In a sense:
It was not until the 1980s that the latent liver form of the parasite was observed. The discovery of this latent form of the parasite finally explained why people could appear to be cured of malaria but still relapse years after the parasite had disappeared from their bloodstreams.

Yes, the malaria virus does remain in the blood even if you have been cured. I donate blood regularly and the blood bank prohibits people who had malaria from donating. For example, a Vietnam War veteran was told he could not donate blood since he had malaria over 30 years ago. This means even if you are cured of malaria, you can infect others with donated blood.

Malaria is caused by a parasite it is not a virus. As I understand once you have the disease it is lifelong.

Virus is formed of atoms, it is not a thing which has energy in itself. It is like a poisonous substance. Your immune system will not accept anything different, out of habit, you will need to live in a creative way to avoid wasting yourself. You are not a thing affected by disease, the house which is physical will be broken with time.
I think that game is interesting, you should make every activity a game that you can do anything wherein , rather than make them a duty that you need to complete with succeed.

People who I have known who have malaria, have relapses throughout their lives when they get rundown.

I believe it does, it just lays dorment and can flare up time to time, needing regular medications to keep it at bay. My pop had it from WW2
