Hi Melody
Welcome to our community. We do not get many members from Iran.
I had a liver resection in 2004. 2/3 of my liver was removed. I was 5 days in the hospital. No complications. I was back to normal and ready to start Chemo in about 4-6 weeks.
Liver resection is a life-saver when it comes to liver mets and colon cancer. I am glad your mother is able to have the procedure. You should be hopeful.
