Today, while at a hospital, a prayer group circled me and started praying that God and the good doctors and nurses would heal me from the disease that disfigured my face. I was there to visit my sick grandmother. FML

Today, I took my grandma to the hospital to visit her estranged husband who she hasn't seen in years. After a thoroughly disasterous visit, we're waiting in the carpark and my gran strokes my face and tells me I have a lot of facial hair. I thought she was going to thank me. And I'm a girl. FML

Today, I saw an old friend while out and about. Since I don't leave the house very often, my friend was surprised to see me in person. He jokingly asked if someone was dying, and I cried in response. I was in fact going to the hospital to say goodbye to my grandma. FML

Today, my grandma miraculously survived a bout with pneumonia. She keeps saying, 'The Lord spoke to her' while she was comatose. While comatose, she had to be physically restrained because she would unconsciously mess with the medical equipment, and when she woke up, she was completely delirious. Yeah, no. FML

Today, I went to see my ill granddad in hospital. I saw lots of doctors around his bed, and they pronounced him dead, so I ran out crying. A little later, I found out that my granddad had been moved, and it was a different man in his bed. FML

Today, a number of people came to visit me in the hospital, including my grandparents. They called me "weak" and "a cowardly millennial" for going to the ER instead of sucking it up, and blamed me for rising healthcare costs. I had a compound fracture. FML

Today, after months of taking care of my grandma after a surgery, the doctors gave her a clean bill of health and I finally got to sleep in my own bed. She passed away while I was at home. FML

Today, I had to get my picture taken for a volunteer badge at the hospital. My sister came home and told my parents that she'd had a horrible day at work. They showed her my picture to cheer her up. FML

Today, I had to go to the hospital. While I was there, my mom started hitting on a doctor. Later I saw them making out in the room next to me. FML

Today, one of my friends made it to school. He has been sick recently, missing days out of the week. When I saw him, I greeted him with, "Were you dying yesterday?" Apparently he wasn't, but his grandmother really did. FML

Today, I shaved my head because I heard that one of my good friends got cancer. I went to visit her in the hospital. She's not bald. FML

I'd already said FYL by the time I read "... a prayer group circled me,".

You should have started contorting your body and screaming like a demon was being exorcised from you.

If they ask for your name and number give them this number 876-9116(it'll dial it straight to 911)

To bad when I googled the number it came up with stuff like: A liquor store, An organization, A persons house number, Something in Alabama.. But no cops..

And even if it would dial straight to 911; don't you think they would've got something better to do with their time than to deal with these prank-calls? Like, you know, saving lives?

I bet that's really your number. Do you need Jesus?

Why would you waste 911's time just to get back at some inconsiderate religious people?

Start shaking hands with each member, and periodically scratch your face. Half way through say "I hope your prayers are heard and I am finally rid of this highly contageous disease".

claim to be a demon and threaten to punish them!

Demons don't punish them. They possess them to make them do evil things. A.K.A. their excuse for doing wrong things. I'm just waiting for that FML saying a boyfriend/girlfriend cheated and claimed a demon made them do it.

Should have prayed right back and said for them to get a job.

Or simply from them to be delivered from ignorance, arrogance, and rudeness. And for OP to be delivered from theirs.

Why would they pray for you loudly and obviously without asking you first?

Did they seriously just assume that you had a disfigured face? Are you sure that someone at the hospital didn't tell them that you had a condition just to screw with you?

chosha_fml 26

Maybe OP does have a disfigured face, but wasn't at the hospital for that reason and it isn't something that can be cured. The point is that OP doesn't deserve to be made to feel ugly just because some assholes are so busy doing 'God's work' that they show no tact or consideration.
