Since he currently has a feeding tube I would say to help him, push the feedings to build him up as much as possible. It would help to add some high protein powder to his formula (make sure to also add an extra can of water) to help him with the healing. A cancer center is the best place for him to get help. Sometimes people end up traveling across the country to go to the top teams of doctors. I wish you both all the very best with everything.
