My sister, after going on a amusement ride where you go on a trampoline with 2 bungee cords attached to either side of you, and this man pulls your feet down and you go rocketing up in the sky, she started to look very pale and her lips were purplish... Don't tell me it was because of the amusement ride 'cause I rode on it too. After she looked pale, she started to get very fatigued and went to the store bathroom to throw up. So then we started to walk home and she got so tired I actually carried her home... When she got home she was too tired to pull off her shoes so I did it. Then she immediately went straight to bed. Just in case she threw up I brought her a bucket and it was good that I did because only a few minutes after I brought her that bucket she started to violently vomit. It was orangish because of the baked beans we ate that morning. She was slightly sweaty to the touch. then over the course of 2 hours she violently threw up and I gave her water to drink. After an hour or so her vomit turned transparent like the water I was giving her. She was not hungry and was resting in her bed the whole time. I knew this was not entirely the amusement ride's fault. Now it is late at night and she is sleeping mostly. She threw up again a few times and she is very pityful... Please help me and my sister... Some additional info is that we live in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. Is it possible that she was slightly food poisoned and the amusement ride set it off?? Please help us...

She probably has food poisoning, the amusment ride couldn't have set it off, so she would have started throwing up around that time even if she didn't go on the ride. She'll be better soon. You have to start by giving her liquids and having her drink them slowly.

Oh no that's terrible. I agree with the first poster it sounds a lot like food poisoning. I think the violent motion of the ride just churned her stomach and brought it on a little more quickly. Poor baby. I know it looks awful my brother just went through this, but her body is doing exactly what it needs to do - expelling the harmful poisons from her body. Hopefully she should be MUCH better tomorrow but if she isn't she MUST see a doctor. In the meantime, she probably wont feel like eating much. You have to encourage her to stay hydrated. Popsicles are a wonderful and tasty way to stay hydrated. When my nephew had a gastrointestinal infection which caused him to vomit several times, his doctors gave him posicles to rehydrate him. I'm sorry I cant be of more help. For now it looks like clear liquids and broths are the only thing you can really do for her. Her body will take care of the rest. Remember if she is still throwing up any by tomorrow get her to the doctor. Best of luck to her!
