Catherine, Princess of Wales, Has Cancer
nytimes.com

Catherine, Princess of Wales, has been diagnosed with cancer and has begun chemotherapy, she announced in a video message on Friday, in which she described the past two months as “incredibly tough for our entire family.”

It comes after a period of intense uncertainty about the health of Catherine, who underwent abdominal surgery in January and largely disappeared from public view as she tried to recuperate.

Like the king, Catherine, 42, did not specify what kind of cancer she has, but asked the public and news media to respect her desire for privacy.

Yup I'm British and I can't stand the whole concept. I'm a republican (don't freak out Americans, that just means I want Britain to be a republic without a monarchy).

Yeah i want a free Australia unfortunately until all the old people die it wont happen

Seems to be a common theme for a lot of the big world issues, honestly.

Lol. A free Australia would mean fixing your government not whining about the monarchy.

the issue is that particular demographic is constantly being renewed

As an American, I can tell you that we don't know how to not freak out, and we're liable to shoot you for asking us not to.
