Here is what she stated;
“I hardly fall ill and so when I left the set and started having chills the next day or so, I knew something wasn’t right.
I thought it might be stress.
This was on Monday, August 3. I waited till Tuesday and it got worse.
I was shaking uncontrollably and my temperature was going through the roof.”
“My spirit told me immediately, this is not malaria or fever.
I have been extremely careful and paranoid about this COVID-19 stuff.
So I told hubby I needed to be tested immediately. I have a son that has Asthma!”
“They came to test me on Wednesday and my result came out on Thursday evening … Positive.
My world crashed. I felt crazy and empty.”
