Today, I found out my dad has a 1-in-a-million disease that makes your liver process pain medication at twice the rate of a normal person. If that wasn't bad enough, he also tells me he hopes I don't have it too, because it can be passed down. He said this because I'm 29 weeks pregnant. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out my father didn't have a rare brain disease, and that he was just an alcoholic. I've been taking care of him every time his "brain disease" acts up, for 2 years. FML
Today, my father, who I haven't spoken to in over 12 years, contacted me. He just wanted to let me know that I should get tested for a rare neurological disease. The only thing the man has given to me since my conception is potentially a death certificate. FML
Today, I’m getting a very interesting demonstration of how genetics work: I have inherited all my dad’s health issues, plus those from my mom, plus a bunch of new ones that belong exclusively to me. FML
Today, I had a seizure. My dad responded by saying it always happens with my disease. I never have had a disease. Now I have to wait for my dad to stop yelling at my mom about not telling me, so I can ask what I have in the first place. FML
Today, I'm found out I'm pregnant. My husband and I spoke at length about how we were going to handle things, which included him "forbidding" me from having an epidural, because he doesn't want our baby to "come out addicted to drugs." FML
Today, I found out that I have a heart disease. When I went to tell my family, they all said that it should kill me faster so that I can donate my organs to my cousin. FML
Today, I got my medical checkup back. Apparently, I'm diagnosed with a liver condition generally found in alcoholics. I've never drank in my life. FML
Today, my dad’s in hospice, my son was diagnosed with a second rare disease, my wife is unemployed with alcohol and depression issues, to the extent of having ruined our marriage by driving us into bankruptcy. I have high blood pressure and quite honestly, I’m surprised I haven’t had a stroke or a heart attack with all this. FML
Today, my father informed me that I was born only because my mom lied about being on birth control. FML
Today, I found out that my unborn son has an abnormally large head. I have an abnormally small and narrow pelvis, and I'm allergic to local anesthetic, so no epidural or spinal for me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

ok he told her this for two reasons she is going to have a baby and wants her to know so she can tell the child or for the pain meds she is planing on getting through labor

As a mom who has given birth 'the natural way', without any pain medication, I can promiss it can definitely be done and isn't as terrible as you might expect. I only found the actual delivery painful, but labour to me was a piece of cake (all 60+ hours of it!). I hope for your sake that you can benefit from an epidural, but if you can't: don't panic! It's really not all that bad ;-)

137- Chocolate is bad for you, but it's still approved. Energy drinks are bad (HORRIBLE) for you, but are still approved. McDonalds is bad for you, but is still approved. Do you get my point now? Just because something isn't the best for someone doesn't mean it won't be approved.

You'll be fine. Just use natural childbirth methods like breathing and walking around during labor.

I thought breathing was a natural method to stay alive. I'm sure it'd be required during childbirth as well. But indeed, you could definitely survive it without pain medication.
