Almost lost my son when he was three to Rotavirus. Took him to the ER and they said it was just gastro(which it is, just aggresive). He kept vomiting and crapping clear vile smelling liquid for 12 hours. Took him to the ER again where the Dr done the pinch test and his skin stuck together. He had IV's in both arms to try and get fluids back. His pulse was down to 40 and he was barely conscious. Scary sh$$t. Touch and go for 24 hours.
