Reading: Health
"Stay healthy!"
But sometimes it catches one just yet ...
clock wakes up at five in the morning Manfred suddenly. He has a fever, his head hurts, he coughs, runny nose - he can hardly breathe: Manfred has a cold.
Manfred stands with difficulty and goes to the bathroom. There, his medicine cabinet. Manfred is looking for a flu remedy, but he finds none. "Not even aspirin," he thinks and sneezes thrice.
He goes into the kitchen and boils water for tea. He can barely stand, his head hurts so much. His arms and legs are heavy. Manfred looks at the clock: half past five. At seven, he can call the company, then is someone there. Because you can not work today, Manfred. "As long sleep 'I was a little bit," Manfred thinks. A few minutes later, the tea is ready. Manfred goes into the bedroom and takes the teacup.
awake at half past seven Manfred again. He calls the company: "I'm sick, I have the flu." "Then stay times at home and be healthy again," says his boss. "You should go right to the doctor!"
Manfred calls to Dr. Meyer, that is his family doctor. The receptionist is Manfred an appointment over, "Come at nine! And do not forget your insurance card, "To
eight fifty enters Manfred practice. The receptionist, a young woman named Erika greets him and asks: "Your health insurance is ...?" Manfred shows before the insurance card. His neck is doing now also hurt, he can hardly speak. It is painful to swallow. The receptionist handles the paperwork and finally says: "Ten € I get even"
"Oh yes," Manfred mutters. "The consultation fee." The receptionist nodded. "A new quarter - I can not help. Now take your place in the waiting room! It will take a few minutes ... "
Manfred goes into the waiting room. Only an old lady sitting there and reads a magazine. "Good morning," Manfred greets hoarse and sits on a chair. The lady is not responding. Manfred has to cough. "Put me just not on!" Said the lady, and looks at him sullenly. "Let me alone," Manfred thinks, but says nothing - he does not want to be rude ...
Twenty minutes later he calls the receptionist: "Mr. Dorsten in room two, please" Manfred gets up and goes into the treatment room.
Dr. Manfred Meyer welcomes friendly and examined him. "Well," he says finally, "a severe flu infection. I will prescribe something dagegen. Bleiben Sie bitte den Rest der Woche im Bett!“ Manfred nickt: „Dann brauche ich aber ein Attest für meinen Arbeitgeber.“ „Ich schreibe Sie bis Montag krank“, antwortet der Arzt und füllt zwei Formulare aus. „Hier ist das Attest“, sagt er und gibt Manfred einen Zettel, „und hier das Rezept.“ Doktor Meyer reicht Manfred einen zweiten Zettel. „Gehen Sie gleich in die Apotheke. Und dann ab ins Bett!“
Der Heimweg ist anstrengend. Manfred muss einen kleinen Umweg gehen; die nächste Apotheke liegt fünfzehn Minuten zu Fuß entfernt. Manfred geht hinein und gibt sein Rezept ab. Er bekommt Tabletten gegen Grippe.
Endlich liegt Manfred back at home in bed. He takes out the pills and read the package insert: "Two tablets three times a day," he grunts.
The phone rings. His mother's turn. "Mother," says Manfred and sniffles, "please call me later at this!" (Manfred wants is sleep.) "Are you all not good?" She asks. hat "Shall I come?" Manfred. "This afternoon, perhaps," he says finally. "I have some fruit with me!" Then he hangs up.
two tablets he takes, he pulls the covers over his head and falls asleep ...
