Today, my mother told my little sister and me that she has breast cancer to make us feel sorry so that we would clean our rooms. She is perfectly fine. My little sister still thinks that "mommy is going to die". FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my sister-in-law was diagnosed with breast cancer. My mother then confided in me that she suspected it was a prank to get more money from our family. FML
Today, my mother called me and told me that she went to the hospital. This wasn't a surprise 'cos she normally goes to the hospital for the smallest things. I was a smartass and asked, "What now? You finally have lung cancer from all those cigarettes?" Apparently, she does. FML
Today, my mother told me I'm going to get lung cancer. Because she smokes. FML
Today, I told my mom she made me feel unloved my whole life. She called my sister and apologized. FML
Today, I called my mother to tell her about my terminal cancer diagnosis. She responded with, "What makes you think I care at all?" before hanging up. FML
Today, I visited my ex-girlfriend's house. I saw her mother and asked, "Hi! Have you recovered from that nasty cold that you had for so long?" She said, "I don't have a cold," to which I smiled and said, "That's great to hear!" Turns out she has lung cancer instead. FML
Today, my friend (she's 14) said she had lung cancer. This made me and my other friend very worried for her, but now we know she was faking it since when she was "at the hospital" she was at a friend's house, and her mom came to the school to confirm she was faking the whole thing. FML
Today, I found out that the giant tumour on my leg isn’t cancerous or dangerous. My mom cried, and I was super relieved. Later on, I heard her on the phone in tears because now she won’t be able to get a free vacation or home renovations from the Make A Wish foundation. FML
Today, I told my mother I was doing fine with my classes when I actually wasn't because her mother is dying, and I didn't want her to have more things to stress about. She found out and she's very hurt. I feel awful about it and I know lying wasn't the right thing to do, but in the moment I didn't want to cause her any more pain. FML
Today, my mom told me I'm the reason she's going to kill herself one day. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That's just plain terrible. What about all the suffering people who actually have breast cancer? It's disgusting she would say that.

Well, than that should tell you something... like how to be responsible... if you don't have the willingness to clean up 1 room that has your stuff in it, than you have almost no hope for the future if you're rooming or have your own home and family. I always make my kids clean their room and my 2 older kids (16 and 8) are old enough to know and do without thinking and my youngest (4) is learning. As a parent, I know how your mom feels, it's no fun having your kids not listen to you when you want them to clean their room or do chores, it's not asking a lot. I feel more for your mother, if kids would just listen, than we wouldn't have to manipulate or bribe, and parents don't always like to bribe. I don't blame your mother at all for manipulating you. Grow up a start pulling your own weight. A clean home is a happy home.

If your kids don't do what you expect of them you punish them YOU DON'T TELL THEM YOU HAVE CANCER!! All kids ignore their parents but if your kids are so bad you have to tell them you're DYING to get them to do stuff you have failed as a parent! How anyone can feel sorry for the mother here is beyond me!

Breast Cancer is no joke. Also does anyone else find it strange that the kids first thought after she told them that was to clean their room? If it were me I would have cried not cleaned.
