Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
He has oral cancer and spread to the nasopharynx. So it is last stage of cancer. Surgery will not helpful at this stage. Treatment of choice remains chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Despite of treatment prognosis remains poor. Life expectancy is not good. Sorry to say but it is bitter fact. A man should not expect much from this.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
