Today, I visited my doctor upon coming home from University. I found out that I'm severely allergic to our pet bunny, which has resulted in a rash taking over my body. She suggested that we get rid of the bunny. I told my mom. She told me to come home less often. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mother refused to buy a cat because my sister is allergic to them. She bought a rabbit instead. I'm allergic to rabbits. FML
Today, I went to the allergist. I found out that I am allergic to dogs, cats, wool, fleece, and pet dander. I'm currently planning to go to school to become a veterinarian. FML
Today, I told my mom I'm severely allergic to my cat and that the doctor told me it would be best to get rid of the cat. Somewhat jokingly, I told her it was either me or the cat. She chose the cat. She was serious too. FML
Today, I was loving on a dog at work. I noticed her fur was coarse and short and I'd never felt anything like it before. I broke out in hives all over my face. This happens whenever I'm around any cats, guinea pigs, or rabbits and now some dogs apparently. I'm in school to be a vet tech. FML
Today, I'm tired, on Benadryl, temporarily moved into my mom’s house because my roommate chose to get an ESP dog who sheds, even though I told them I'm anaphylactic crazy allergic. They won’t get rid of the dog and I can’t afford to break the lease. I'm also flunking all my classes. FML
Today, after 3 years of studying to be a veterinarian, I found out I may not be able to continue. It's not because I'm failing my classes, but because my body has developed an allergy to cats. FML
Today, I went to the doctor to find out why I've been feeling so sick the past several weeks. Turns out, I'm severely allergic to the cat of my girlfriend of two years. I told her "It's me or the cat." She chose the cat. FML
Today, a lady talking about the Bible came to my house. She looked at me and said I wouldn't need to cut myself if I had God in my life. Mom heard and did a thorough investigation of my body for scars. I had to bathe my rabbit last night, and he scratched me. They were from him. FML
Today, my mother-in-law told my husband that I cannot stay in her house unless I can bring proof from a doctor that my allergy to cats is not contagious. FML
Today, I went to the doctor for allergy testing. Apparently, one of my worst allergies is cats. I'm a "crazy cat lady" who loves anything cat-related and has 3 cats. Allergy shots, here I come. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Suggest to get rid of your mother

Are you done with Uni or just visiting? Because it'd be a bit rash (hehe punny) to get rid of the bunny when you'll be leaving again! You could just keep it out of the way when you visit.

I'd choose the rabbit over the kid. If OP is allergic to the rabbit all she has to do is take allergy medication and ask her mom to clean up the place a bit before she stops by. OP doesn't live at the house and it's her mother's rabbit. I think OP is a selfish brat for assuming that her mom would just get rid of her bunny because OP is too lazy to take some damn medicine.

Medicine doesn't always work.

Antihistamines for the win! I know they don't make you completely better but they help. I live with two people who are allergic to animals, and they both work with them and have pets, they just have to take precautions. And kudos to the mum, hundreds of thousands of animals are in shelters because people don't plan ahead or think they can simply abandon them when they can no longer be bothered. OP isn't going to be homeless, the rabbit however will be. If OP is old enough to be at Uni the mum certainly shouldn't have to abandon her pet for a child that is perfectly capable of looking after themselves.

You can't just "get rid of" a member of the family. What if your mom was allergic to you, and had a rash similar to yours due to it? She'd probably want to "get rid of" you, eh?

legit reason to not go home ever... lucky! when i got allergic. my mom just kept the bunny in the basement and made me stay home still... =S

That really sucks for you. Your mom probably has sentimental attachment to her bunny, though. It's hard to let go of pets. Maybe you can keep it in one room that you don't enter?
