She was in a coma and had been since she was admitted. It took three weeks before she woke. She was unable to speak and had trouble moving. She knew who her family were, but anything strange distressed her.
Today, five months later, she's still not at university. She was learning to be a teacher. She can't follow her dream because of the disease. She is better now than she was in October but she still has problems communicating.
It's an awful disease. It was airborne at University (someone else was diagnosed).
