2:15Watch: The full video message from the Princess of Wales
The Princess of Wales says she is in the early stages of treatment after a cancer diagnosis.
In a video statement, Catherine says it was a "huge shock" after an "incredibly tough couple of months".
But she sent a positive message, saying: "I am well and getting stronger every day."
Details of the cancer have not been disclosed, but Kensington Palace says it is confident the princess will make a full recovery.
Catherine explains that when she had abdominal surgery in January, it was not known that there was any cancer.
"However tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment," said the princess.
The chemotherapy treatment began in late February. The palace says it will not be sharing any further private medical information, including the type of cancer.

ReplyDeleteThe cancer (lung) was discovered after abdominal surgery in January.
Hogwash!
What CAUSE that abdominal surgery in January?
For a royal household, early health checks r common features. & a cancer marker check can easily detect any early syndrome - not that they couldn't afford it!
"无情最是帝王家"!!
Especially for a commoner backgrounded Kate!
William does have his father's gene. Pity Diana.
Best wishes to the Catherine , Princes of Wales for a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteIgnore the naysayers.
Abdominal surgery could have been for anything. It's not uncommon for doctors to recommend a wider scan e.g.CT and ultrasound to check for other issues...and may discover something else.
Cancer markers can be a useful screening tool, but there is a wide probability for both false negatives (no indication but there is actually cancer) and false positives +( showing cancer markers but there is no cancer)
