Mahhi Vij and Jay Bhanushali's four years old daughter Tara Bhanushali recently recovered from Influenza A. The actress penned a long emotional note on Instagram. Mahhi revealed Tara developed a high fever during Independence Day week. Her fever went up to 104 degrees. After consulting a doctor, Tara was rushed to a hospital to receive proper medical attention.
Sharing the ordeal, Mahhi wrote on Instagram, "Fevers worry parents, they scare them sometimes. I understand why, because when Tara got high fever on this Thursday night, it was like a nightmare to all of us. Tara went to school on Thursday after a long break from Independence Day week. Most of the time, it isn't serious. Fevers are very common. But this time it got really serious for our Tara."

She further added, "We tried giving her medicines after discussing it with the doctors, but even after giving her IBUGESIC PLUS, her fever continued to be 104 and above. It became really stressful for us. We gave her cold dips of water, sponging at night, still she was shivering and the temperature was getting worse. I spoke to her doctor at 1 in the midnight and he said there's nothing to worry as all the kids are catching up with viral these days and they are falling sick. But as a mother, I had to worry, so it was a sleepless night for us. Friday morning, I had to immediately rush to the hospital on a Saturday afternoon and the doctors ran some tests on her and she was infected with INFLUENZA A FLU. It is a very contagious viral infection of the respiratory system. It causes a high fever, body aches, a cough, and other symptoms. Most children are ill with the flu for less than a week. But some children have a more serious illness and may need to be treated in the hospital. So it was best for us to get her admitted."
The doting mother ended her note saying, "Please ensure your child has plenty of bed rest, encourage them to drink lots of fluids. Don't forget to take your flu shots, especially the elders. Avoid sending kids to school even if they have a running nose. This Flu shouldn't be taken lightly and please start taking good care of kids if their immunity is weak. Take care of yourself and the other people in your family. If you haven't already, speak to your doctor about getting the flu vaccine for you and other family members."
Tara is reportedly home now and is recovering under her parental care.
