The others followed the sibling's suit.

Without pressing the panic button, and raising alarm, we devised a regimen that included doing light exercise, yoga, eating hot healthy food, fruits, taking medicines on time and maintaining mental balance.

Ginger tea after having hot breakfast, non-veg food during lunch, sprouts as snacks in the evening and rotis with leaf vegetables for dinner, along with following doctor's instructions helped them recover fast.
