I know what your going through. Sorry to hear about your dad. My prayers are with you and your family.

My dad is 81 and has the same thing. They tried treatments and nothing worked. He was getting blood and platelets every other week. He was diagnosed last November. His was active as your dad. Then he slowly started slowing down. The last month his transfusions began more frequently and we just found out last Tuesday that he can't get anymore transfusions and that there is nothing else the doctor can do. The doctor has turned him over to Hospice care. He is mostly tired and in bed sleeping. They are giving him meds to keep him comfortable and that's it. So we are just spending as much time with him as possible. It's like the doctors sent him home to die.
