Welcome to the forum . Glad you reached out to us . To be honest you just never know how this disease is going to affect you . Despite him not being there for you it’s nice you care .

Bowel cancer actually has a very favourable outcome when caught early . It could very well be that it’s contained within the bowel . They will do full scans on him and decide the best treatment approach .
My mum was a late diagnosis but continues to do well .

Hope he is recovering . It takes time to let the information sink in but we are here to help you both as you move forward with his new situation .

Take care ,

Court
