Nafil was like any other 5-year-old, vibrant and energetic. However, his mom, Anita, noticed he had trouble breathing during physical activities and struggled to sleep through the night. They met with Dr. Zi Yang Jiang, a pediatric otolaryngologist (also known as an ENT specialist) affiliated with Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital.
