"Am I going to die?" That was the question Tammy Meffert tearfully asked after learning her heart was functioning at just 23%. Tammy was a busy mom of four, active and otherwise healthy — until subtle symptoms like shortness of breath turned into a life-threatening diagnosis: advanced heart failure.
