Hi btm66,
The child is way too Acidic and has Toxins built up in their body.
You may give an enema using maybe one fourth of a cup of apple cider vinegar mixed in warm water to fill the enema bag.
This will help clean out the colon and speed the recovery!!
Read my post in this forum and in the Candida Forum to learn more about the Acid Alkaline pH Balancing and also research the archives, which have much good info to help you solve the problem!!
You will need to change the Diet and "STOP" the eating of "JUNK" foods!!
