A more innocent time…

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2014 but it's good stuff - United States - Hillsboro

Today, it's my 20th birthday. I recently came home from college to visit my family, after my mother had a stroke a few weeks back. She ended up being the only person who remembered to get me anything. She also thinks it's still 2009. FML

Hey at least that shows how much she cares about you that despite losing so much of her memory, she still remembered your birthday! Besides, lots of people that care about me wouldn't remember my birthday without some reminder!

A mother never forgets. Sorry about your mom op.

happy birthday OP... your mother might not remember what year it is bit she remembered your birthday.. that's a proof of mother's love

I'd get them all horse shit for their birthday's and laugh about it.

Are you serious?! Your mother just had a stroke and you're whining that nobody has time to celebrate your birthday? I'm sure everyone has their hands full caring for her. You can't honestly expect their world to revolve around you right now.

That's not the point of the story. The idiots of the OP's family didn't remember the op's birthday

They're not idiots for focusing completely on OP's mom right now. The rest of the family has their priorities straight; OP doesn't.

happy birthday. so sorry about your mum

Ur 20. Why do u still expect gifts?
