Britain's Princess of Wales has revealed she is undergoing treatment for cancer in an emotional video message and told others battling the disease 'you are not alone'. Kate spoke about the 'huge shock' of the medical development and how her family have experienced an 'incredibly tough couple of months' and at times her voice cracked with feeling.
The princess was admitted to hospital for abdominal surgery on 16 January and at the time her condition was thought to be non-cancerous but tests after the successful operation found cancer, the type of which has not been disclosed. The future queen began a course of 'preventative chemotherapy' late in February but is said to have a positive mindset for her recovery and is in good spirits, describing herself as 'well and getting stronger every day'. King Charles, who is also being treated for cancer, and the queen have been told about the state of the princess' health. Speaking in the video message recorded on Wednesday in Windsor, the princess said: 'In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful. 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.
