I'm in a similar situation. Diagnosed with colon cancer at 34 with a 3 year at home and my wife still pregnant with our second one. I ended up switching jobs after my surgery and know that things could flare up again. I didn't bring it up during my interviews since it wasn't something I felt I needed to mention. The focus of the interview is your skills and how well you'd fit in with the team. As someone already said, things happen to employees whether they've been at the job for 10 years or 10 months. Employers know that.
