Yes I know that. PP answered as if her view was definitive. |

Are you a Brit living in DC? I'm shocked by the posts from people who seem to be British. Is DCUM so popular that you have some sort of alert over there that tells you all when someone has posted about the royal family? |

Family member had this and was in the hospital for 4-days. |

There are 700,000 Brits living in the US. DCUM posters are from all over the US. |

Another guess. |

| Should be interesting if/when they reveal more about what happened. |

Many of us aren't even in the US. I'm not. That's the neat thing about the Internet. |

It is early days. And the British press are brutal (as in ruthless scum). |

Yes, all of us receive notifications whenever any member of the RF is mentioned online. Some of us then can join threads and hype up the RF. We receive a special edition slice of Camilla's fruit cake by ROYAL MAIL Special Delivery soon afterwards ( it's like FedEx but obv much much much worse as all things unAmerican are) 😋 It's true, the USA is great. I read Steinbeck, Salinger, Wolfe, Walker with pleasure. I drive the wide open roads. I photograph the incredible flora and fauna. I see the giant houses and cars. I visit the Plymouth Colony where the Mayflower landed and the pilgrims tried to survive. I look at the map of the US to see how many olace names I can spot which have Btitish origins. Are you American? What does it mean to you to be American? Do you mean it's where you have residency, domicile, a passport, birthplace? I find it strange when nosey ppl are trying to drill me 'where are you from?', when I then ask, what do you mean, they often shout 'well where we're you BORN?'. I say, well, if I tell you I was born in Ecuador, does it mean I'm Ecuadorian? Like millions, I'm a mix of ancestry from Europe, mostly British and a bit of German. I just am grateful as I said, to live in Britain and have a constitutional monarchy. As for the odd brags about Olympic medals, it would be so much more interesting if the poster had won any. Dunno what all the incorrect stuff about inventions was. An English man invented the jet engine your Boeings and all others use. You are welcome? |

Well yes, of course. How could DCUM (or anyone really) know the actual facts? |

“Planned” tells you nothing. You can have cancer (I hope she does not), with a surgical treatment PLAN. |

| Pure speculation; however, I'm an NP and an in-pt stay that long spells serious; not a threat to mortality; but, a potential need for a complicated and prolonged convalescense. One possibility, diverticular disease requiring a colostomy which should be reversable in time. If complications arise i.e. fistula, malignancy, sepsis, one is looking at a similar if not longer length of hospitalization. Due to her fitness and activity level she will hopefully have a good recovery. |

I had similar and was in the hospital 18 days. So, you know, people are different. |

Oh good, I had not heard that. |

Which has NOTHING to do with Kate Middleton, as she is not an “average British citizen under socialized medicine”. |
