How to tell if your parakeet is stressed and how can i prevent it from happening or how can i help the bird?

Hi, I bought a parakeet about 6 days ago and it seemed fine, would always jump around and climb around the cage. It seemed like it was normal and energetic but i didn’t think anything of this. So on the 4th day i went to a theme park for 2 days with my girlfriend and the vet assistant i left my bird with called and said it was laying on the bottom of the cage. then she called the pet store and asked to see if there was anything she could do but it suddenly died in her hands. I guess that it had diarrhea the day it died but before that it didn’t. Now the lady at the pet store told me that it could have been stressed an its immune system was low. Is this true? and how can I prevent this for my new one i got? also what are the signs of this?

My parakeet has been sneezing a lot. What should I do to prevent this illness?

Why is my parakeet sneezing and what made her sneeze?

PLEASE HELP ME.

Thank you so much!
