Today, I tore my ACL while doing physical therapy that's supposed to keep me from tearing my ACL. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste

Today, as I was putting some dishes away, I spilled water on the floor. While walking around the dishwasher, I slipped on said water, and after going to urgent care, found out I tore my meniscus. 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

Healthy life goals
Today, after a month and a half of recovering from a sprained ankle, I was back in the gym training. After a grueling, sweaty session on the treadmill, I tripped walking down the stairs which sprained my other ankle. Back to round one. FML

Today, I injured my knee at a Zumba class, a class I joined to lose weight so my knees wouldn't hurt so much. Now I can't even go for a leisurely walk. FML

Can I get a raincheck?
Today, I fell down my backyard steps at my own housewarming party, ended up breaking my ankle, and am now non-weight bearing for 10 weeks. I'm supposed to start a new job tomorrow, where I'm always on my feet. FML

This FML is from back in 2019 but it's good stuff
Shelved plans
Today, after spending two hard months losing 20 pounds of my 80 pound goal, I was actually excited to exercise. After I was done exercising, I fell down the stairs and broke my ankle. FML

Heavy load
Today, I was getting ready for work. When I stepped back, my ankle rolled and my fat ass landed on it with my foot sideways under me. Now I’m in a boot for 6 weeks and have 6 weeks of physical therapy ahead of me. FML

Well whoever your therapist is, they need to regress whatever type of exercise you were doing to help you recover. Sucks tho :(

I did the same thing. It sucks, but I hope you get better, op!

Damned if you do, Damned if you don't. Or least that's the way it seems to me.

Damn that sucks OP. I tore the same thing May last year. The exercises to help it recover aren't to friendly either. My advice? Crutches for a few weeks

...shouldn't your ACL be torn to get physical therapy?

You'll be fine. Don't listen to the people saying your athletic days are over. I've torn the ACL and meniscus in both knees. I had the right one fixed in 2010 and the left one fixed in 2012. I was fully recovered and back to playing in 6 months. My advice, don't be timid. If you're going to favor your knee then don't return to sports. Do your exercises as your told during recovery and you'll do great.

I don't want to imagine how much that hurts.
