“An educated guess is that it’s the colon cancer since they were looking for the prostate cancer”

Concur

Info on Colon Cancer

“If the cancer is diagnosed at a localized stage, the survival rate is 91%. If the cancer has spread to surrounding tissues or organs and/or the regional lymph nodes, the 5-year relative survival rate is 72%. If colon cancer has spread to distant parts of the body, the 5-year relative survival rate is 13%.

So if colon cancer, and even if worst case, he probably has many months if not a few years. I have a hard time believing it would not have been caught relatively early.

Another “guess” is that it might be bladder or urinary cancer. But it has been stated that they found it VERY early!
