Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your father may have stomach cancer.
Treatment depends on type and stage of cancer. In early stage surgery will be helpful. In later stage surgery will not helpful and treatment options are chemotherapy and radiotherapy. These treatment is obviously very costly. You can go to government hospital where this treatment is done freely. In late stage prognosis is very poor.

Consult your doctor and plan accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
