Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
We need to know what kind of murmur she has. If she has any heart hole and due to that murmur occurs, then it's very easy to treat. A device can be put and she can start her normal life again. I also had a very large murmur and a big heart hole, now I am happy after getting it fixed up.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. ARCHANA
