What Is The Life Expectancy Of A Person With 14% Heart Ejection Rate?

Hi Doctor, thanks, in advance, for your answer..... My father in law has a heart ejection rate of only 14% and is 94. He was told he had 6 months or less to love. Can he live longer just because he s eating 3 meals per day and his mind is still okay and he walks with his walker around the house at times ? I think that has nothing to do with his heart. He has hospice care at his home now. Your answer would be greatly appreciated.
