Welcome to the MDS community. Please attend the medical appointment with your father as traceyn11 recommended. I also suggest recording the conversation so you can listen later. Doctors deliver bad news multiple times daily and they aren't emotionally invested. Key information will be communicated quickly and you may miss it. The situation may sound worse the first time you hear it. The recording allows you to revisit the conversation and pickup the facts.
This is a complex disease with 1-2 known potential cures, Stem Cell Transplant (SCT) and Chemotherapy. Both involve options are high risk.
