We are three days back from the hospital having overcome three drop counters and many more injections. The matter was that my elder daughter was brought back home from kindergarten because of vomiting. It continued for 12 hours (about 10 times) and in the evening my daughter was feverish. The next day the temperature didn`t fall down but my sweety no longer felt nauseated. That calmed us down and we decided not to go to hospital. It was only 50 hours later (from the very beginning) that we took her to the hospital. The doctor was really furious about the fact that we came only then since Teona`s condition was serious, the doctor doubted if she should be taken to reanimation for she had been dehydrated in spite of the fact that we had made her drink mineral water very much. To cut the long story short we were in hospital with my both children for a week with the diagnosis gastroenteritis. Here is a short reference on the illness and some practical advice.
