What it would be like to live with corona

I wake up and I can barely breath. Im 20 and married though no one is next to me or near me. My throat still scratching and throbbing. Im sweating in heat and I have what feels like a migraine. My door opens and one of the doctors comes in with a mask, gloves and what looks like to be a hazmat suit and she hands me a tray with food. I attempt to start eating though I'm coughing up on my food and I cant even swallow it. I give up on trying to eat and I continue to the shower. I can still barely breath and I have congestion in my nose. I feel completely drained. I get unclothed and ready for my shower.

Im hot though confused whether to put the water temperature on warm or cool. When I get out of the shower I continue to get dressed. Im still hot and can barely breath. Then they let us out of our rooms for a bit to get some exercise though we still aren't allowed to go near anyone. When I exit my room everyone looks at me like I'm some sort of creature I wish I could explain to them that its just a flu but its really not. It's way way way worse than that. All thats playing on my mind is my husband and 2 kids that are left at home 1'000 kilometres away from me. Every-night I pray to god that I could just see my kids. I only get to call them once a day.

Fifteen days later and I haven't gotten any better. Im 20 young married and so much of my life ahead of me.

Don't take life for granted...
