7News cameras captured Sophia Villarraga moments after she was given the OK to leave Nicklaus Children’s Hospital in Southwest Miami-Dade, Saturday night.

Her mother, Pilar Villarraga, spoke to 7News about her daughter’s hospital stay earlier this weekend.

“Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday were the worst days of my life,” she said.

At first, Pilar said, Sophia’s symptoms were mild, but inflammation from a consistent cough got worse, and she was taken to the emergency room.

She started couging blood, she got pneumonia,” she said, “and then all of her blood tests came back really crazy, so they said she needed to start treatment right away.”.

“Well, we were waiting for her to get the vaccine, because he’s 11, she’s turning 12 next week,” said Pilar, “so, I think that with the vaccine, she wouldn’t be this bad, you know?”.

Hopefully, Pilar said, those days are now behind them.

As for Sophia, she said she’s thankful to be healthy.
