Today, I fractured my tibia, fibula, and tore a tendon in my ankle. How? You might ask. By stepping in a hole at soccer practice. Now I’ll be out for the entire season with months of rehab. FML

Today, after a month and a half of recovering from a sprained ankle, I was back in the gym training. After a grueling, sweaty session on the treadmill, I tripped walking down the stairs which sprained my other ankle. Back to round one. FML

Today, I injured my knee at a Zumba class, a class I joined to lose weight so my knees wouldn't hurt so much. Now I can't even go for a leisurely walk. FML

Heavy load

Today, I was getting ready for work. When I stepped back, my ankle rolled and my fat ass landed on it with my foot sideways under me. Now I’m in a boot for 6 weeks and have 6 weeks of physical therapy ahead of me. FML

I had the same thing happen to me, OP! Next time, take it very slow and really listen to your body. Have a safe and successful recovery!

I am currently recovering from an ACL reconstruction I had on Monday. So I can empathise with the pain. Hope you are treated quickly and it gets better soon. FYL.

My boyfriend tore his rotator cuff and I'm so afraid of this happening while he's at physical therapy.

I'm so sorry OP. That truly sucks. I would know, seeing as I tore my ACL last summer in July. Got surgery in September, and I'm still struggling with physical therapy and trying to bend my leg fully. Good luck on the long journey ahead.

Today, I have an HR meeting to discuss my team's performance. This is the same HR that refuses to hire more people because my department is full. The same HR that complains when tasks are completed late due to the team being overworked, yet refuses to take any suggestions. How do you give feedback to people like this? FML

Today, I was babysitting this 12 year old. We were watching a movie, and he was being an angel just laying with his head in my lap. He fell asleep so I closed my eyes and had a little nap. When I woke up he had taken my shirt off and was feeling up my boobs. FML
