Welcome to the OCF and I am very sorry to hear what is going on with your father. I'm sure that you know that Fox Chase is one of the premier cancer centers in the US. I was treated there in 2005 and more than likely your dad is being treated by the same doctor. Although my cancer was not the same as your dad's I can tell you that he is in good hands. Everyone at Fox Chase is at the top of their field.
As you can see below, I live in Yardley and I'm sure that we don't live too far apart. Feel free to email me and let me know if there is anything I can do to help. In case you don't know how to get the email link, just click on the second icon from the left next to the time of my post.
