Covid19 has hit our family. This is the story of how Bella and her mother were exposed to the virus, the timeline of events from the first days of symptoms, testing, efforts to recover at home, which Bella did, and her mother’s experience in the hospital, and the support she received from the amazing health care workers who did all they could to save her life.
It serves as both a cautionary tale, and one that we hope will help people to take proper precautions to prevent the spread of this virus until more is understood. It is also a blueprint for anyone exposed to Covid19 and what you need to know if you, a child or a family member test positive.
