Kate, Princess of Wales, reveals she is having treatment for cancer
Sky News ^ | 3/22/2024

Kate, Princess of Wales, has revealed she has been diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing preventative chemotherapy. In a personal message, the 42-year-old said planned abdominal surgery in January was successful and it was initially thought her condition was non-cancerous. But tests after the operation found cancer had been present, she said, adding: "This of course came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family."

I have a Korean friend who had extremely thin hair as a child. Her father shaved her head, and then the hair grew in amazingly thick - she’s about 70 now, and it’s STILL thick. I think it’s the shaving and then growing back that does it.

Sad to hear this. One of the few in that family with class and character, atleast from the outside. A true princess in looks and character.

Her husband also seems to have a good head on his shoulder - no drama, no weirdness (atleast none in public yet). He seems be the only one who inherited some good genes from queen grandma.

Now I hope all those nincompoops who have been harassing Kate for not showing up in public would leave her alone to deal with her crisis. Regardless of her status, she is a wouman, a mother, a wife. They do have their personal life too. Bunch of hyenas hounding her for not making an appearance. The idiots need to be horsewhipped. Similar bunch of hooligans caused the accident that killed Diana.

I was a single parent with 4 children when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Two of my children were in college, the other two in high school. I chose a very aggressive form of chemo because it gave me a better shot at survival. All my hair fell out and my hand and my arm swelled like a balloon. It was tough. I’ve made it to 30-year mark so even if it comes roaring back, I am happy for the time I had. I am greedy though. First, I prayed just let me see my daughter get married, now it would be nice to see my granddaughters get married. I thank God every day he brought me this far.

That’s what I’m thinking. Cancer rates among younger people are skyrocketing these days.

The Princess Royal and Lady Louise seem to have inherited ‘good genes’. The latter even looks like the late Queen.

That is an amazing story. Genetics plays such a huge role in all of this.

For example, if I get cancer I will be in big trouble due to genetic problems with drugs they use for it. So far I have been lucky.

Every day that you have is a gift. Had you not chose the most aggressive form of treatment you might not be here today.

"They make mistakes, costly ones. I’m not sure how this happened. Don’t they do further testing before surgery? No “Oops, my bad” for me."

They found a tumor in the left calf of my sister-in-law two years ago. They operated, and found they had to dig deeper as the tumor was more deeply rooted than they thought. After she got home, the wound was leaking so badly that they had to send a nurse with a pump, to take all the crap out. She had to do it so many times a day, and this went on for weeks.

They had done a biopsy at the time of the surgery, but she wasn't told until months later that they found cancer cells, so she had to go through a series of radiation treatments on the leg. At some point they grafted tissue from her groin area to replace what they'd had to remove during the surgery. And after a year, the wound still hadn't healed. She even went to a wound clinic, and they told her to put gauze pads, and keep it wrapped up with elastic sport bands. It wasn't until she was hospitalized for another issue over a year later, that the doctors there took scans of the whole leg, and found a spot of cellulitis in her left thigh that was likely contributing to the wound not healing. They put her on an antibiotic, which is what she should have likely been on from the time of the surgery, and the wound finally healed properly. They do still have to keep an eye on the thigh, to make sure the cellulitis doesn't come back, but at least she doesn't have a constantly weeping wound to contend with.

I hope and pray for the best for her. That said, I wonder if this had anything to do with the Covid jabs.

“Turbo cancer from the vaxx.”

It can be non-turbo cancer.. The vaxxx weakens the immune system of many people. To where they get a cancer that they would have skated by on.

The more C19 vaxxxx and boosters you get. The more you are weakening your immune system. Pfizer stock is half of what it was. Because no one is getting their evil C19 MRNA vaxxx

I take 1x 12mg Ivermectin a week for anti-cancer post vaxx. Seems to be working. Lost a good friend to turbo cancer last August. Fine in June, dead in August.

Kate, Princess of Wales....... Her being away from Royal duties and with all the hub bub about this and her. I never expected cancer to be the reason. I really am surprised. She always looked healthy as a horse and happy with her three children.

Is this only coming out because of that security issue at the London Clinic...?

I wish her the best but if it turns out bad I hope William doesn’t make the same mistake Paul McCartney did and marry a monopod bitch.
