Who to believe?

Today the doctors diagnosed Dad with AML (acute myelogenous leukemia). The internet says that adult patients have a 15-20% chance to live 5 years. The doctor says he hasn't lost a patient yet because he goes with a very aggressive chemo treatment. The doctor says that 6 out of 7 will survive. He is the same doc who save my mom's life last year by going with aggressive treatments. I want to believe him, but I have my doubts.

I think it's very important to be optimistic when fighting cancer.
