Narrative:
Flight attendant #2, xx, informed me of a child who was being comforted by its mother in the lavatory. The child had been and continued to throw up. (Mainly liquids.) he was continuing to lose fluids and not able to hold any down. We paged for a doctor. A doctor was found and after his diagnosis, he told us the child (1.8 yrs old) needed to be on the ground as soon as possible. It took approximately 2 hours to arrive in anc. The child, mother and grandfather deplaned in anc with paramedics. Supplemental information from acn 463823: dehydrated and needed iv as soon as possible.
