Today, my mom tells my sister that she is worried about her because she has a headache and feels like she might be getting a slight cold. I have had the flu for two weeks and have a 103 degree fever. I ask, "What about me?" Her response? "Stay away from your sister." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had a horrible case of the flu. I have a fever of 102 degrees and I can't breathe through my nose. Choosing to sleep it off turns out to be enough for my mom to call me a lazy fuck and scream at me for doing nothing all day. FML
Today, after I sent my daughter to her best friend's house for a week, who lives three hours away, her friend's mom got really sick half way through. My daughter came home early because the mom was too sick. Now my daughter isn't feeling well and I just found the mom has the flu. FML
Today, after almost a week of being bed-ridden with a bad flu, my mom told me it was my job to clean the house. When I told her I still had a fever and didn't feel well, she looked at me and said in an understanding voice "It's okay honey, you can do it slowly." FML
Today, my mom threatened to kick me out for asking if I could skip church for the next few weeks, because, you know, I have Covid and have been told to isolate for ten days, which obviously includes two Sundays. The woman would rather I infect her congregation than let me stay in bed while sick. FML
Today, I’ve been suffering with a fever of 104° as well as an ear and sinus infection. I asked my mom and sister if they could get me meds and fluids from the store. I sent them money through my bank app for the supplies. They took my money and went to lunch instead. I’m still sick as a dog. FML
Today, my mother told my little sister and me that she has breast cancer to make us feel sorry so that we would clean our rooms. She is perfectly fine. My little sister still thinks that "mommy is going to die". FML
Today, my mother bitched me out for not coming to my sister's birthday tomorrow. She's 25 and lives at home, and she, my mother, and father all have Covid. FML
Today, my mum went and told everyone she only went to the doctor after being ill because my brother told her to. It was me who'd been telling her for weeks to go. FML
Today, the day after visiting my grandparents, I woke up with a sore throat and guttural cough. Once again, my mother neglected to tell me that she'd gotten cold symptoms after I saw her. Now I get to hope that she hasn't given me Covid again, and I haven't given it to my frail grandmother. FML
Today, I woke up with a fever, headache and sore throat. All the symptoms of Covid-19. I told my husband, whose responded with, "Sack up and get over yourself." FML

Cough all over your moms toothbrush, silverware, clothes, anything she comes in close contact to.

Bit of an inconsiderate mother. But you might wanna consider the fact that since you've had it for two weeks, she's a little worried your sister will too.

Exactly. OP is not the center of the universe and her mom probably just doesn't want her sister to get sick as well. I doubt OP has been denied any and all pampering in 2 weeks, especially when she's so willing to pipe up with, "WHAT ABOUT MEEEEEE!?!?!?"

Yes. This. Doing it in full view of yourt mother is also acceptable. MAke sure you "accidentally" do it when she's watching though.

Don't be the ass that rockstar wants you to be. And stay away from your sister. She doesn't need your flu. And stop thinking you're the center of every conversation.

it's called the youngest child syndrome.

Or older child syndrome... depending on the parents.

Not really an FML, unless your mum hadn't cared at all while you've been sick. There's no reason why your mum can't be worried about your sister as well, and telling you to stay away from her while you're obviously sick and your sister seems like she's coming down with something is just common sense.

BTW, the flu only lasts a week with high temps. At least the Swine flu does (that's the only one that causes a fever for a full 7 days). Also, if you had a high fever like that for that long, you would not be alive without someone constantly hydrating you. That's one of the biggest reason people die, dehydration. Stop overreacting and being melodramatic and whiny.
