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!

You're mom had a stroke a few weeks back.. You're concerned that everyone didn't remember your 20th birthday.. They've had their plates pretty full recently. FYL indeed

Your mom had a stroke. Maybe they are worrying about caring for her?

Maybe the others forgot because they've been focused on your mum and her stroke.

Let's be honest. We all still think it's 2009
