Recovering from an Illness or Injury

Julio: Hi, Aunt Louisa, it’s Julio. 

Paula: ...And Paula. I’m on the extension in the kitchen. 

Julio: Anyway, we just wanted to call and wish you a speedy recovery. Get plenty of bed rest and take it easy. Avoid greasy1 or spicy2 foods and drink lots of liquids. You don’t want to become dehydrated. 

Paula: Don’t listen to him. You need to stay active and not get in the habit of sitting around. You’ll recover faster if you get up and move around a lot. 

Julio: That’s terrible advice. She needs rest and to eat right. You know what they say: “Feed a cold, starve a fever.” 

Paula: What does that old adage3 have to do with anything? What you need, Aunt Louisa, is to alternate between a heating pad and an ice pack. 

Julio: What are you talking about? Aunt Louisa has a bad cold. 

Paula: What?! I thought she had a sore back!
