"I have always told Wy and our fans the only thing that could stop me from this career that I so desperately love is my health. Unfortunately, that has happened."
However, the singer is still active with her fans and the fans wholeheartedly back n forth admire her. Naomi is also often praised for speaking towards the subject of mental health, panic attacks, and depression.
Her book 'River of Time' about depression and hope is set to be released on December 6th, 2018. We wish her luck on her new book which is going to be available this year.
