Today, I woke up feeling ill. My mom sent me to school anyway, and grounded me for "lying" about being sick. As soon as I got to school, I began vomiting blood. FML

Today, I spat up blood and had horrible chest pain. My mom still made me go to school, claiming she needed to take the cat to the vet instead of me to the doctor. FML

Today, I had food poisoning and woke up early in the morning to vomit. My mom emailed all of my teachers saying that I would be late to school because of "morning sickness". Thanks mom. FML

Today, I threw up when I woke up, feeling quite ill, I told my mum. She instantly thought I was pregnant. I'm still a virgin and she doesn't believe me. FML

Today, my mom picked me up from school due to me being sick. Afterwards, she took a detour to the DMV, and I waited in the car. I ended up vomiting everywhere, clothes included, and had to sit in the car for three hours while the taste and smells lingered. FML

Today, it was my first day back to school after break. I wasn't feeling well, but I decided to go anyway. I threw up in the hallway and shit myself at the same time. I waited in the office for my dad to come and get me for almost an hour while wearing dirty underwear. FML

Today, my mom let me stay home from school, because I was sick. We both agreed not to tell my dad, since he's adamant that I never miss even one day of school. A few hours after my mom left for work, he came back home, with another woman. FML

Today, I told my mom that I'd vomited blood. She simply said, “Good” and went back to watching TV. FML

Acting out

Today, I was running to my car, slipped, and slammed my head on the car door. I started driving to the hospital because it was bleeding profusely and I was dizzy, I called my mom to tell her what had happened. She said I was grounded for "goofing off" and that she was "sick of my shit". FML

Today, as usual, without fail, every time I wake up earlier than 10 AM, I vomit blood. No doctor can figure out why, and my parents think I'm lying, spoiled little princess who just wants to be lazy and sleep in every day. If I don’t wake up at 6 AM every day from now on, I’m grounded. FML

Spectacle

By chunderful202 - 24/12/2012 08:46 - United Kingdom - Romford

Today, I woke up with a hangover from hell. My clothes were stained with vomit, I was propped up on the sofa with a bowl between my knees, and my hair tied to one side. My mum was taking photos to send to Grandma. FML

Be sure to mention what your mother did to the emergency room doctors and your teachers.

Could be. Could also be that OP's mom was actually poisoning OP in attempt to avoid the expenses of childcare. There's room for a lot of possibilities when you inject baseless speculation into an FML.

OMG! I hope you're okay and it's nothing too serious. I mean I could see your mom's side if you have tried faking sick one to many times. But if not what the **** is wrong with her?!?! I would assume that you looked pretty pale if you were that sick.

Lucky for you! You’re not really going to miss anything by getting grounded; you’ll be home sick anyway. You’re welcome.

I don’t know how you managed that, but you certainly should get “ungrounded!” Nice trick!

I’d like to chalk this up to ignorance, but I don’t know.

Oh boy. You have a Hispanic mother, OP? My mom thought I was faking it when I had pain near my stomach and couldn't barely walk. Appendix was close to bursting when I got to the hospital. There's something about mom's not believing their kids lol

I'm 29 and when I called my mom about whether I should go to the ER for abdominal pain she was skeptical as to whether I needed to and thought I was being overdramatic. I had to have emergency gallbladder surgery.
