She is sick. She has been feeling unwell for a few days. The symptoms started with a persistent cough and a sore throat. She decided to rest at home and take some over-the-counter medications to alleviate her discomfort. However, as the days passed, her condition did not improve. She consulted a doctor who prescribed some antibiotics and advised her to continue resting and hydrating properly. She is now following the doctor's advice and hoping for a quick recovery.
