Hard to say: Too many unknown factors. Please discuss with his oncologist or primary doc who knows of his case details.

Long time: Colon cancer that is treated with out surgery, example colon cancer removed by colonscopy usually will have very good results. If a colon cancer is not treated it can obviously lead to spread and metastasis. You can calculate life span based on the stage of the cancer and how it is or is not treated.
