A member asked:

What can i do if my father is dying from congestive heart failure, what is going to happen?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Difficult to say: I am very sorry about your father condition. I don't know specifics and for that reason difficult to opinion. Have they try biventricular pacemaker? Are he a candidate for heart transplant? There are many advances for heart failure patients and surgeons specialized in the area. Good luck. I'll pray for you and your family.
