Sorry to hear about your father-in-law, I wish him the best in his surgery and treatment.  While I cannot comment on his chances (I'm not a doctor) I want to write and give you some hope.  In April 2004 I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer and underwent treatment and surgery.  I have been cancer-free since August 2004.  Treatment is only a distant memory, like a bad dream I had long ago, and I'm feeling fine.  Modern medicine can do a great deal for people like your father-in-law and me.  Your family will be in my prayers and I hope he has an outcome as good as mine.

All the best,
