I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your father has acute myeloid leukemia. His hemoglobin and platelets are very low. His red spots are due to low platelet count. He should take chemotherapy. Diet does not have much impact. Just take proper nutritional diet with adequate iron and b12 supplements.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
