Please help me with this. Thanks.

She got the bad news about her disease October last year. The doctors believed that her prognosis was mainly good. And she was feeling okay, so she was very optimistic about her chances, but then she started to get worse, and suddenly she could barely speak anymore.

I have a few questions to this:

- Is it OK to say "was feeling okay" or do you prefer "felt okay"?

- Is it OK to go from "she was feeling okay" to "but then she started to get worse"?

  • Fine.
