The surgeon recommended she have an op. The problem is, she has already had 2 tumours removed from her colon and lost 50% of her colon. Faced with the prospect of a 3rd op, she is refusing to have any treatment. I am wondering what to do next. Try and talk her round? Wait for the disease to run its course? Try and get a Macmillan nurse involved? I&#39;m wondering how long it will take before the cancer spreads. What will happen if she doesn&#39;t have any treatment?</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/aggbug?PostID=259921&AppID=30013&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">Former Memberhttps://community.macmillan.org.uk/members/formermember
