When I caught a cold
Last week I listened to the next podcast:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/6-minute-english/ep-171228
When I was young I always like to stay ill, because in such days I have to stay at home instead going to school.
Being at home I had more time to do my children matters, despite all irritate symptoms as running nose or sore throat.
Also in these days I was especially surrounded by the care of my parents and could sleep in longer than usual.
It was nice, so if I woke up and felt not good with the first symptoms of a cold, I immediately informed my parents about it.
Looking at me and measuring my temperature they made a decision about my day schedule, whether should I stay home or go to school.
Often I have been exaggerated and pretended that I feel bad in order to my parents allow me to stay in.
When I became an adult my attitude towards a cold was changed.
If I suddenly get sick I should be a soldier on despite my cold symptoms.
Of course at situations like that I should take a day off and call for the doctor, but I can not do this, because I work in shift schedules.
When I'm ill, I prefer more traditional and in my opinion more efficient methods of treatment, like a warm lemon tea or hot milk with honey instead of the pills.
Usually I need about three days to recover.

Being At home I had more time to do my children matters do childish things [to play, to do what kids do, to be a kid], despite all the irritatinge symptoms as like a running nose or sore throat.
Also in on these days I was especially particularly surrounded by the care of my parents [my parents took special care of me] and could sleep in longer than usual.
It was nice, so if I woke up and didn't feelt not good well with the first symptoms of a cold, I immediately informed my parents about it.

Often I exaggerated and pretended that I felt bad to fool my parents into letting me stay in.
When I became an adult my attitude towards the common cold changed.
If I suddenly got sick I should soldier on despite my symptoms.
Of course, at these times, I should have taken a day off and called the doctor, but I could do this, because I work shifts.
