Answer 1

My dear friend!
It is so sad to know that you are ill! I am sorry about that! I believe you are getting better now.
I know how bad it is to be in bed when everybody can play tag, hopscotch and other outdoor games. The worst thing I had to do was taking medicine and injections. I remember my mom told me that I should stay in bed to avoid complications. So, beware, my friend! Do not forget that any disease is dangerous because of its complications! Follow your doctor’s prescriptions, take more hot tea with honey and/or raspberry jam.
I hope we will meet soon and enjoy time together. If you have any problem with your homework, do not hesitate to contact me. I am ready to help you with school issues.
Get well and stay in touch!

Дорогая подруга!
Печально знать, что ты больна. Сочувствую! Но я верю, что сейчас тебе уже лучше.
Я знаю, как неприятно лежать в постели, когда все играют в прятки, классики и другие игры на улице. Самое плохое – это принимать лекарства и уколы. Я помню, что моя мама говорила мне, что нужно отлежаться, чтобы не было осложнений! Помни, подруга, что любое заболевание опасно своими осложнениями. Поэтому следуй предписаниям врача, пей больше горячего чая с мёдом или малиновым вареньем.
Я надеюсь, что ты скоро поправишься и мы сможем вместе поиграть (досл. Насладиться временем). Если у тебя возникнут проблемы с домашним заданием, без колебаний обращайся. Я готова помочь тебе с решением школьных проблем.
Выздоравливай и пиши!

Dear [Friend's Name],

I was sorry to hear that you have the flu and are feeling terrible. Being stuck in bed can definitely be boring, but there are a few things you can do to make yourself feel more cheerful.

The last time I was ill was about two months ago. I had a bad case of the flu just like you. I remember feeling extremely tired and achy, and it was frustrating not being able to do anything.

Here are three pieces of advice on how to spend your time when you're ill:

1. Rest and sleep: One of the best ways to recover quickly is to get plenty of rest and sleep. Allow your body to heal and make sure to take the prescribed medications.

2. Entertainment: Keeping yourself entertained can help distract from how lousy you feel. Watch your favorite movies or TV shows, read books or listen to audiobooks, and perhaps try learning something new online, like a new language or a skill.

3. Stay connected: Even though you need to stay in bed, you can still stay connected with friends and family. Use your phone or computer to chat with loved ones, catch up on their lives, and maybe even play some online games together.

I hope you find these suggestions helpful, and I wish you a speedy recovery. Get well soon!

Take care, [Your Name]
