Differential Diagnosis - introduction

This is a new series in which we look at physical ailments in the Bible and try to diagnose them according to todays medical knowledge... Here's the first question - The child grew. and one day he went out to his father, who was with the reapers. 'My head, my head!' he said to his father. His father told a servant 'Carry him to his mother... ' the boy sat on her lap until noon, and then died.' 2 Kings 4:18-20
