I do not go often to the doctor because I am rarely sick. During the winter, if I have a sore throat I usually take sweetened candy with honey. I rarely take antibiotics not even for a cold; I have to be really sick to take something. In general, in France people use modern medicine, but others prefer to take more natural remedies like the ones from our grandmother’s such as grog. For those who have never heard of that term, it is a drink that works very well against a sore throat. It is a hot water-based drink to which you had lemon, honey and rum “ambré”. Although I am not often sick, I always keep my doctor’s cell phone number close to me, just in case I am really sick!
