ok, so my father has had tongue cancer 5 times over 9 years. every two years it has come back and removed with surgery and replaced the removed body parts with other parts of his body (he no longer has his original tongue or jaw). now, he may have colon cancer. what are his chances of survival after all this? well, after all the other surgeries, he can no longer receive radiation. i don't know what stage he is at i just know he may have it.

Well that depends on what stage colon cancer he has. If it can be removed with surgery and he takes treatment after surgery then his chances of survival are very high.

The 5 year survival rate for colon cancer is based upon its stage of progression. If a patient previously had cancer at another location, then its appearance elsewhere in the body typically constitutes metastasis from the original site. "Replaced the removed body parts with other parts of his body"? I haven't heard that story before.
