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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

So would you rather still have the hole in your mouth? Get over it. It's not like they dug up someone's grave, hacked them up, and stuck some of the pieces in your mouth. I know someone who had intestinal surgery that required them to use the lining of a cow's stomach. Just be grateful you don't have dead cow in you.

No, I see what #43 is saying. The OP has 'learnt' with a capital I, not an L. Look closely; you'll notice a height difference.

Calls die and are replaced all the time. In a couple of months it will be all your own tissue. Even if you had a new heart it would eventually be all your own.

cells? Interesting point tho.

Doesn't work like that. Cells replicate from cells - if the heart belongs to someone else then the new heart cells will contain the donor's DNA, not the recipient's. This is why transplant patients have to take immunosuppressor drugs for the rest of their lives to prevent the donated organ being mistaken for a foreign body by the immune system and rejected.

so before we go making incorrect assumptions... skin donation is probably what you have to fill the "hole" - and yes it's from a cadaver aka deceased person who was kind enough to do so - so please a little thanks here - autologous grafts (grafts from yourself) cause some pretty serious scarring so it's not ideal donated "tissue" is healthy and easier to deal with bc it's processed in a manner that generally allows it to become what tissue it needs to become....

This is so common. It's not an FML. You breathe dead skin all day.
