Brief Answer:
Pneumonitis

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the information.

Chest xray attached shows a moderate amount of consolidation which indicates pneumonitis. The pneumonitis could most probably be due to infective cause needing antibiotics for the cure.

Also the xray shows major cardiac anomaly what appears to be tetrology of fallot. I would recommend you to visit a cardiologist who can order further tests identify the anomaly exactly.

Hope, I was helpful.
