I would go get a second opinion from someone else just to ease your mind.

You can't just throw chemo in there--they need to find out what it is on his liver. Yes, the cancer could come back and could come back in another place other than the colon. It's something I have worried about on/off since my breast cancer in 1999. Get the doctors to check him out thoroughly!

I would defiantly go for a second opinion, if it was one of their family members, themselves or friends they would have that spot checked in heartbeat. You and your husband deserve to know if the spot is worrisome or just a spot but just by looking at it and not have concrete proof, its best to have it checked. Call the doctor's office that said not to worry and ask for a referral or tell them you want a second opinion, not that you don't trust them you just need (and deserve) peace of mind. Its scary to have to go through things like that and its easier said than done when someone says not to worry. Good Luck, keep us posted!
