Hello. Considering the current medical condition of your father , I would suggest it would be better if you catheterise him. He is not taking orally, you need to estimate the fluid input and output for that a foleys catheter would be best.
As soon as he is ambulatory we can discuss his problem (considering he will be having post RT bladder changes, the prognosis is grim)
