'AITA for going to work while my wife was having her appendix out?' Wife accuses husband of abandoning her, internet reacts

People are really split on this one, folks. Some people are defending the husband for insisting that his wife go seek medical attention and are claiming that in doing so, he saved her life and thus deserves more credit. Other defenders believe that full abandonment is definitely an extreme accusation since his parents and his mother-in-law were all at the hospital taking care of her.

 

That being said, while we acknowledge that this was a tough situation and that the toxic workplace is to blame for instilling a sense of guilt for taking necessary time off, we will ultimately go with YTA on this one. Clearly, the Redditor's wife has anxiety about her condition and about going to the hospital. If she wanted his support, that was well within her right. Furthermore, no surgery is routine. Minimizing that fact is convenient for the sake of OP's argument. Keep scrolling below to see what others had to say.
