Today, my father tripped over the dog and hit a wall. He was so convinced his arm was broken that we waited for 3 hours in emergency to find out he had a bruise. 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 fell going down the stairs and hit my head on the wall. My parents came frantically running to my side, but only to make sure I hadn't damaged the wall. FML

Today, two days after leaving hospital with a broken left leg, I tripped and fell heavily on the floor. My dad quickly asked if I'd broken my other leg. When I reassured him that I hadn't, he disappointedly muttered that it would've been a hilarious story to tell his friends at work. FML

Agony

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

Priorities

Today, I had whiplash after my dad and I were rear ended by a suburban. Despite the state trooper saying I should go, my dad delayed taking me to the ER because he wanted to pick up the dog from "doggy daycare" and take her for a nice long walk, while I waited for my mom to come home. FML

Today, I heard my dad screaming in the hallway. Thinking he was having a heart attack I ran to the hall without looking where I was going. I slipped and slid towards my dad in what turned out to be a mass quantity of diarrhea from one of my two dogs. He was screaming because he stepped in it. FML

Today, I tripped over a dog and broke my elbow. I'm stuck dogsitting for the rest of the weekend and he won't stop jumping up at my broken arm. FML

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, my boyfriend tried to climb up to my third story window in the early hours of the morning. Just before he got to the top, he slipped and fell to the ground. My dad had to drive him to the hospital at 3am. FML

He only had to wait 3 hours?! That is not a long emergency wait, it could have been worse (I had to wait 12 hours when I broke my ankle).

Doggone it! Maybe a bit overdramatic? How's the dog doing? Not barking mad I hope

He was very dramatic, my dad doesn't like going to the hospital unless it's absolutely necessary. He cut an artery in his foot once and didn't go. He applied the right procedure though, he has lots of experience! Lol

That's why I'm thankful there is an Urgent Care near my house.

It took me half an hour to get my broken wrist seen and x-rayed

I live in rural Ontario; the hospital covers many small areas. Another factor to the horrendous wait time was because there were a ton of ambulance call-ins.

I broke my leg once and I didn't even have to wait for an hour

6 hours to get in when I was an agoraphobic ball of panic that had to be bodily dragged from closet, bedroom, house, car, just to get there. I spent 6 hours going from one panic attack to another. I was lucky the nurses on staff were able to see how freaked the **** out I was and let me and my family sit in another room instead of the main waiting area, but still. Six hours to get sedated and admitted to the psych ward at age 14.
