Today, I broke my toe. My mom didn't think it was necessary to take me to hospital, opting to give me some painkillers instead. They were so strong that I fell asleep for an hour during my exam. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I broke my toe and screamed, "Fuck!" My mom heard and yelled at me for swearing, while I laid on the floor in pain. FML
Today, I fell down the stairs and landed heavily on my foot. Because I wasn't crying, my mom refused to take me to the hospital. It took me an hour of agony to convince her. It turned out to be broken in three different places. FML
Today, I had a very important test. Last night, I'd had such bad leg pains that I couldn't sleep, so I took two very strong painkillers and went to sleep pain-free. I apparently accidentally overdosed, because when I woke up, I couldn't see properly or even stand up. And I missed my test. FML
Today, I slipped and fell down the stairs, landing hard on my knee. Through my screams of agony, my mom accused me of exaggerating the pain, and said I was just being an attention seeker, before finally taking me to hospital. I was told my leg was broken. She refused to apologize. FML
Today, I had an ingrown toenail cut out, and the pain medication I received doesn't actually help with the pain. Instead, it makes me high, which results in me losing my balance and slamming my injured toe into objects, and then getting sick from that new pain. FML
Today, I had a headache when I woke up for school. I had final exams that day, so I took what I thought were 2 advils. They were two sleeping pills. 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
Today, I texted my mom if she could pick me up from the hospital. She replied, "No fatty, walk home." I have a broken foot. FML
Today, since my family and friends always make fun of me for being a wuss when it comes to pain, when I stubbed my toe, I made a point to not scream or complain in any way. Instead, I vomited and fainted. FML
Today, I was on autopilot, walking out of the bathroom, and separated my pinky toe from the rest of my toes over the door frame. I dropped to the ground in pain, and my toe and half my foot still hurts hours later. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

At least you don't have to feel the pain of failing.

why does a mom have painkillers if she isn't using it?

go to the hospital for a broken toe? all they will do is tape it and give you pain meds.

When I broke my toe, my mom thought the toe just popped out of place and was gonna pop it back into place. After I went to the doctor, I was really glad I didn't let my mom pop it back into place.

you don't even need pain killers for a broken toe. I've broken my pinkie toes so much they don't bend or anything and I never once needed a pain killer

why didn't you just drive yourself?
ydi_4_suking 20
probably because the toe was broken. kinda painful to drive with a freshly broken toe

Yeah but it's kinda awkward when, ya know, your toe is attached to your foot.

She's a highschool/post secondary student. She probably doesn't have a car.

Dammit, I knew there was something I did wrong today. I told Sam the hobo to fill it up with the strongest shit possible and that fool put in horse tranqs. Don't worry you guys will get a full refund, your mom's one of my best costumers. Just let me beat Sam with a garden hose first.

You must have a very low pain threshold. That was pretty nice of your mom, don't blame her just because you're a clumsy oaf.

When I broke my toe, the doctor made a "living splint".

it's not necessary to go to the hospital for a broken toe. at most they will x-ray and tape it to the next one but more than likely they will say there's nothing to be done and to let it heal on it's own. grow a pair and deal with it.

the mom should have known to tape it but didn't. so yes, OP should have went to the dr.
