Princess of Wales says she is undergoing cancer treatment

[Michie]

The Princess of Wales says she is in the early stages of treatment after cancer was found in tests.

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.


The princess's statement 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.

She said she was thinking of all those who have been affected by cancer, adding: "For everyone facing this disease, in whatever form, please do not lose faith or hope. You are not alone."

Kensington Palace, must have a good reason for their confidence in the princess making a full recovery. She's obviously receiving the best care and treatment possible, and being fairly young increases the chances of making a full recovery.

The experts claim that people who are determined to overcome the odds, have a much better chance of recovery than those who sink into despair and give up the fight because they don't think they can win the battle

It will be interesting to see how quickly her treatment will begin compared to the average Briton going through the universal health care of the National Health Service.

Of course we all hope for the best.
