HelloWaspsRugby87
I am sorry to hear your dad has oesophageal cancer. It is such a worry for him and you / family.
I hope by now your dad has got more information about his diagnosis and treatment plan.
My hubby has this and was fitted with a stent ( opens up the oesophagus) pre beginning treatment because the tumour was causing issues like your dads.
He has had chemo which has helped and lots of soup yoguarts mash and pureed curry Bolognese with extra sauce and flushed down with fizzy drinks / water
I enrich foods with cream sour cream and get protein shakes .
Thin things right down if needs be
I hope the tips are useful
Sending strength
