Naya is a runner! She was running all through the cardiology department lobby when I saw her today. Her father ran after her and he was breathing heavily. “I am the one who will need a heart surgery!” he joked. We all laughed as Naya went running toward the elevator, now in the opposite direction. I attempted to take her picture and I began to chase her. This made her laugh and run even more. As her father, mother, and I made chase she bolted toward the bomb shelter door, then returned at the sound of her father’s rebuke.
I was happy to see Naya in such good spirits and high energy. Pray for Naya that her catheterization is a success and her heart health will be better for her wild and active life!
