Has your FIL given his doctor(s) permission to speak with a family member? It would probably be best to speak directly with the doctor about how to best help your FIL. I'm not sure, but are you referring to coronary artery disease (blockages) or heart failure?

Has he recovered from the pneumonia? That can take quite a toll on someone already in poor health. What medications is he currently taking?
