Running Out of Time by Margaret Peterson Haddix
When the children of Clifton start to get sick, Jessie isn't too worried. After all, the doctor in the town typically gives them little pills under the counter after telling them some local things to take, but lately, the doctor hasn't had the pills anymore. And Jessie's mom is getting more and more worried about the sick children.
Her mom tells Jessie to meet her out in the woods one night, away from everyone, but won't tell her why. That is, until her mom is sure they are all alone.
