My father has been told his heart muscle is dying, what is the name of this disease?

My father in law had a triple by pass about 8 years ago after a heart attack and even though the doctors believed too much heart muscle had died he actually made a good recovery. He has now been told that his heart muscle is dying, which he won't talk about so we need to know what this means
