Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your brother has colon cancer with metastasis in liver. So it is already stage 4 cancer. Chance of cure is negligible. Chemotherapy help as palliative treatment. Despite of treatment prognosis remains poor. Life expectancy is not good. Sorry to say but it is the fact. Consult your doctor and plan accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
