Dear makeitsimple,
It is very difficult to answer your question without further details. There are several types of blood cancer, which have completely different treatments and outcome. Even if you say that your father has lymphoma, in order to inform you if it is curable, I need to know the subtype of lymphoma. Come back to me if you have any more details. Hope your father gets better.
