My sig other's father had the same type of cancer that eventually went into his bones. Could be your mother doesn't want to worry you about his condition, and that is understandable. My advise is to learn all you can about this type of cancer, that way you will on board knowing what could be happening next. And then maybe your mother will open up to your dad's condition if she knows you understand the different stages of cancer.
