Your father has stage 4 bladder cancer. Stage 4 disease has poor prognosis with 5 year survival rate of only 15 %. Since cure is not possible, emphasis is on palliation of symptoms with chemotherapy mainly and radiation therapy (if required). I hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions in the course of your fathers' illness I will be more than happy to answer.
