Default Pneumonia

Jaya, 3lbs, 14yo. She was misdiagnosed last week with heart failure. 3 days later, I took her to a cardiologist, who diagnosed pneumonia. Her ultra sound with the cardio. shows some damage to the heart from the pneumonia, but no heart disease. She was taken off the heart med, which just made her feel worse, kept on Lasix, put on Clavomox. She will also be on some pressure reducing drugs, one is Viagra, but it's coming from a compounding pharmacy. She gets a little weaker every day, voluntarily drinks water, but very little food. Lots of NutriCal and yogurt by syringe. Does anyone know of anything else I can do for her? I've done some chest massage and right now she's sitting in a very light steam. My heart is breaking. Anyone been through this? Please pray for little Jaya. Thank you.
