   That unfortunately is not a question that can be answered honestly.

   Sure I could tell you.. yeah.. things will be fine. But I dont know that nor anyone on yahoo answers.

   The main factors are as follows.
   1) Stage of the Cancer ( stage 4 is tough to treat)
   2) Location (the bowel is a big place, some places can be cut out if it hasnt spread)
   3) Is it on the outside of the bowel or the inside (Outside of the bowel has a greater likelyhood of spreading to other organs)
   4) Cancer is never easy to cure. But many do recover completely with surgery, radiation ,and chemotherapy.

   Its all about the progression of the cancer and agressiveness. Its different for everyone mate.
   Good luck and sorry to hear the news.

   Hi, If the bowel cancer was diagnosed early and your Mum goes through the stages of surgery chemotherapy or radiation, there is a good chance that it will not recur. Like most cancers, if it is found in the early stages, it can be curable. Mum will need the support of you and her family, but the main thing is for you and your family to try and keep her positive. I wish your Mum all the very best.

   -In yahoo answers I have read very good discussions about cancer . You too might have read a lot of information about cancer here in yahoo answers. Hence ,If you go on writing answers to the questions asked by many questioners about caner here in yahoo answers ,then ,I can understand how much knowledge you have already gained about cancer .If there if mistake in any of your way of thinking about cancer ,I can write my opinion about cancer to you. If I feel that you have not given sufficient importance to any important point about cancer ,I can write about that to you
   You should try to understand each and every sentence written about cancer ,here in yahoo answers. If you do not understand any difficult English word you should refer a dictionary to find out the meaning Now I have to know how many information you already know about cancer. Then I can understand ,what are the information you do not know about cancer .I should know about to have also If you have not read those pages already ,then I have to write to you those information. If you have already read those pages then if I write again those information ,it will be boring., uninteresting topic to you .Therefore ,I will have to write to you about more advanced topics, What I have to write to you depends on how many hours you have already read about cancer. It will be useful if I know the type of cancer the patient is suffering from ,duration elapsed since commencement and the name of the medicines the patient is taking already .
