She kept up her walks even though her body ached and was dealing with cold sweats in the cold days. I was by her side on her longer walks in the park (30 minutes). Her fever never exceeded 102, but we knew once she had dry coughing fits and wheezing it was time to go to the hospital as directed by her doctor. Keep moving around the house...even doing daily chores helps you stay active. Stay calm and do try to limit the news. Find peace in your surroundings, and talk to loved ones to stay positive.
