What started as a headache and other symptoms turned into a life-threatening situation for Theodosia Sharp's daughter. The 10-year-old was diagnosed with MIS-C, a condition that inflames organs. Experts have seen children get MIS-C after having COVID.
HARNETT COUNTY, N.C. (WTVD) What initially started as a lingering headache quickly turned into a life-threatening situation for Theodosia Sharp s daughter, Kimariya.
During the first two weeks of February, 10-year-old Kimariya was being treated by a full medical staff at Duke Hospital. It was rough, especially when you hear that a ventilator is going down your child s throat, that s the scariest part of it all, Sharp said.
This situation was a far cry from what the young girl initially dealt with in mid-January. According to Sharp, she first noticed her daughter acting odd when she kept complaining about a headache.
