's a temporary sacrifice. Just this once she could show a little family responsibility

68- I bet that was a huge strain on your arm muscles at first though... Op is probably getting tired quickly trying to be mobile on their own :( congrats to you for overcoming though!!

79- lol yeah that's true. I did get used to it. Also, controlling it and turning them right is a little tough as well. And thanks :)
