Question

My grandmother's heart efficiency is just 20 percent, and she's also dealing with jaundice and has a stone stuck in her food pipe. The doctor mentioned surgery, but I'm a bit worried since the low heart efficiency might mean she has some heart issues, right? I'm just trying to figure out what's best for her. What should we do in this situation?
