Physically or emotionally.

Thanks for your honesty. This really puts life into perspective...don't sweat the small stuff. I think for most people it seems emotional pain way surpasses anything physical.

I got a phone call from the kindergarten to come the hospital. My daughter was having difficulty breathing. I stopped off at home on the way there to pick up meducal crads, a spare nappy/diaper. When I arrived, the doctor in charge of emergency took me into a room and then asked the other people present to leave the room. I've seen this on the television, I know what is going to happen. My 8 month old had died of cot death / sids quietly during her afternoon nap. But it was only when saw her, picked her up, and felt her limp little body in my arms.

Physically--that one is easy. I would say being in labor with my son for 12 hours while on pitocin with no epidural. I felt like I was dying. And I was having contractions every 2 minutes in the 90's (which if you don't know, that means very hard and painful contractions). There was just no relief until they decided to do a c-section and they got a spinal block in me to do the surgery.
Emotionally--this one is a little harder to decide. I would have to say it was when I went to watch my true love graduate from basic training. The last day we had together he had to be back on base by 6pm and was leaving for Virginia the next morning. We got to the base a little early and hung out there for a while, but when it was time for him to report that he was back, he walked me out to the car and gave me a kiss. He knew I was about to cry so he looked me in the eyes and said that I would see him again soon. Then he turned and walked away. That is when I started crying my eyes out. To watch him walk away knowing I couldn't do or say anything and knowing that he could NOT turn back. Although I am sure this emotional pain will seem small as he is about to have to leave to go to Iraq in a month or two. When that happens I am sure the year and half to follow will be the scariest thing and hurt the worst.

The worst emotional pain I have ever experienced was having to tell my wife I had cheated on her and then deal with the aftermath. Torture!
The worst physical pain I have ever experienced was dislocating my right shoulder. Between the time it dislocated and the time a nurse re-set it, I was in utter agony.
I hope you're not asking which of the two was worst, because I'd be hard-pressed to choose.

physically, childbirth. emotionally, i recently found out that my hubby had at least a 4 month emotional affair with another women. physical pain passes or there is medication. emotional sometimes is forever. i now have to live with the fact that everything i knew as truth in the last 4 months was a lie. our marriage will never be the same.

Physically - female troubles that required emergency surgery
Emotionally - I got "busted", and the uncertainty I had getting from Point A to Point B in a separation/divorce, and the guilt I had putting our son thru a divorce.

Losing my first baby due to a miscarriage. The WORST thing that has ever happened to me, and one that I still think about and hurt about daily. Losing my angel so soon, was like tearing my heart and soul into pieces. They say you don't know love until you have a child, well I can only imagine how much more I can love that baby, because just knowing it was inside me growing, made me fall head over heals.

Physically= when I got a serious steam burn on the back of my neck fighting a house fire.
Emotionally=when my baby girl Rachel died at the age of four days old.
I have no idea what this has to do with marriage and divorce, but you my day just went to hell...LOL

The worst pain I've ever felt is the pain of losing someone I loved. I was unable to work or sleep. I thought my heart was going to burst from the pain.

Emotionally: Ok so I swear I have bad luck...right after my husband and i set our wedding date my uncle died! Then a day before my wedding my grandpa died...he was the best...it hurt so bad b/c that day in the hospital my grandma gave me a huge hug and said she was sooo sorry...She had Nothing to be sorry for...i should have been saying it to her b/c her she was, 6 months earlier she had found out she had lung cancer and brain cancer and she was now alone w/out her spouse of 58yrs! She came to my wedding the next day (everyone told me to go thru w/ it) She looked so happy, but you could def. tell she was sad! Then 7months later I found out i was pregnant and a month after that my grandma died! I believe she mostly died of a broken heart, medical people will say it was the cancer! This all occured w/in a yr and a half of eachother! I didnt want to have my son for fear of who would die next! But he brought me such to my life! To this day i know my grandmother is my sons guardian angel! But to have both my grandparents die in significant points of my life was very painful for me!
