''I thought if I fell asleep, I wouldn't wake up.'

"I think the worst of it was I was so weak I couldn't walk. … I had no energy. I hadn't eaten in nine days. I was so dehydrated," she said.Shircel said she went to the emergency room twice, each time being admitted overnight before being sent home the next day.

"I had friends who just got back from Miami. I had friends who were literally in Florida at the time on their spring break," she said. Shircel stressed"the importance of quarantine and actually being quarantined and not just having your boyfriend over. That's not what it means to be in quarantine. … It's important to not be selfish and be greedy. Just be patient.""I definitely thought as a 22-year-old I was invincible," she said."I think that's the overwhelming opinion."

All thoughts and prayers ! wegonnabeatthis!

My cousin recently died from colon cancer. She was awake for nearly 72hrs b4 she was given anxiety meds because she got hostile. She slept peacefully only waking up twice then right back to sleep to never awake again. So I understand the fear of falling asleep when you’re ill.

Well I was never sleep I help around in room to clean up and watercolor and watch tv and rest. And also my mom told me “your need a rest ok”) I say okay mom. I’m guess some sleep and break. Sometimes I did. And I take a my medicine.

Awww that's sad sweetie.. You need rest cuz that's how body heals itself when ur sleeping.. I will pray for you to b able to rest without fear...

Lol!!! The fear mongering is unreal!!
