Today, my mom and dad played rock, paper, scissors over who gets to spend the night with me in the hospital tonight while I have surgery. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to go to the hospital. While I was there, my mom started hitting on a doctor. Later I saw them making out in the room next to me. FML
Today, my parents had a loud argument over who is worse in bed. 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 had surgery on my arm. My mom has recently had the same surgery, and my dad is having his first rib removed and won't be able to move his arm. My family combined now has three functioning arms. FML
Today, I woke up to my mother telling me to sit up and get dressed because we had to go before it was too late. I had just woken up from surgery. She didn't want to be stuck in traffic. FML
Today, I'm going to visit my mother in hospital. She broke her hip and my father refused to take her to hospital for 6 days, insisting she would get better. My dog had cancer surgery, which will cost me a whole month's salary. I’m still recovering from 2 major surgeries myself, and my kids are being total dorks. FML
Today, I found out my mom has been telling my entire family I need surgery on my "Labia" instead of my "Labrum". I went from needing shoulder surgery to needing vagina surgery with one group text. Thanks, mom. FML
Today, I talked to my mom about hanging out with her. She got out her phone to schedule an appointment. FML
Today, my boyfriend's bitch of a mother had surgery and now I'm expected to be her at-home nurse. I haven't been able to sit down for more than 5 minutes thanks to her and I've barely slept. FML
Today, I had 3 teeth pulled. Due to the anaesthesia, my mom came along to drive me home. Halfway through my surgery, she decided to leave and go shopping with her friend. She even left a note with the receptionist, saying that I needed to take on my own adult responsibilities. FML

Now, one clarification: winner had to stay or go?

Gets to or has to?

If it's "gets to" you should be happy because they both want to stay. If it's "has to" you should be upset because neither wants to stay.

If that happened to me I would ask then to both leave and not bother turning up in the evening. If they act like children then teach them like children, you've just had bloody surgery and your parents don't even want to sit with you in the evening? That's shameful, they should be bloody embarrassed by themselves.

It's not that they didn't want to sit with them after, it's that they didn't want to stay OVERNIGHT, which usually involves sleeping in a chair. If you sleep at all.

Dad lost, so he had to stay. Mom went home . My parents are seperated, and my mom has 3 other kids that needed to be home with. I'm doing well thank you everyone.

Ditto, except they did it for who was going to drive me to the hospital while my appendix was about to burst

This is how I'm seeing this: you're parents are confident enough that the surgery is going to go well that they would rather stay at home and sleep. You know, in their own bed and not a chair or a hospital bed.
