Your father probably has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. A difficulty in the oxygen being delivered from the lungs to the red blood cells in his blood. Thus the hemoglobin in his red blood cells are not all filled with oxygen. Hemoglobin, if unfilled with oxygen, changes from a red color to a deep blue/purple color. That is why we think of blood coming from the heart as red and returning to the heart as blue on diagrams of the circulatory system. In fact, if your father was not on oxygen, his nails probably would be an even darker blue color. The oxygen should be, in fact, improving his color.
