My child, are you drinking ice soup even after I told you not to?

While it's right to stay hydrated in order to replenish the fluids you lost, please stick to warm and clear liquids as ths temperature will help clear your sinuses. Apple cider and honey will help ease your cough, as honey is a natural cough suppressant and has antibacterial properties.

Proper rest is needed for your immune system to work efficiently, so try to get extra hours of sleep if you can. Consider drinking medicine only as a last resort, such as when you need to be out to do important errands, or if you're feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Feel better soon my child, and don't make your father worry too much.
