Stage 2 With Only 5 Lymph Nodes Found...Need Chemo?

Subject: Stage 2 with only 5 lymph nodes found...Need Chemo?
Date: 05/21/2007
My husband was diagnosed with stage 2 colon cancer. Pathology found only 5 lymph nodes, which were located closest to the bowl, and are all negative. The oncologist is recommending chemo because of the lack of the number of the lymph nodes although most all the people with stage 2 do not need chemo. Is there anyone who had a similar experience? We are not sure if chemo is really needed in this situation or not....
