Service Dog Owner Intentionally Triggers Friend’s Nut Allergy After They Ban Dogs From Their Home
It was incredible how a Reddit OP's dislike of dogs almost cost them their life. It all started when OP stopped hosting group events in their house after their friend, Sarah, got a service animal for their seizures.
OP and their friends take turns hosting parties in their houses. Coincidentally, after Sarah got her service dog, it was OP's turn to host a potluck.
OP booked a camping area where they could all have fun, and their friend could bring her service dog. OP wouldn't have felt right, they said, if they hosted the party at their house but barred their friend from attending because of her indispensable service dog.
OP has successfully hosted parties exclusively outside of their house since then. Their group noticed the change when Jacob, one of their friends, suggested they do a game night at OP's house.
OP couldn't think of a way to power a gaming console outdoors, so they proposed to go to a theater and watch a movie instead. Confused, Jacob asked OP why they stopped doing game nights at their house.
OP explained they didn't want animals in their house, especially one that sheds. Their friends accepted the explanation, but Sarah was unsatisfied with OP's response.
She asked a series of questions: was she banned from OP's house? Was OP ableist? OP told Sarah they would rather host events outside of their house if she and her service dog were attending.
Since they plan these events in advance, OP specifically chose activities that can be done outdoors so they wouldn't have to worry about having a dog in their home.
Waka_Waka_Ey_EySarah refused to let it go and called OP ableist. The tense back and forth made the group uncomfortable.
Waka_Waka_Ey_EyNo plans were made, and the call ended abruptly. Unfortunately, that was not the end of the story.
Waka_Waka_Ey_EyThree days after their original post, OP shared a hopeful update. Although Sarah made passive-aggressive comments, she and OP reached an understanding after they apologized.
Waka_Waka_Ey_EyThings took a drastic turn a day after OP's 1st update. Sarah showed up at OP's house unannounced with her service dog and her mom's emotional support dog in tow.
Waka_Waka_Ey_EySarah said she was dropping off cookies she baked for OP and needed to find the keychain their friend left behind. She tried to enter OP's house with her dogs, but OP stopped them. She dropped her dogs' leashes and entered OP's house.
Waka_Waka_Ey_EyOP managed to kick them out after the dog jumped up on them and broke a vase their late mom gifted them. That night, OP ate the cookies Sarah left and immediately began to swell up. OP found their EpiPen and went to the hospital.

OP thought Sarah had forgotten about their nut allergy and texted her about what had happened. Sarah was apologetic but rehashed their conversation about dogs. Eventually, Sarah admitted to deliberately putting nuts in the cookies she baked for OP.

OP reeled at the revelation. Sarah, whom she has been friends with since middle school, endangered her life for revenge. OP blocked Sarah and planned to file a legal complaint against her.

Sarah tried to kill OP. What she did was inexcusable.

OP said the rest of the group also cut ties with Sarah after what she did.

OP was determined to get justice for what happened to them.

In another update, OP said they had a restraining order against Sarah. They planned to renew it each time it expired.
They were disheartened that the authorities hadn't made any progress with their investigation but all OP could do was wait. "Well, that escalated quickly," is an understatement.
