He was having some rectal bleeding last fall, and the colonoscopy found a rectal tumor- adenocarcinoma. Thanks for your advice. I know any added percentage to the chance of in not reoccuring is good, but he has been through so much, and is finally feeling better. bearskins.

It would be different if he were 72. Dont be afraid of chemo. Not everyone has a rough time with it.
