Today, after getting my appendix taken out, we had to drive over five sets of railroad tracks. Then, my four year-old brother decided to punch me in the stomach because, "I took away his mommy for two days." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Little shit
Today, I was asked to take care of my 3 year-old little brother. After 15 minutes of him screaming and me trying to keep him entertained, he started throwing his toy cars at me. He hit me in the mouth, and I started to bleed. My parents yelled at me for "not controlling him." FML
A mother's love…
Today, I crawled into my mom's room to tell her my stomach was in massive pain. She ended up throwing me out of the room while spraying me with Lysol. My appendix was about to burst and I needed surgery. FML
Today, what started with me forcing a shit a little too hard ended up with me being rushed to the hospital with appendicitis. FML
Today, I had debilitating stomach cramps and told my mom, but she said she was too tired to take me to the ER. I had appendicitis. Thanks Mom. FML
E.R.
Today, I drove a friend to the emergency room because he thought he had appendicitis. While sitting in the waiting room, I got puked on by a child. My friend's diagnosis? Gas. So he also farted all the way home. FML
What is happening to me?
Today, my son was up at 3:00 am crying due to excruciatingly severe pain in his groin. I took him to the ER. After nine hours consisting of two different hospitals, an ambulance ride, a CAT scan, an ultrasound, and possible appendicitis, the surgeon finally said he was just constipated. FML
Today, I had to take my little brother to the pool. He acted like a brat the whole time, and when I told him we were leaving, he ran away, slipped, and hit his face on the tile floor. He told my dad and step-mom I punched him. They believed him, and I'm grounded for two months. FML
Today, I was supposed to be enjoying a long-anticipated, desperately needed, weekend away. Turns out those "little stomach twinges" were actually symptoms of appendicitis. I'm stuck in the hospital, alone, recovering from surgery, while my family is enjoying our non-refundable break. FML
Today, my dog used my stomach as a trampoline to jump onto the couch. I wouldn't have minded so much if I wasn't still recovering from having my appendix removed. FML
Shitshow
Today, my 4 year-old son got a hole in his head from doing a twirl jump off bricks out the back. After being in hospital for 8 hours, my car battery was flat from me leaving the lights on. My husband went to get a new battery and lost his wallet. FML

That brother deserves to be punched in the stomach MUCH harder. Sometimes you can tell when a kid's gonna grow up to be an asshole...

Ow. Whilst I can understand your brother being upset about you 'stealing his mummy', how spoilt is he that he feels that it's ok to punch you in the stomach? Get better soon though, OP.

they don't let you out just after your appendix is removed lol. You must stay at hospital for few days.

Yeah if he reacts like this now, imagine what he'll do when he's older or puberty. Good luck dude!

Actually, they do sometimes let you out the same day for a surgery like that, if it was laparoscopic anyway.

Depends on if you had insurance or not or what kind, after I had mine taken out I was released about 12 hours later.

It didn't have to be the same-day. Every FML starts with "Today, ...."

bummer, you can't eat grass now (N)

@4 he obviously doesnt mean today literally. saying today to start and FML to end is just the format.

YDI for taking away his mommy for two days. very understandable on his part :P
OliviaNicole 5
Ouch! I know how this feels, trust me. I had some cancerous tumors in my stomach when I was little and i had them removed. on the way home my dad took all the back roads, which were bumpy as hell. FYL OP, and kill that bastard you call a brother.

4 the brother hit him for taking his mom away for 2 days, OP was in hospital 2 days, the mum stayed with him, he didn't get released on the same day as the surgery or the brother would have had no reason to hit him.

four is old enough to be taught right from wrong and to be scolded for doing something wrong. a little boy the other day was playing with his big brother and they were playing fighting in the pool with foam toys. the little boy picked up a hard toy and threw it at his brother. they laughed but u could tell the teenager was in pain from getting hit in the face and the mom scolded the little boy (not harshly of course bc he was still very young). I hope ur mom said something to ur brother

#50, he's ******* 4 years old, are you serious? And having an appendix removed sucks, FYL for not being smart enough to realize that the mother should allocate her attention to a serious medical procedure.

it depends for getting out. I had to stay 2 weeks after because mine almost exploded. FYL cause when u got mine out I had a cold and was coughing. I don't get why your parents hadn't told your brother you were still sick

I suggest kicking him in the head fist->stomach=foot->head right?

I think u should reread it op took away the childs mom for 2days most likely that means she was at the hospital for 2 days with her other child.

Once you get up, think about this. 4 year old's punch to the stomach after getting an organ removed = your hardest punch to a 4 year old's perfectly fine stomach. See if he likes it.

I would have kicked him out of the vehicle onto a crowded highway and see if he gets hit. He needs to learn newtons law about actions and greater reactions

godofcyanide 8
How spoiled is he? That's a trick question, right, since the OP is American? :D Seriously, we've raised a generation of spoiled brats, and we're working on a second.
Cinn_fml 23
Ok, I'll rephrase; How spoilt is the little brother that he thinks it's ok to punch his older brother shortly after having what was potentially life threatening surgery? Didn't think even Americans were that bad :P
godofcyanide 8
We've raised an army of spoiled children in this country. I know; I teach the little brats. I tell them each gray hair in my beard represents one of them. ;) Honestly, hard to tell if OP's brother is truly spoiled rotten, or if he's just four. He's still quite young.
Cinn_fml 23
That is true, if it had been a temper tantrum then yes, it's just the fact that he's four. It's the fact that he felt the need to punch his brother in his stomach, and surely at some point it would have been explained to him what had happened to his big brother, even in really simplistic terms.
Kikren 0
I'm American and throughout my life I have had to work for everything I get. I had to get a job at 14 years old, I am an A honor role student, and my parents take my paycheck. We are upper class. I am never going to be spoiled and neither will my children.
avoidthegirl 6
It's not even that he's four; he's just a whiny little brat. My fiance had an emergency appendectomy last September and had to spend his recovery time at his parents since I had to finish up school and couldn't stay to take care of him. His mom babysat three of his cousins, the oldest being four and they were all very courteous and concerned about him. Mostly because they wanted him to play with them but whatever. They would go running around the house and slow down to a walk any time they went past him. It was cute :)
Cinn_fml 23
@Kikren - I hope that wasn't directed at me because I was only kidding when I said something about Americans being spoilt (hence why there was a :P at the end of it). @Avoidthegirl - My point was that if the kid had just said and whined that the OP had taken his mum away for two days, that would have been because he was four. I mean, obviously this isn't ideal behaviour even then, but children don't always have ideal behaviour, some grow out of it and others unfortunately don't. Obviously the punching the OP in the stomach suggests that the kid is just a brat. Though most of the four year olds I've ever known wouldn't have complained once their parents had explained the severity of the situation their big sibling would've been in if they'd been in the same situation. So yeah, I do agree with you that it's out of line.

it's not because he is spoiled he was just missing his mommy
CantusVulpis 12
I think he probably didn't do it on purpose. I mean, punching him, yeah, but he is 4 and most likely didn't know really anything about the surgery.

Your brother is going to grow up be an asshole.

Ouch! I was slapped after my wisdom tooth surgery 'cause I mouthed off to my sister when I was detoxing off vicodin. The best course of action is, revenge. I'm sure the posters will offer many (original) tactics. Feel better OP - and show that little punk he's a jealous buttface.
TheIrishJaneDoe 9
While she shouldn't have done that, unless you were medicated for longer than usual, dosed too heavily, or you had an abnormal reaction or hypersensitivity to the medication, you shouldn't have been detoxing from Vicodin after such a short time. It's prescribed sparingly, and you normally wouldn't take it long enough to cause a physical dependency resulting in detox/withdrawl symptoms. If the exceptions I stated didn't apply to you, the detox was probably psychosomatic or just plain ol' pain symptoms. I have enough experience with both to say that prolonged pain can mimic detox. Occasionally, opiates can actually lower your tolerance for pain and cause hypersensitivity to it, but that generally takes much longer to develop, and is most often seen in chronic pain patients. Yes, I'm aware that I know more about this pain/opiate thing than the average 27 year old should. -_-

I hope your mom spanked your brother for that, thats just sick! Good luck!
alex112094 5
His brother is like 4 years old. He probably didn't know what happened to OP.

Kids need to understand that hitting is NEVER allowed, unless in selfdefence. If you feel different fine, but being 4 is not an excuse to hit someone!

The pain after having your appendix removed is ridiculous. It hurt to even move when I had mine out. if someone had hit me I would have murdered them.
