How long can the body live without the heart? I have Reoccuring Periocarditis/Left Ventricular Cardiomyopathy?

I have reoccuring periocarditis & LVC with some wall thickening. Let's say I just suddenly drop playing basketball or football or while I'm out for a 5 mile run or while I'm in the bedroom with my woman. Realistically what are the chances of my survival if my heart fails even with the administration of CPR. Also can a heart that has failed due to my condition be defibbed to restart?

I'm not sure, But I will pray for you.
