Anal Cancer Survival

Question: will i die if i get anul cancer? sister has anal cancer. she has been told it has spread to the lymph system. needs more tests. what are the chances of survival. want to keep all info to myself.

Answer: I am sorry for your sister. Only God knows the true answer to the that. No one here can accurately answer your question without seeing all of her tests results, examining her and of of course a trip to med school. I can tell you that an anus is not necessary to live a full and happy life. They will just give her an ostomy.
