Brief Answer:
It is stage 4 cancer. Surgery is not possible.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have rectal cancer with metastasis in liver and lung so it is stage 4 cancer. Surgery is not possible.

Chemotherapy and radiotherapy can be taken but it is just palliative treatment. Cure is not possible now. Moreover side of chemotherapy and radiotherapy worsen the quality of life.


So in my opinion no treatment should be given. Just give happiness in rest of life.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
