The Princess of Wales released a poignant and moving video to mark World Cancer Day, less than two years after her own abdominal surgery that led to a cancer diagnosis. In the message, which features film footage from a visit to a cancer treatment center, the princess said “my thoughts are with everyone who is facing a cancer diagnosis, undergoing treatment, or finding their way through recovery.”
Princess Kate’s voice was notably emotional, as she continued by saying, “cancer touches so many lives, not only patients but the families, and friends, and caregivers who walk beside them.” The Princess of Wales has often spoken about the effects that cancer diagnosis and treatment has not only on the patient, but also on their families and friends.
