This is a question you need to ask your mother-in-law's surgeon who did the surgery, or her oncologist, (cancer doctor). Those are the people who are best suited to answer this question as they are most familiar with her condition. There are too many variables among individual people for someone to be able to answer this question in this format. A lot depends on the general state of your mother-in-law's health to begin with, and whether or not she is having follow-up radiation or chemotherapy or both, so ask her oncologist or surgeon. They will be able to give you a much better prognosis. Best wishes to your mother-in-law and your family.
