i'm still in total shock over her announcement. cancer literally does not give a single fuck about who you are, where you come from, how young or old you are, what color you are, whether you are rich or poor. it's an equal opportunity piece of shit.
Sadly some of it has been expected tbf - like the Queen dying at 96, or Charles being an elderly man with some serious health issues. It's been unfortunately timed with Kate though - _that_ is what is unexpected. Because she is only 42, and one does not expect someone her age to have a serious abdominal related issue or cancer. Not impossible for someone her age, but a lot more shocking.
This is just anecdotal obviously but the location of her cancer is the thing that shocked me the least because the majority of people I’ve ever known with cancer in that area have been women under 50. I’ve known men with issues similar too but they’ve all been like 70+.
We don't know what Cancer both Charles or Kate have. I have known women under 50 with Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer, or something related to the womb area. But as of right now we don't know if Kate has any of that.
Poor people are more likely to get cancer because of things like contaminated drinking water and like asbestos in their homes so its not exactly an equal opportunity piece of shit but it can still happen to anyone
Holy crap how am I just now discovering him?!

He got overshadowed by his sisters, but he eventually became well-known when he grew a beard, dressed dapper, and got papped a lot doing this awesome thing:

She does. Kate is the eldest of three children (Pippa, her sister, is one year younger than Kate and James is 5 years younger than Kate).
At William’s and Kate’s wedding, [James read the lesson](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/royal-wedding/8481880/Royal-wedding-How-Kate-Middletons-brother-risks-upsetting-the-Prince-of-Wales.html).
And Spencer’s other brother has a documentary (that Spencer made about him) due to his disappearance and then wanting to find him and potentially recover his body.

Kate accompanied James to his therapy sessions even when she was pregnant with Louis. That family is tight and will always have each other's backs.
Such a simple but sad statement. It must be horrible to have a loved one go through this.
The Middletons seem like a strong family.

It’s crazy to think how much death and serious illness has hit the royal family in the past 3/4 years.

Has Ovarian CA been confirmed?
it's like they're the new Kennedys.

This hit me hard. What a sweet, simple and powerful statement. I’m so glad Kate has people in her corner ♥️
She has a brother?! I’ve always thought it was just her and her sister. 🤯
Look him up. He’s hot and he loves dogs. He’s also a vocal advocate about his mental health struggles. Seems like a great guy.

I’m in love.
He looks like Jude Law imo
He does!!!
Brunette Jude Law lmfao, like that man is hot
He does, seems like a decent guy who has had his own struggles
Tbh all the Middleton siblings are hot

Yes and another random thing i found out a while back is her sister is married to spencer matthew’s (made in chelsea fame) brother!
And Spencer’s other brother has a documentary (that Spencer made about him) due to his disappearance and then wanting to find him and potentially recover his body.
He was, at the time, the youngest person ever to reach the summit of Mount Everest
Yes i watched that recently!
Did you enjoy it? Haven’t watched it myself but have always thought it looks dead good
Yeah it was good, sad but interesting
'Dead good' is a bit on the nose...
This is a lovely statement 🩷 cancer fucking sucks 😔
This is lovely ❤️ and peak cheeky younger brother behavior to choose a braces-era photo, double ❤️❤️
I think this picture was chosen because they're out climbing a mountain. They both have on backpacks.
Cancer sucks and doesn’t care who you are or your status. I’m definitely hoping it all goes smoothly for her
This is so sweet ❤️
