Fever
Fever is about the 1793 epidemic and a young girl named Matilda who endured the Yellow Fever epidemic, Yellow Fever is a tropical viral disease affecting the liver and kidneys, causing fever and jaundice and often fatal. It is transmitted by mosquitoes. During the time Matilda slowly loses everyone she loves during the epidemic she starts living above a coffee house and is forced to live on her own for a bit at nearly 14 years olds enduring grave robbers, muggers and the physical disease itself. I’d like to connect this with my summer of being home alone for a bit as my family was out camping and I had a fever of around 101. Not a fun time for me or Matilda, but in the end we both got through it and were reunited with our families
