Today, I got an email from a professor saying he was going to fail me for missing the alloted absences, which is school policy. I pointed out I was in the hospital for two weeks with a life threatening illness and that he even came to visit me. He told me "rules are rules." FML

I've had similar issues (I miss a lot of class due to illness as well). Go to the dean of students or if your school has a Student Disability Center or something. Rules may be rules but you cannot penalize a student for something that's beyond their control, it's illegal.

you fucking cunt. OP had a FATAL ILLNESS. that means THEY COULD HAVE DIED. I'm guessing you couldn't figure that out since you adress homework as a plural. it's not much to ask to be excused from class if you're DYING. how bout you crawl out of your hole and spend some time around other people, snatch.

Wow what a sarcastic asshole. Get your head out of your ass, teachers don't always have to be unfair my professor always tells me that the only excuse we have for missing class is if we are dying and in this case op had a fatal illness so technically this excuse is reasonable in my opinion she or he should be able to atleast make up the work they missed.

I call fake. Maybe my school is just way more lenient than the OP's, but our classes only have an allotted number of unexcused absences. As long as we can produce a doctor's note or something the absence doesn't count against us.
