Hi,
Based on the description, it appears that your father has gone in for terminal stage of illness. He could be having final stage of Alzheimer's disease. Hence, at this stage, you need to give moral support along with supportive treatment by giving healthy food and multivitamin supplements. Since this stage is irreversible, it is not possible to institute any particular type of treatment.
Hope the information provided would be helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ashakiran S
