THE DOCTOR'S VISIT
(Part I)
When it was time for Lena to get up one morning, she told her mother that she was not feeling well.
Her mother felt her forehead, which was hot, and said, "Yes, you were coughing during the night, perhaps you have caught a cold." Then she took her daughter's temperature.
"Your temperature is too high", she said, "you can't go to school today, you must stay in bed and I shall call a doctor".
Then Lena's mother telephoned the home visiting service of the district polyclinic.
"Will you please send a doctor", she said. "My daughter, fifteen years old, has. a temperature of thirty-seven point nine. She was coughing during the night and has a bad headache". Then she gave the address and the voice in the telephone promised that the doctor would come during the day.
Some time later the bell rang and Lena's mother opened the door to a woman about her age who was wearing a white doctor's coat under her winter coat and carrying a small bag in her hand.
"So you have a cough and a temperature?" she asked, entering Lena's room. "Well, let's see what the matter is". She took Lena's temperature, counted her pulse, and then examined the patient.
When she had finished her examination she said to Lena's mother, "You daughter has the flu. She must stay in bed for three or four days and take the medicine I shall prescribe".

THE DOCTOR'S VISIT
(Part II)
The doctor wrote out the prescription and continued, "Take this prescription to the chemist's and you will be given some pills. Give your daughter one pill four times a day before meals. The girl will not want to eat while her temperature is high, but give her a lot to drink. Keep her warm in bed, but leave the window open. I shall come to see her the day after tomorrow, but if she gets worse you must ring up the polyclinic immediately. However, I don't think she will get worse. Tomorrow she will cough less and in a day or two she will fell quite herself again".
