If they havnt already done it I would ask the Airline that they are using. They must deal with all sorts of disabilities. For help while in Spain HELP VEGA BAJA in San Miguel have a very good website or you could telephone them to ask.

Here’s a link to the Help Vega Baja factsheet on Oxygen in Spain:

It seems unlikely that your father will get travel insurance with a terminal diagnosis. Is that something that you’ve looked into? He’d obviously get emergency treatment with an EHIC card anyway, but that wouldn’t cover things like repatriation.

I hope you can find a way to make this happen though.

Pete.
