It is nearly one and a half years since Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales became cancerous. There is no need to mention that her family has been undergoing an extremely difficult time, but, fortunately, she is in the process of full recovery now.
Naturally, it does not imply that Kate continues working on a full-time basis. A revelation has now been made in her life after cancer remission and it is said to have a significant effect in her day to day life.
In March last year, royal fans went into shock over the diagnosis of cancer revealed to Kate Middleton. The Princess of Wales had had an abdominal surgery in January earlier that year and retired out of the public life to attend to her cancer treatment. People remained limited with not knowing how she was and where she is for a long time.
The notorious faked Mother Day photo, of which Kate subsequently apologized, did little to stem the rumors of conspiracy theories of her not doing well, or in fact, dead. However, she was lucky enough to overcome it. Last year, in September, the princess published an emotional video in which she explained that she was healthy and out of cancer chemotherapy.
Kate said in the video, as the summer ends, and she cannot describe how relieved she is about finally completing her chemotherapy treatment.
She followed up by saying that it had been a very rough year and that, life as we know it may just change in the blink of an eye. In the meantime, Princess of Wales defined the turbulent waters of cancer, assuming that it is “complicated, frightening, and unpredictable.”
It also has the humility in that it puts you up close and real with your personal weaknesses, in a light you have never thought of before and with it, a different outlook on life as a whole, Kate continued.
Kate Middleton gets a new outlook of life with cancer
Since then the princess has been present at more events and her daily royal duties are back. Having said that Kate is proceeding at a very slow pace not to rush back to her previous life and some of the insiders have even hinted that she will lead life in a very different way going forward.
Royal correspondent Rebbeca English also referred to the sources that suggested that William and Kate have received a whole new outlook on life in a column published by the Daily Mail, with the royal journalist writing: the trauma has left the Princess of Wales as a changed person. Besides, one source also dropped the bombshell announcement that Kate will not follow the same schedule as her in the times before her diagnosis.
Cancer also affects how you look at things, and one can see that in the decisions they have made this last year, family and their children remain the center of their universe, a source told English.
Both Their Royal Highnesses take their role, service and making their platform a good one seriously. But what they are doing is how they can find a balance between themselves as parents and being the Prince and Princess of Wales.”
Another source said: everyone is turning over the dial.
One of Kate Middleton close friends came to the conclusion: According to the words of Catherine herself, she is expecting the future with hope and a new attitude to life. Also, she has had no other option than to step back and pay attention to herself which invariably has caused her self-evaluation in regards to their priorities.”
It is so surprising!
In January, Kate went to the hospital where she was treated in an emotional visit. The Princess of Wales appeared at the Royal Marsden Hospital in the western side of London where she thanked the staff there, in addition to meeting other cancer patients. She addressed them on this so-called harsh treatment but she told them that there is some light there at the end of that tunnel.
It is very difficult… It is so surprising… All asked me, keep a positive attitude, it makes a world of difference, and that is what Kate told me to a lady who underwent chemotherapy.
You imagine that the treatment is over, and you can get back on track and start normal life, but it is still a challenge.The words completely go away. And he realizes that as a patient, yes, there are side effects about treatment, but really there are more long-term side effects.
Simultaneously, Kate told the audience that she was remission-based, which according to the explanation on Cancer Research UK is a person who shows no sign of cancer in the course of treatment.
It takes time to adapt to a new normal as we all understand the happenings after a given diagnosis of cancer. Kate however wrote in a social media post that she is looking forward to a bountiful year ahead.
And she continued: I sincerely thank everyone who walked beside William and my quite unobtrusively in supporting us to overcome it all. We could not have wished more,” she wrote as a way of thanking the hospital due to the “excellent care they received.”
The stern awakening of Kate Middleton towards cancer recovery
As it has been said, Kate has been present to a greater number of royal events during the past couple of months. During Trooping the Colour she appeared with her family, though she was not spotted at Royal Ascot.
Why so? A new report in the Daily Mail shows the princess to be quite strict on the selection of the outings that she would require to attend by the behavior she shows. Kate has been making a gradual comeback to the world but she ensures that she gets the correct balance in her life.
A source revealed to the Daily Mail that she has become very cautious in figuring out what she needs to be and what not. People forget that even when they do not see her in the streets she is extremely hands-on behind the curtain with the team in the office. She has her initiatives to undertake like her initiative concerning her early years. It is an obligation of the HRH throughout her life.
There was another source, which stated that Kensington Palace must possess the things called as flexiility when it comes to the calendar of Kate Middleton. Whether that will result into an even busier Kate Middleton in future remains to be seen.
