Actress Monica Dogra Reveals Her Mom Contacted Covid-19, Shares Her Survival Story: Recovery From Corona Can Be Dicey

The coronavirus pandemic brought the world to its knees and the threat of any of us contacting the COVID-19 disease is very real no matter where we live especially if we are not cautious. Khatron Ke Khiladi 8 contestant Monica Dogra recently took to her Instagram handle to share her mom’s survival story, who had contacted the deadly disease in the U.S.

The actress and singer flew down to America to be with her mom who in a video with her daughter warned everyone, “First thing I would say, please don't take it lightly, always be watchful for the symptoms. This thing could be life-threatening.” 

Monica revealed that her mom contacted the coronavirus in February when there wasn’t sufficient testing being done and she was told she had the flu. Her symptoms returned by May 21 and she was put into one of the quarantine centers. The actress said her mom summed up the experience as “going to death’s door and returning”.

The actress also took the time to write her mom’s condition when she returned home from the hospital. “My mom’s COVID-19 survival story. We should add that at the end, she was taken off oxygen, her fever came down, and she was sent home from the hospital after ten days. She says it took about a month to get her strength back. She couldn’t walk, go up the steps at her house, take a shower, make food on her own once she went home. She had physical therapists coming home and nurses home for 3 weeks. So depending on a persons access and privileges, recovery from Corona can be dicey. So stay home if you can! And remember that this is super real.... love to you all."

Well, just hearing it is scary enough and Monica Dogra’s mother’s story really sends out a warning for those taking this lightly still.
