You need to go to assistance office and apply for it and also go to Social Security office and apply for SSI or SSD, either way he qualifies for state Medicaid card

If your dad does not have an estate from which you can draw funds and he agrees to pay you, in the USA, I doubt if there is any agency that will give you financial assistance. However, Cancer.org or check into other Cancer Societies, they might assist you in moving and finding help for your dad, while you relocate and find a job. He should also be eligible for hospice care http://www.cancer.org/docroot/home/index.asp
