URL: Kate Middleton reveals cancer diagnosis |
|
The Princess of Wales is being treated for cancer, she announced tonight in a video message.
The future queen is currently undergoing a course of chemotherapy that started in February, Kensington Palace announced. Kate, 42, was admitted to hospital on January 16 for "major abdominal surgery", which has been confirmed as successful. At the time of her operation it was thought that her condition was non-cancerous, as no tests had confirmed the presence of cancer. However, post-operative tests confirmed that cancer had been present.
In an emotional and heartfelt televised statement to the world confirming her diagnosis, recorded in Windsor on Wednesday, Kate spoke of "an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family". But in a sign of her incredible bravery, the princess issued a message of hope for those also facing their own battle, saying: "For everyone facing this disease, in whatever form, please do not lose faith or hope. You are not alone."

Cancer is always devastating diagnosis. However, since having gone through something like this myself, the hardened me bristles when she says "For everyone facing this disease, in whatever form, please do not lose faith or hope. You are not alone." For, not everyone has the finances or the access to high quality cancer care and treatment like she does. It is easier to say to not lose hope when money is no hinderance. Because the lack of finances, and access to health insurance/quality care are what contributed to digging our deep financial hole. True, I came through it ok, but the aftermath of medical bills is not the 'hope' one is seeing, as isn't the annual checks to see if you are still clear - the thought has not left my mind to the 'what if it returns'......and all the ramifications thereafter.

I hear you..hubby has been fighting cancer for 15 yrs now. We're lucky, he has the VA or I dont' know what we would do financially. We're not rich.
In the beginning, I was working three jobs while he couldn't work (took 4 yrs for his SocSecDisability to finally be approved at a hearing).
I'm glad you pulled through Hierophant, sorry your financial burden was large. Cancer and the treatment is hard enough without adding in the $$.
One of the reasons I started getting interested in politics is health care. Some improvements have been made, but many more changes are still needed to make sure people can have the dignity of care without losing everything they own.
And, as for Princess Kate, God be with her and the kids as they navigate this. She doesn't have the burden of the medical expenses, but still has all the burden of the indignities cancer brings and fear it can cause when that first diagnosis comes through.
The press needs to leave them alone now. I know she's a princess and all of that, but she's also a human being and needs to have some human dignity of at least privacy with her family in all of this.
hugs.

King Charles is well aware of the pitfalls and limitations of modern medicine, and that alternative therapies has a definite place in any clinical regimens.
GOD SAVE THE KING
