Okay. |
Why do you have trouble believing it? Because she isn't bald? Because women don't get cancer in their forties? Because she doesn't "look" sick? |
DP. She does look sick, or looks like she was sick. She looks aged, which is to be expected. |
Just wanted to chime in as I have some personal experience. I think her focus was on survival and her family and she needed her privacy and didn't want to be pitied. Now that she has reached a milestone she is ready to thank the hospital and give back. I strongly suspect she will eventually disclose the cancer and become a strong advocate and donator, but she has not met the 5-year mark-another major milestone. Give her time. Once she feels confident in her recovery and health and has taken time to process it all I think she will make a big difference that can potentially save lives by getting more people to get screened early enough. She has looked great through it all because she has a team to help her. That doesn't mean she wasn't ill. |
Thank you to the posters who always patiently explain preventative chemo in these threads. |
I feel for her. She is probably very scared. I think she had ovarian cancer. I am about her age and had cancer a few years ago. Not fun. That said, her PR team is shockingly bad. They caused a lot of problems. I would fire them. |
Because their expenses are heavily scrutinized, the BRF pays in prestige more than in financial compensation. So they have a very limited pool of potential employees, either very young people at the beginning of their career or not-so-young people who can afford to be paid in prestige. IOW, not the best of the best. |
I disagree. I think it was breast cancer. |
I think so too. She aged overnight which makes me think sudden menopause. I wish her the best. Doesn't matter how rich and famous one is, having small kids and cancer is terrifying. |
It was found after abdominal surgery. She probably went to have a cyst removed and it turned out to be cancer. |
I think the RF doesn't have a clear "goal" too. Everytone is branched off with their own ideas in how things should go. No one wants to work under that kind of environment. |
I think they lied about the abdominal surgery to cover up breast cancer. Maybe she had a mastectomy and reconstruction. Ovarian cancer is hard to detect in early stages. |
I think she had surgery for Crohn's or IBD (conditions she's long been rumored to have) and they discovered unexpectedly she had colon cancer. |
That was discovered during abdominal surgery? |
I don’t think there was abdominal surgery to begin with. That was so vague and obviously a lie and easier to get away with a month recovery story. She didn’t want to share her breast cancer diagnosis and reconstruction story - that is her right. I think she had a routine mammogram which starts at 40 and discovered something. |
