Sounds like a good question for her mother's oncologist. I have seen some posts on this forum by cancer survivors, so I'm sure it is a possibility! Good Luck!

I am happy that your mom okay. I'll talk to your mother's doctor. Did your mom have chemo? If she did then she might have wait. My dad is colon cancer survivor and my doctor told him to wait a few years. However I am not a doctor.

I'm a colon cancer survivor 2 1/2 years and off of chemo 2. I've read here on the boards that you may need to wait 5 years and I've also chatted with other survivors that you don't have to wait. Talk to the oncologist as well as the surgeon. And thank goodness your mom is ok. As well as the other survivors posting. God bless (if you believe).
