Today, I fractured a bone in my knee. Now not only do I have to wear a huge knee brace for the next two months, I'll have to sit around in a hotel room all of next week while my family has fun skiing in the mountains. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, three days into my vacation, I ended up spraining not one, but BOTH of my ankles. Now my entire vacation will be spent healing. FML
Today, after I fell over and fractured my knee, I've been in hospital for a week. I now have a metal plate in my knee, and am due to be off work for months, I wouldn't mind as much if I hadn't been hit by a car two years ago, spent a week in hospital for a fractured vertebrae, and was off work for months. FML
Today, I was supposed to leave for Switzerland for a month, to see my boyfriend whom I haven't seen for over 6 months. Unfortunately, I broke my leg three days ago and I now I need to stay home and get surgery. FML
Today, I slipped and fell on a piece of plastic. I thought nothing of it until I went to the doctor's and found out that I fractured and dislocated my kneecap. I'm now in a full leg brace and crutches. Prom is five days away. FML
Today, on my first ski run down a mountain, I dislocated my patella. Now I get to watch out of the window as my family builds a snowman and names it after me. FML
Today, my parents told me that I'm going on our upcoming family vacation and that's final. I broke both my legs in an accident and have to use a wheelchair. I"m in constant pain and don't want to go anywhere. FML
Today, I went to my doctor to get my x-ray results. Turns out, I have a fractured spine and a chip of my spine has moved. Now I'm in a neck brace because my dad didn't think it was serious, and told me to "suck it up princess." FML
Today, after months of begging, I finally convinced my friends to go skiing with me. On our first run I suggested a race. Everybody loved the idea. Good news: I came in first. Bad news: I tore a ligament in my knee. It will be operated on tomorrow. FML
Today, I fractured my tibia, fibula, and tore a tendon in my ankle. How? You might ask. By stepping in a hole at soccer practice. Now I’ll be out for the entire season with months of rehab. FML
Today, my doctor called and asked me when I could have my broken hand x-rayed again. I said the ER staff had told me it was a bad sprain over two weeks ago. I'm now in a full cast, and have to have my partially healed bones re-broken. There goes my summer. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Or you can play Skyrim and tell everyone about how you took an arrow to the knee.

I like that idea.

I don't. Stay bored AND get fat? How about you try going for a walk (if you have the ability) and enjoy the snowy nature?

Don't forget CoD and sportscenter.

Call me crazy, but I'm pretty sure the last thing you wanna do with a broken knee is walk on it. I bruised a bone in my knee, and was forced to stay off of it for two weeks. But maybe sit at the window and enjoy the snowy nature? While scarfing on some room service food!

You're life sucks op but on the bright side at least your family can afford a skiing vacation and medical care :) always a silver lining! Enjoy your vacation

I agree with 15 about enjoying the snowy outdoors. If you can't walk and ski then there must be SOMETHING else you can do. I don't live anywhere near snow and have only seen it once, but I loved every minute of being there, even though I couldn't ski to save my life. But that's just me.. I dream of living somewhere that it snows and being able to go for walks all bundled up then relax by a fire with a hot drink and a good book. :)

Op, your in the US. It's spring, and it feels like summer. Where the hell are you skiing?
buck33 14
95 - there is plenty if snow in the rocky mountains, where I live. Here, you can ski til July, because even though it's 90 degrees in the valley, it's still cold up there.

#43 *thwack* NO! BAD INTERNET, NO! *rubs Moody's nose in the joke*
False_Stupidity 42
Actually 43's comment was actually the only good, semi-relevant use of that overused Skyrim joke i've seen.

Cheer up, OP. Who knows? Maybe they'll fracture a bone in their knees.

I can compare to u. I got sick because water was too cold to swim in. While my family is having fun I sit in bad watching tv all day :(

How can OP drive with a fractured knee?
TheFakeFamilyGuy 10
Why would his family get drunk skiing?
metalwolf 17
Last i checked, most people have two legs. If OP has a automatic transmission then driving is still possible, although uncomfortable.

They rarely do casts any more, they do braces. I broke my tibia skiing in December.
ShyAnn29 15
It depends, if he broke his right knee, then he wouldn't be able to drive

Yes, they do not like to use them anymore. And man I am sorry that sucks.

You could become one of those mono-skiers you see on the x games
MCweSCRAPPY 2
Screw that. Go hard everyday. Snowboarding with a torn LCL and strained MCL like a bau5. Just take enough Lortab as to where you can't feel it. I love riding too much
TheEpicMilkMan 13
ouch sorry to hear that :( but on the bright side you can **** around in the hotel?
xXxIracebethxXx 14
With his broken knee? The most OP can do is watch TV, eat, sleep, read a book, and do the most horrible boring things you can think of while on vacation. Of course, unless you want to throw a Broken Knee party for all the other hotel people with the same issue, then that's okay, too. C:
TheEpicMilkMan 13
lol true, true but I would attend the party to make OP feel better C:

The female superior position works fine for a guy with a cast.
xXxIracebethxXx 14
88 - Lol, as would I. I'd bring some hot cocoa and food and balloons and my pet uni-tiger. It would be one hell of a party! :D
Jiplo 18
OP's choice: xbox or ps3
TheEpicMilkMan 13
yes :D lol sounds fun C:
maxamus951852 3
Maybe you could order some adult channels and ********** a lot? Its what they wouldve wanted..
nfjskcbdkdjdjdn 2
Yes, my family always wants me to ********** when I fracture a bone in my knee…
pimpnainteasy 5
Do you even know how to ski?
SpottedZebra42 14
Nope. OP just went along for the hotel. Now, instead of watching his family ski, he's watching them ski while he has a fractured knee bone.
Meowingtons500 18
Awh, accidents suck. I broke my ankle at hockey tryouts, was out for the season. It was horrible. :(
