Today, my mom came back from a major surgery. She also had a yeast infection. I had to push the applicator in because she couldn't bend down. This cannot be unfelt. FML
asausa tells us more.

Hi! OP here- I didn't realize this was ever published and I finally bothered logging back into my account after 2 years. I'm a girl- so it was less traumatic than it would have been if I was a boy. For those wondering, my mom had her uterus removed , so you can bet she couldn't bend down to put it up. The doctor said the cream was better than the pill so hence that's how I ended up there ...

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

After doing a health care aids job for a while this isn't so bad... Suppositories and wiping bums are much worse

I think doing it for a living is one thing and you get use to it. Doing it for you mom.. Is a completely different level.

At the time I was doing it for clinical for nursing, wasn't my career lol, but still it's difficult to learn how to be in a persons personal space at first

Uhhhhhh has anyone ever heard of diflucan? One pill for a yeast infection and that is IT!

Not all yeast infections respond to treatment with diflucan.

You are a great child to her and I apologize for your very, very scarring experience, OP.

I would never do that.

They make oral pill form medication for yeast infections that can be described by a doctor. You really didn't have to do that. Gross. You deserved it.

Prescribed* damn auto correct

Yes, because it's completely OP's responsibility to get a prescription for his/her mom's infection that he/she might not have even known about until said mom told OP to put in the applicator. Not to mention that maybe OP, despite the grossness of the act, was kind enough to do that instead of making his/her mom wait any longer just to get a prescription, considering what a pain yeast infections can be.

It's also possible that a pill wouldn't have helped OP's mom anyway. Not all yeast infections are created equally, and they don't all respond to oral medication. The vaginal suppository may have been her only option.
