My Lovely Dad is now back driving and popping out and about,- somehting i didnt think he&#39;d do again! The only question for me is, Where is the appointment for Chemo???? Although they said my Dad was cancer free, after removel of tumour, they offered him chemo &#39;just in case&#39; in the new year, this was in Dec 09.&nbsp; Does anyone know how long they wait before having chemo after an operation?? I really want to chase it up because I think to have it sooner is better than later.&nbsp; Dont want any little buggers to have the chance to grow, if they were left there!!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Has anyone else had experience of this?? And how soon after would you have a scan to check to see if you&#39;re still all clear??&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Would appreciate any advice,&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Jobo</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/aggbug?PostID=322316&AppID=30305&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">Former Memberhttps://community.macmillan.org.uk/members/formermember
