Is the earth flat too?
Well said I was the same she still has bloody cancerTell that to the millions of people who have had surgery yet are going through treatment for months to ensure no spread and be given the all clear.

My treatment was preventive it was horrific . Totl hair loss barley functioning drastic weight loss, oss of all nails, nerve damage in feet . Sepsis that we to me needing 10 pints of blood and 8 of platelets. Don't say I didn't have cancer or treatment .
Her life will never be the same again even with a full physical recovery - your mind still goes to a dark place of what if

If you look at Jerry’s account, you’ll see their posts-to-likes ratio is really low, they’re clearly known for talking rubbish. Best to not react and just click ignore, once they’re that far down the rabbit hole they can’t even see reality anymore.
She’s had Botox and has Botox brow. When you start getting it yourself it’s very obvious on others. That doesn’t mean she’s not ill.
I am so sorry you have had to suffer this ignorant idiot. People who have no actual life experience with something have literally NO BUSINESS commenting on things they don’t understand. This kind of chemo is absolutely a thing, and is common with possible/actual lymph node involvement especially.

Exactly! I worked with a Catherine. We all called her Catherine, she’s known locally as Catherine but her immediate family call her Kate. A few of my closest family and friends call me a shortened version of my name but I’d never introduce myself as that name.
Agreeing with you both that we all react differently. My father died suddenly when I was 14. It didn’t leave me worried that anything would happen to my mother but I felt quite anxious when my eldest daughter was 14 and I was the same age that my mother was widowed at. To be fair the anxiety may also have been related to menopause, COVID and the fact that on that birthday I was told by doctors that my mother, who already had dementia, had terminal cancer, but the age significance was a big thing for me. I didn’t want history repeating itself. My granny was widowed in her early 40’s. I think I’ll lose that worry a bit when my children are out of their teenage years. Losing a parent, at any age always leaves a mark, it’s different for us all.

Yes, they discovered cancer cells in one out of 25 lymph glands removed with the rest, hence the chemo. I already knew about the tumour that was surgically removed.I am so sorry you have had to suffer this ignorant idiot.

What it seems to me is that Kate went into hospital for some fairly urgent abdominal surgery but not emergency. It had to be relatively urgent because of the engagement and foreign visit cancellations. Non-emergency but quickly planned. Whatever was the problem, it wasn't believed to be cancer at that stage. Whatever was removed was sent to the pathology lab and cancer cells were discovered, leading to chemotherapy. It may be related to the original problem or not. If she wanted cosmetic surgery, she would have had it done during the summer holidays with no cancellations.
Similar to Charles who went into hospital for a routine prostate procedure and, while the doctors were in there, they found cancer elsewhere (as it was stated not to be prostate cancer though that is common in elderly men who are likely to die with it rather than of it as it tends to be the slow type in them), leading to his current treatment, whether chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
Yes. I’ve a name that can be shortened and some family members call me by my full name, some by a shortened name and some by an initial.
Is that the Cheshire Cat’s grin behind Kate?
I also had 18 weeks of chemo after surgery for stage 3 bowel cancer. It was in 2 lymph nodes hence the advice. We called it ‘mop up chemo’
I'm probably alone in thinking this, but I think it's strange that both Kate and Charles have not revealed what type of cancer they have. They are under absolutely no obligation to do so of course, but in terms of raising awareness, I feel it would benefit individual causes and create discussion - i.e. if she has Ovarian cancer - which is very rarely found early due to misunderstanding of symptoms.
I'm not a Royalist - more of a Republican - but I wish them both well and wouldn't wish cancer on anyone.

I think it is because if they tell what type and stage they have people will speculate at their chances. Catherine has very small children who she has to protect. Maybe they will tell it someday ....
Yes that is what I thought too. I think revealing it leaves them open to all sorts of speculation, also to other cancer patients with the same sort.
Doesn't Charles have prostate cancer? I had assumed that but not sure why.
I don't blame them for keeping the specifics private. I feel it's enough to say cancer. If they said the type people would only demand more information of the stage etc and fuel more speculation rather than stemming it.
That’s the one type of cancer which they’ve said it’s not, could be any others though
No, they said it wasn't prostate cancer when they made the announcement.
Also, when I was having chemo, the steroids actually made my skin look amazing! I lost the bags under my eyes and laughter lines went too.
Almost any device these days employ some form of filter. I don't see her putting on any weight but just so you know steroid does that. And cancer treatment may include doses of steroids.
