Kate spending time with "birth family"

If I had serious cancer I would not spend my remaining time doing dumb events cutting ribbons so more power to Kate if that is what she has chosen. However it seems more likely that she’s having some sort of marital issue since her birth family is either giving or receiving the cold shoulder from her spouse who seems completely fine despite her allegedly being seriously ill.

If I had serious cancer, I could go to the supermarket or park or doctor without anyone taking my photo and selling it to the press.

Maybe she can too. The farmstand Kate looked nothing like her

NP. Whoever is using the term ghoul is using it accurately. It certainly was the first descriptor that sprang to my mind when reading some of these comments.

Ok thanks for letting us know you think you’re using the term correctly

It doesn’t necessarily mean her cancer is more serious.

Agree. The initial announcement said she is going through “preventative” chemo - if she had anything beyond stage 1 cancer, it seems unlikely to have used that phrase. But traditional chemo (compared to the targeted chemo therapies that are thankfully on the rise with various cancers) is very tough on one’s body and spirit.

The initial announcement said her condition was not cancer at all. So much of the verbiage from KP was bungled or confusing from the very beginning. First it was “Routine abdominal surgery” (but nothing about abdominal surgery is routine) with an oddly specific notation that it was not cancer (but nobody said it was) . Then, it’s cancer but preventative chemo. No such thing as preventative chemo. Chemo is difficult and taxing and if it were preventative for cancer, everyone would use that . Then, they mentioned William would take time off because he’s on the “school run”. Another odd term.

Now, the term surrounded by family and only with “birth family” is used.

There is preventative chemo - lots of young women with stage 0/1 breast cancer are given the option because breast cancer in younger women tends to be more aggressive and faster growing. It’s called preventative in the sense that technically surgery should remove all of the cancer because it is early stage, but doing chemo reduces the chance that rogue cancer cells are circulating via lymph nodes that didn’t get picked up in a scan (they’d beed to be forming into a tumor for a scan to highlight them).

Why would she have abdominal surgery for breast cancer? Or they’re using the term “abdominal” very loosely?

I think you make a good point that supports my theory that it’s ovarian or uterine cancer

What if the Spanish journalist was right? Curiously, no lawsuit from KP came about for that wild report about KM and no retraction from the Spanish journalist was ever made

Don’t you know anyone who has gone through chemo? She’s probably bald, including eyebrows and eyelashes gone, possibly gaunt but possibly puffy due to steroids, feels exhausted, nauseous, may have painful mouth and throat sores, GI issues, so on. I certainly can understand why she may not want to be out in public, especially as someone who is constantly photographed and analyzed on her appearance. Geez if people can’t cut this woman a break when she’s going through cancer treatments, I think there’s no hope for humanity.

From preventative chemo she has a years worth of this parade of horribles you listed?

It really is person dependent. But yes, patients getting adjuvant chemotherapy (chemo you get after surgery to mop up any remaining cancer cells) can suffer from long term side effects. It just depends on the person, how their body tolerated the chemo, how healthy they were before chemo, etc.

I posted that, and it was to show there is “preventative chemo,” since several posters said there is no such thing. Breast cancer happens to be the one I know about personally. Likely there is preventative chemo for other cancers as well for similar and/or other reasons.

This thread keeps getting worse and worse. I am stunned that some of you seem to know so little about chemotherapy. Count yourselves lucky.

Chemotherapy side effects would be the same whether it’s being done as a necessity or “preventatively.” What might be different is the number of infusions and (hopefully obviously) the more you have, the worse the side effects cummulate. But maybe she is doing a full course, I don’t know and neither do you.

But say she had surgery on Day Zero, from the biopsy of the tumor discovered chemo was recommended and started it 6 weeks after Day Zero, then had 6 courses of chemo spaced 3 weeks apart. We’re now at 6 months. The side effects don’t disappear immediately, and obviously one’s hair and lashes etc take even longer.

Maybe she also needs to have radiation, which further fatigues you esp if you’ve done chemo.

People on dcum have also speculated for years she might have a GI issue - well that’s likely to flare during chemo since chemo strongest hits rapidly dividing cells like in GI tract.

And last point, ancedotally, my oncologist told me she sees her young patients suffer the worst from side effects, she thinks because they are so used to be go go go (eg, a young mom like Kate) vs older patients may already be at a point of taking it slower.

This is all speculation. But it’s reasonable and possible. I’m always going to err on the side of letting a patient recover in whatever time frame works for them, and I can’t believe how many of you are ready to attack. It’s just sad. What if this was your sister or friend?

Chemo can really be a living hell for some. Let her fight this and heal her own way. Whatever uplifts her is good. She no longer owes the public anything. Her health comes first.

In her video announcing her diagnosis she looked completely fine and supposedly had already started chemo. But now she’s bald and physically decimated behind the scenes? I agree she doesn’t owe the public an appearance but I do think she does owe them silence rather than misinformation i

Hair loss does not start until a couple of weeks in. She has just started treatment at that time. And nobody said she was physically decimated - I wasn’t during chemo - but I was bald and while my wig worked okay for me in public, it wouldn’t cut it for a princess whose appearance is a big part of her brand.

How long does it take to grow shoulder length hair back?

Not all chemo causes hair loss, especially if it’s “preventive”.

There is no such thing as preventative chemo.

You can choose to not look at the thread if it offends you.

Or we can choose to post sane and compassionate posts to combat the crazy and misinformation.

There is no "we". You can choose not to look at thread.

The photo was fake. The video was fake. Pretty sure the “I have cancer” was a Hail Mary bc people can’t argue with you once you pull the cancer card.

It’s crazy that they’re saying she won’t be seen now for THE REST OF THE YEAR.

So wait, do you think she’s dead?
