The keys to treatment
The future British queen has decided not reveal what kind of cancer has. Privacy is your right. His video reveals that she is receiving “preventive chemotherapy” treatment, which It started at the end of February. It is in its earliest stage.
He underwent major abdominal surgery on January 16, which was initially thought to be for a “non-cancerous” condition. Naturally, in an operation of these characteristics, a biopsy is performed. Results take at least 10 days. There the disease was detected in the London Clinicthe most exclusive in London.
A prominent oncologist gave insight into what preventive chemotherapy entails. Professor Pat Price, chair of Radiotherapy UK, said the surgery appeared to have removed the cancer. “Sometimes with some tumors, there’s a little bit of concern about whether there’s anything left or whether there’s a risk of it coming back,” she explained. Doctors usually use preventive chemotherapy, generally, in the form of tablets or injections. “This is often administered for a period of four or six months and then it’s over,” he said, and “hopefully, everything will be okay then.”

The White House He wished Kate a full recovery. “Obviously we all heard the terrible news,” said Karine Jean-Pierre, the press secretary. “Our thoughts are with the Duchess of Cambridge and her family and friends during this incredibly difficult time and we certainly wish her a full recovery.”
Kate held the title of Duchess of Cambridge before the king took the throne.
“We certainly wish him a full recovery. And I think it’s important that we respect his privacy, especially right now. I know people will ask if the president has spoken to her or her family.

The world salutes Kate’s courage. No one publicly acknowledges that today the British Royal Family faces one of its deepest and most unexpected survival crises. It will be Anne, Princess Royal, Queen Camilla, and Edward and Sophie, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, who must defend and keep in these hard times, the royal banner.
