Healthy way of life

It is good when we are healthy. But sometimes we have a headache, cough, or temperature. So it is time to cure our illness. We have to call for a doctor but as for me I don’t like him. My mother gives me some medicine. It is not tasty but I must take it. I mustn’t to go out or walk with my friends. I have to stay in bed, drink warm tea, and gargle to my throat.

I think people must eat healthy food, spend time in the open air and take care of our health. You have to remember, “Prevention is better than treatment. “

Illness

Last year I visited Great Britain on holidays. It was my dream to visit this country. I went to see many places of interest, they were great. But my holidays were not as good as I wanted.

During my stay in London I felt ill. I was on excursion around London one day. When I returned home in the evening I was not good and I felt hot. I took my temperature, it was high – 38.2. I had a horrible headache and I really couldn’t stand on my feet. I drank some warm tea and went to bed but I couldn’t sleep all the night. In the morning I was not better, all my body ached, my throat was sore and I had a cough. I was afraid that it could be more serious. So I had to visit doctor. I told him my story. I asked him to examine me and tell what I had to do. I didn’t want to stay in bed for a long time. My holidays were finishing and I wanted to see many interesting places in that country. I asked him to give me a prescription. I promised to take all the medicine he would recommend. And then I asked him to explain me where the nearest chemist’s was situated, what the price of the medicine was. The doctor examined me and said that it was just flu. He gave me a prescription for my treatment. I thanked him for his help.

In the afternoon my friend came to see me and I asked him to get some pills for me. I filled all the doctor’s recommendations and in some days I was almost well.
