Hi Abernathy.
I wouldn't worry about sativa vs indica. The 2 main things to focus on are getting high THC to the tumors and keeping levels steady by dosing every 4 hours.
And yes you can increase dosage more rapidly. Doubling dose every 3 days is the upper end of increase rate. He'll definitely feel the euphoria but that's definitely a secondary concern now and may actually be a good thing if he's experiencing pain from advanced disease or the treatments. It will not interfere with treatment for pneumonia. (I was in hospital for a week with pneumonia at end of last chemo and recovered amazingly fast considering the shape I was in.)
Bio bombs made with extra virgin olive oil and liquid lecithin and taken as suppositories will do better job of getting more CCO to lung and lymph sites than any other method. And suppositories will lessen the psychoactivity, as will the apigenin supplements recommended in cajun's 1st post.
[edit: I use 00 size capsules from health food store for suppositories. With bio bomb mix they absorb in 15-30 minutes, even if he has accident he still gets medicine]
If you processed the oil until there were no large bubbles then the alcohol is gone. Champagne bubbles are from decarbing.
It's scary now, but many of us have been given the months to live prognosis. If I'd followed all my doctors' advice they would have been right. But I found what you've now found, and that made all the difference. You have the best cancer medicine ever made. Take a moment and look at the oil you made and let it sink in. You've already done something so amazing it's hard to believe it's real. Believe it!
