OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
A,F
The word "still" tells us that Jamie's illness has already begun; she is either still suffering from it or is recovering. We see from the phrase "prevent a relapse of her symptoms" that the symptoms have abated; therefore, we can conclude that Jamie is getting over her illness. Look for words that describe that for the blank. Recuperating means "recovering from sickness," and has the same meaning in this sentence as convalescing. (A) and (F) are correct.
