Hi Ruth R Welcome to the group, but sorry to hear about your Dad. This is an awful situation you have found yourself in. Your Dad has been through so much already, and to now be told he cannot have treatment must be devastating for you.
Can I suggest you call the Macmillan support line to discuss this with someone. It is a free call number and they are available 7 days a week from 8am until 8pm on 0808 808 00 00
Take care x
