Today, after recently having had surgery, I Iearnt that some extra tissue was needed to cover up the hole in the roof of my mouth. Where did they get this tissue? From a dead person. I now have the flesh of a dead person in my mouth, which by the way is now infected. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after a very painful mouth surgery, I went home to take a nap. Then my nose started bleeding, so I stuck a tissue in it and fell asleep. When I woke up, I was so high from painkillers that when I saw the tissue, I thought it was a ghost. I screamed so loud I burst a stitch. FML
Today, I got a tooth pulled out. I now have a hole connecting my mouth to my nose. Drinking and eating is whole new experience. FML
Today, I woke up from my wisdom tooth surgery… while they were still sawing my jaw. I had such a bad panic response that they also cut my lip, so I have stitches inside and outside of my mouth, as well as the haunting crackle of bone being removed from my skull stuck in my head. FML
Today, I was rushed to the ER due to a very swollen foot and high fever. The doctors said I just have a tissue infection but my parents believe I have a flesh eating disease. I can hear them discussing my future with an amputated leg. FML
Today, I had a dentist appointment in which a nurse numbed my mouth. After coming home, I took a nap in which I unknowing bit through my top lip. I physically can't speak. FML
Today, I was taking my earrings out and thought I had lost the back of one. Turns out my ear infection has caused the flesh of my ear to grow around and engulf the back of my earring and it is still stuck in there. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to get a cavity filled. The numbing medication didn't work, so I felt everything. I was in so much pain that I accidentally bit down on the dentist's finger, causing him to yell in agony. Now, I have to find a new dentist. FML
Today, after having my tonsils removed, I coughed so hard in my sleep that I woke up spitting blood. Turned out I'd ripped my throat. They had to put me to sleep and cauterize the damaged area. Now I'm in even worse pain than before. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to get a tooth worked on. I got tongue-tied and instead of asking if they could anesthetize me, I accidentally asked if they could euthanize me. FML
Today, I got a meat pie for lunch. I bit into it and felt something hard. I spat it out. It was a tooth. I checked my mouth in a panic and discovered, with mixed feelings of relief and horror, that the tooth wasn’t mine. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You know how much it means that you got a donation from a dead person? Nothing. Nothing at all, I don't give a shit that it came form a dead person, the needing surgery, and the area which was operated on being infected perhaps, but any tissue replacement comes from either your legs, or a dead person.

While I agree that you should be grateful that you are alive and no longer have a hole in your mouth, that's disgusting. it's really one thing to have an organ transplant or skin grafted from another person onto burns or something, but to know that an infected piece of tissue from another person (alive or dead) is in your MOUTH... *excuses herself to go vomit* ...is just too much. I'm so sorry. FYL.

cadaveric transplants are very common. it's not gross. it's just a bunch of cells treated with synthetics. I suppose they could have left the hole in the roof of your mouth. grow up

is it infected because u didn't take care of it right? because people are nice enough to donate their bodies so people don't have to have more extensive and painful surgery to get tissue from another place on their own body, which that body part needs. the tissue was sterilized and clean. take care of it and be thankful!

Yeah, sucks to be you. The higher-class hospitals usually grab someone off the street and use tissue from a living person instead. Oh, speaking of transplants from dead people, did you know that Alistaire Cooke, the famous TV historian had his bones sold on the transplant black market after he died? Some people from Biomedical Tissue Services of Fort Lee, New Jersey went to jail over that one. Also, when he died, the cancer had spread to his bones. I can't wait to see the FMLs from the poor buggers who received *those* transplants.
