The actress described her 21 days in isolation as "most challenging" and added, "As much as I count my blessings that my battle with this disease has been much easier but at the same time I must admit that these last 21 days in isolation have been the most challenging for me to deal with."
In her statement Ms D'Souza wrote about "the only way to fight this monster" and added, "No amount of FaceTime and digital immersion can kill the evil of loneliness. I am happy to be back with my family and loved ones. Surround yourselves with love... That's true strength and it's all one needs. Test early, eat healthy, stay fit - the only way to fight this monster."
