Answers:
My father was diagnosed with colon cancer in 1989 they removed the tumor and also he had a colostomy bag!. The cancer had spread to the lymph nodes as well!. My father died in 1997 he lived 8 yrs they told him he had a year to live anything is possible!. I believe your attitude towards life plays a part, being optimistic and not giving in to the disease!. This is what I learned but it doesn't always work enjoy whatever time you have with him because you never knowWww@Answer-Health@Com
It depends on if he is having chemotherapy!. If the tumor was too big to remove or in a place that it can't be removed, or if he already has the cancer spread to another organ he will not survive to a normal old age!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
there is always a chance!. life is uncertain!. but it seems unlikelyWww@Answer-Health@Com
