COVID Cases: A Personal Journey




I never thought I'd get COVID. I was always careful, always masked, and always sanitized my hands. But then, I got a call from my friend. He had tested positive, and we had been together the day before.
Panic set in. I immediately got tested, and sure enough, I was positive too. I was in disbelief. How could I have gotten COVID? I had been so careful!
I spent the next few days in isolation, quarantined in my room. I was sick, but not too sick. I had a fever, a cough, and a headache. But I was determined to get better.
I drank plenty of fluids, ate healthy foods, and rested. I also took some over-the-counter medications to help with my symptoms.
Slowly but surely, I started to feel better. My fever broke, my cough subsided, and my headache went away. I was finally on the mend.
After 10 days, I was finally able to leave isolation. I was so happy to be out of my room and back to my normal life.
I'm so grateful that I didn't get too sick from COVID. I know that I was lucky. Not everyone is as fortunate.
If you haven't gotten COVID yet, please be careful. Take precautions to protect yourself and others. And if you do get COVID, don't panic. Rest, drink plenty of fluids, and eat healthy foods. You will get through it.
I'm sharing my story because I want to help others who are going through the same thing. I want you to know that you're not alone. And I want you to know that there is hope. You will get better.
Here are some tips for coping with COVID:
  • Stay home and isolate yourself from others.
  • Drink plenty of fluids.
  • Eat healthy foods.
  • Rest.
  • Take over-the-counter medications to help with your symptoms.
