Possible heart problem

Naomi was experiencing a bad cough and fever this week, so Nina took her to the emergency room. Naomi's pediatrician recommended a chest x-ray to rule out pneumonia, and in the x-ray it appeared that Namoi's heart is enlarged, which could be a sign of heart damage. The chemotherapy drugs that Naomi has been taking could be responsible for the enlargement, but happily her pediatrician found that there were no other symptoms or signs of heart problems, such as water in the lungs, irregular heartbeat, etc. Naomi will be undergoing and Echo-Cardiogram on September 12 to rule out a heart problem. Please continue your prayers!

Our continued prayers for Naomi's healing process. May all of you find the strength to continue on the path to healing and spirital health. If there is any thing I can do please let me know.
