'My lungs felt like they were filling with quicksand then all five of my family were struck with Covid-19 hell'

TWO weeks ago, when my lungs started feeling they were filling with quicksand, I knew what I thought was a ‘fluey’ head cold was far worse.

Three of us had terrible piercing headaches. Another two, drenching night sweats. We also had waves of nausea that didn’t result in actual sickness, to this day!When it began and for the first couple days we kept palming it off as a ‘bad cold’. This nasty thing was no different. However, I didn’t want to alarm my family with my fears so I worked on meditative and calming techniques to ease my anxieties.

She brought home her stethoscope and medical thermometer, checked all of us and said she’d closely monitor us especially if our temperatures increased.She hadn’t yet fallen ill apart from feeling “tired”.
