Anyone have any suggestions for how to get a dying Skins fan good seats?

Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this, but my old man was diagnosed with cancer around the holidays last year and we just got the news that the chemo and radiation didn't stop it, so it appears that it has spread. I fear he might not have much time left. I hope I'm wrong, but if I'm not, I sure as hell don't want my final memories to be of him sitting around in his house, working. He's a lifelong Skins fan, as was my grandfather, who passed away last year, and figured it was worth a shot to see if I could get to one last game with him.

One problem -- seats. The kind of tickets I am likely to be able to get my hands on are nosebleeds and he's on oxygen due to the cancer, so walking up all those steps is not going to happen.

I'm dubious about my chances of getting some kind of "old man's dying wish" seats comped by the team or anything, but who knows. Anyone have any suggestions? Is there an area that would be good for someone of limited physical strength to be able to sit and enjoy the game? I've only been to Fedex a few times and it was always the nosebleeds so I have no idea what the other options are.

Thanks for any advice.
