My Father In Law Is 77 Years Old, Has Congestive

My father in law is 77 years old, has congestive heart failure and diabetes. His heart is functioning at 20% down from 50% in September 2015. His blood sugar has been in the 30's for the past week. His kidneys are not functioning properly and it is hard for him to breath. He has no energy sleeps 20 hours a day and will no longer eat. These symptoms started after he was hospitalized with phenomia a few weeks ago.He has been in the hospital for the past 3 days and the doctors have not been able to give us a straight answer as to what all this means. Is this the beginning of the end? What are his chances of stabilizing and getting back to where he was a few weeks ago?
