Try to register to attain a donor heart for a possible future transplant. Hopefully your cousin can find one within 5 years. Until then, your cousin should ensure that he/she has created a living will and advance directives (statements that state his/her wishes in the event that he/she cannot speak for himself/herself).
Hospice care should also be considered during the last several months of life. If the doctor didn't mention these things then you might be right: your doctor is stupid.

Definetly get another opinion,no doctor is god and no doctor can say when we will live or die,if your cousin has an illness that can shorten life then be sure that your cousin lives life to the fullest,but as for the doctor,see about 3 and then weigh the verdict,dont sentence death with the word of one man

There have been numerous cases where the indivudual has lived a full life after being told they would die. Tell your friend not to let this doctors comments make him fatalistic. He should live each day to the fullest (a should everyone) Find out what it is that makes life worth living and focus his mind on that.

We are all going to die so my advice to all, including your cousin, is to grasp each day and make the most of it. Live it as if it were your last because one day it will be.
PS. Hope some treatment comes up that prolongs your cousin's life and gives him quality time to enjoy before he goes.
