@sthakral, treatments can be harsh. Did your dad's doctors talk to your family about palliative care? Palliative can focuses on comfort and symptom management. Let me know if you want more information if you haven't heard of palliative care.

Hi Colleen,
Palliative care is what the doctor recommended and what we are doing. We are just trying to keep him as comfortable as possible. But he’s getting weaker by the day and needs assistance with everything. I know he hates that as he is used to being self reliant and active.
