First of all I have traveled a little bit with my daughter, Cuba, and India are the places of interest here. when Traveling with little ones you need to take precautions! Filter All water. I really do mean it! Also take care care in food preparation too! Diarrhea is bad news for small children! Also antimalarials can be really bitter, I told my little one that if she had the tablet she could have some chocolate! The problem on one holiday was it was so bitter she wretched it up on every occasion. That did not stop her trying as she wanted the chocolate!

2 weeks after returning home she was taken ill, very ill! Off to hospital, I explained where we had been so a malaria was checked for. Also an idiot parent in her school didn't have their child vaccinated against measles, and was infectious so that was then checked for. Then phone calls to family and they contacted their local hospitals, and there had been an outbreak of dengue fever, so this was also checked for.

In the end it was found to be meningitis! Picked up after we returned!

This was very frightening, and I was prepared. Thankfully she made a full recovery!

If I am going away with my little one really off the beaten track I would carry a means of contacting help anywhere like a satellite phone. and a proper survival kit, with meds in it!

The correct treatment and advice were everything.

Oh and yes I will be traveling with her again. How else can she see and understand about the world other than the western bubble she normally lives in!
