Tameka Stettler says her granddaughter, Alivia Viellieux, was about to turn 4 years old. Stettler says they took Alivia to a medical clinic for flu-like symptoms on Tuesday. The clinic sent her to the emergency room, and she was kept at the hospital until Thursday. "She was taking her fluids," said Stettler. "They took the IV out and she was drinking on her own." On Thursday, Alivia appeared to be progressing and was sent home. She was found dead Monday morning. "She was eating cheetos last night," said Stettler. "She was walking last night. How does that just happen?"
