That Saturday, Bauer awoke to find her daughter unresponsive, at which point she rushed her to the hospital. After running several tests, she was diagnosed with ADEM and tested positive for COVID-19. The girl is now completely paralyzed and has been in the hospital since. There have been dozens of case reports since the pandemic started linking COVID-19 as the trigger for ADEM, Pitt said. Most children who get ADEM regain most function within four to six months.

She adds that “Avella was just learning chess well enough to be able to teach her little friends how to play.” Since arriving at the hospital, Avella has been unable to see because of the brain damage caused by ADEM. However, last week, Avella’s doctors said they believe that she still had some type of vision, although the extent is unknown.
