Today, my girlfriend dumped me because I didn't attend her dog's funeral, and was therefore an insensitive bastard. I couldn't attend because my mum has cancer and I was driving her to a hospital appointment. FML

I'm sorry OP :( That's absolutely terrible. Forget about her. The FML should be that your mother has cancer, not that your girlfriend is a bitch.

Do you really want to be with someone as rediculous as that?

It's always good to have proper spelling. I could text someone to saying, '' I'm all bear for you baby, want to come over?'' That person would think that i'm all hairy for them or something... OP, you really want a life like this with someone?

you insensitive bastard. she's angry because the dog was her form of entertainment before your 3 inter came into her life

that sucks 4 ur mum but couldnt some1 else have taken her and then u go 2 the funeral and meet up at the hospital later... comeon set ur priorities dude its called orginization

This is true... it may sound insensitive but your mom is still alive, albeit sick. As someone with a sick family member and as someone with beloved family pets, go to dogs funeral and have someone else drive Mom to the doctor. If your mom had just cut off her arm or some other emergency, I can understand, but cancer is not really something an ER can do anything about. Even said sick family member would likely understand, being an animal lover herself, at least in my family.

It's not enough for you to get someone to drive your mom to the hospital, it shows your mom you care about her by taking time out of your life to drive her to the hospital. If you go to a dog's funeral, then it shows the person that a dog's life is more important to you. A sick person may understand, but it shows you don't care about them anymore.

Are you saying, #103, that the OP's primary role was to drive his mum to the hospital? She could get a cab for that! I have had far more exposure to cancer in my family that I would wish on anyone and I can say with considerable certainty that having someone along to help you deal with the barrage of information that is received and required, deal with the positives and comfort you in the negatives is just as important as actually attending. It's hardly worth going if you are so much in shock from what you are being told that you can't remember a damn thing after. The dog is dead. There is nothing that can be done for it now. Being there to help your mother make the right decision on her cancer treatment could save her life, or support her in deciding whether or not to undergo devastating treatment in the hope of making a difference. If you ever have to decide whether to turn away treatment and just take as many good days as you can, I hope very much that you have someone there to support you. Imagine that you had to make the decision to die on your own while your son was off burying a dog. There is simply no contest.

yes thank you!! I'm sure she has appointments all the time so she can't expect him to take her to every single one. he has his own life that he can't neglect by devoting all his time with her. dies she have no other family? or friends? could she not reschedule? if it were mynk9m she would be completely understanding especially since the mom wasn't dying
