    Yes it is , specially if you got a met moths or years after your
    primary cancer (not synchronic) , also he has been operated so you got lots of chances.

    Oh
    Wow. As a fellow stage 1 survivor, I always feel the hairs on the back of my neck when I read about something like this. Sure hope he'll be FINE from this point on.

    Sorry
    Sorry to hear this, but this is really not usual but can happen. Hoping that he gets this taken care of soon and all is well.
