Cry Scruffy sick with Heart failure

My Scruffy has been diagnosed with congestive heart failure. He is now on lasix, aminophyline, and starting enacard, does anyone know what else I can do for him? Any holistic, or alternative, nutritional...anything?? I am sick and sad. He is 13 yrs, had a cough for awhile, thought it was something he always had--that gagging cough he has done for years, but apparently is heart is enlarged--started with a murmur, and had pulmonary edema. He is stable now and at home with me, he seems to be responding to meds, but I want to do all I can to make him comfortable and want to find out more about anyone else's experience with this? Thanks, I have been crying and have a little reprieve now that he is home and seems better.
