    One day, while arranging her feather collection, Lily started sneezing uncontrollably. She wondered if it was a cold or something else.

    Lily's mother took her to Dr. Brown. After a series of tests, he revealed that Lily was allergic to feathers. Lily was shocked and disappointed.

    Dr. Brown advised Lily to avoid feathers for a while. Lily nodded, but the thought of parting with her feather collection saddened her.

    A few days later, Lily's best friend Emily invited her to a bird-themed birthday party. Lily was torn between her love for birds and her new-found allergy.

    Back home, Lily started researching about feather allergies. She found out that she could use hypoallergenic masks to prevent sneezing.
