Suggest Treatment For Copd And Congested Heart Failure

My mother-in-law was just diagnosed with copd and congested heart failure and she lives with us and I don't know what to do because we try to help her eat healthy and she doesn't want to.It's like she has given up and she is a very uneducated person and thinks we are trying to control her eating certain foods.How can we help her?She doesn't do anything all day but sleep and stay awake all night eating and she eats while laying down.I am affraid me or her grandkids are gonna find her deceased . What can we do to help her? She is 5'3 or 5'4 and weighs at least 300lbs.
