Maybe OP is the reason he's at the hospital? But let's keep that between you and me.

Me either. It isn't as if the hospital rooms don't TVs. He can turn it on, or go back to sleep.

hey hey comics are timeless

Maybe her hubby asked her to bring it at a later time.

both their lives suck. however, he could ask the night nurse to drug him up so he's not bothering his wife.

True, true. She most probably did.

96 hours= 8 days. Ouch!!!! Is all I can say.

All I can say is: you suck at math.

ROFL. 4* days.

That's more like it ;)

op never said she was mad. all she said was fml.

I think the fact that she considers her life f'ed implies some resentment, or anger. if she wasn't upset at all, she wouldn't consider her life f'ed about it...

Pussy-whipped! :)

Or loves his wife, you dick.

Or is both, you smelly sardines.

I agree. Whipped like crazy. Doc I thought you had a backbone? This is a whole new side of you we've never seen!

Holy shit, you people are selfish and weak. I agree with Doc 100%, and I'm neither married or in any sort of relationship. When someone you love is sick or still recovering you always put their wants and needs before yours. Sometimes just the smallest things (like reading some comic books) can make your day a hell of a lot better. I understand it sucks waking up that early especially when you haven't gotten much sleep, but sometimes you just gotta toughen up and just do it.

You don't think it's selfish to ask your significant other to risk their own life for a ******* comic book? Severe sleep depravation is just as bad, if not worse, than driving drunk. You could fall asleep driving and your reaction time is seriously impaired. I would NEVER ask my fiance to drive somewhere to bring me something when he's that sleep deprived because I don't want him to get into an accident. You can't 100% not take care of your own basic needs. How is it going to help anything when her husband does come home if she's extremely sick or too exhausted to function? It's not like she was sleeping all day. He can survive for another 2 hours or so. I guarantee you if OP is like most people, as soon as she woke up she was planning on heading back to the hospital to see him and could've brought the comic books then. Like I said, you can't ignore and compromise your own health that much when your significant other is sick, because you won't be able to do anything for them if you're sick yourself.

It's not like OP didn't get ANY sleep during the 96 hours. All that the OP said was that she didn't get a good nights sleep for 96 hours. That means that she has gotten at least a little bit of sleep over 4 days. I don't know about you, but I've gone a lot longer than 4 days without a "good nights sleep," and I've still been able to drive a vehicle just fine. I honestly don't thin that the OP was in any serious danger if she were to drive. I can't deny that the husband was a little selfish in asking for such a favor. But still, the right thing would be to suck it up and get him his comic books.

I guess this is where we just have to agree to disagree. My whole high school experience was one long period of sleep deprivation. One day I blew right through a red light without even realizing it until halfway through the intersection. Luckily no one was around. A few weeks ago I got pulled over late at night because the cop thought I was driving drunk. Nope. Just sleep deprived. You may just be lucky that you can go a long time without quality sleep and still be able to drive just fine. It's like some people can have more beers than others and still be able to drive just fine.

I wonder how many of the people claiming the OP is selfish have actually been through this sort of thing themselves? It doesn't matter how much you love someone, your body still needs sleep, especially if you have to drive. Possibly her husband wasn't aware what the time was, it's easy to lose track in hospital. By all means take him in some comic books at 8.00am, but it would be stupid to risk her life (and those of other road users) for a few comics. Perhaps those who point out hospital can be boring ought to try sitting in Intensive Care 18 hours a day for a few days watching machines breathe for your loved one. You wouldn't be anywhere else, but believe me it isn't a barrel of laughs.

Yuggi - If you think loving the mother of my children to the point where I would do anything for her is "pussy whipped", then consider me pissy whipped. I call it love. Reynshine- see above. It has nothing to do with backbones. I hope you and your fiancé/husband (you say fiancé in your comment but husband in your profile...make up your mind!) develop this kind of bond.

yes, but do you wake up at 4am after not sleeping for 4 days? i highly doubt that.

she didn't say she didn't sleep for 4 days. she just said she didn't get good sleep for 4 days.
