The King began "regular treatments" on Monday and will postpone public duties during the treatment, the Palace said. The King, 75, "remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible," it added.

webfact Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 Britain’s King Charles Diagnosed with Cancer at the Age of 75 By Goongnang Suksawat PRESS RELEASE: Britain’s King Charles, who became monarch in September 2022, has been diagnosed with cancer at the age of 75. Buckingham Palace announced on Monday (Feb 5) that he will temporarily step back from public duties to undergo treatment. Despite initial concerns about his potential impact as a monarch, Charles had quietly adapted to his role, maintaining a busy schedule. King Charles, known for his dedication and hard work, has always maintained a rigorous daily exercise routine and avoided lunch. Supporters and critics alike have acknowledged his commitment. Details of royal health are usually private, and there was no indication of his cancer diagnosis when he appeared in public on Sunday, attending church with Queen Camilla. Prince Harry, who has had public disagreements with the royal family, is returning to Britain to be with his father during his illness. As messages of support pour in from world leaders, ordinary Britons express their concern and well-wishes for the king. Charles’ illness has stirred emotions, particularly among those who grew up during Queen Elizabeth’s reign, with many fondly remembering her. The preceding is a press release from the Thai Government PR Department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Carter was diagnosed and treated for brain cancer nine years ago. He announced he was going into hospice care a year ago. And he's still living. Don't know what Charles' cancer is, but getting an extra decade of life seems worth it to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post LosLobo Posted February 6 Popular Post Share Posted February 6 (edited) 31 minutes ago, EVENKEEL said: At age 75 would you start chemo? An honest question. Where does it say King Charles is undertaking chemotherapy? There are many types of cancer treatment including combinations of them: Surgery: This is a procedure in which a surgeon removes cancer from your body. Chemotherapy: This is a type of drug-based therapy that uses drugs to kill cancer cells. Radiation therapy: This is a type of energy-based therapy that uses high doses of radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Hormone therapy: This is a type of therapy that slows or stops the growth of breast and prostate cancers that use hormones to grow. Immunotherapy: This is a type of biological therapy that helps your immune system fight cancer. Targeted therapy: This is a type of drug therapy that targets the changes in cancer cells that help them grow, divide, and spread. Stem cell transplant: This is a type of stem cell-based therapy that restores stem cells that grow into blood cells after they are destroyed by high doses of chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Photodynamic therapy: This is a type of therapy that uses a drug activated by light to kill cancer and other abnormal cells. Hyperthermia: This is a type of heat-based therapy that heats body tissue to as high as 113 °F to help damage and kill cancer cells with little or no harm to normal tissue. Cryoablation: This is a type of cold-based therapy that freezes and destroys cancer cells.

I would start chemotherapy if that was what was needed, and I'm 76, however as @LosLobo has said, there are many options for treating cancer, depending upon the type and location of it. My brother-in-law in Melbourne has just been through a course of chemo for a tumour in his stomach and seems to be handling it very well at the moment, and he is in his mid-80s. I wish him and King Charles III all the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I suspect Harry needs some material for whatever traitorous "tell all" Netflix series he has planned with his privacy seeking, Instagram loving wife. If I was Charles I'd be getting security to frisk him thoroughly for recording devices before meeting him. He can't get his wife to carry it this time as she likely did at the funeral of the Queen. Charles really doesn't need Ginge and Cringe causing the family any more stress. I wonder if they will finally allow him to see his Grandchildren given that he may be incredibly ill, or will they continue to weaponize Merchie and LiliBucks as a tool of manipulation to get what they want from the King? Thank god William was born first. We've really been 'spared' from the gruesome twosome of California. 5 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you care? All you can do is post about other people who also have cancer.

Questioning his heritage was a result of his mother's well documented multiple affairs. Blaming the media for his behaviour is ridiculous. His vitriolic nature was protected from the media by the family until he met the American divorcee who not content with alienating her own sick father encouraged the dim witted Prince to do the same with his. The media didn't make him dress like a Nazi or call his Asian friend "My P**i friend". Unfortunately he met a wrong 'un but didn't have the intelligence to see it. Folie a Deux if ever I saw it. Hopefully King Charles will find the strength to forgive him. He's a very kind soul. Maybe too kind. I can only hope they stop using their children to manipulate him now that he is possibly dying. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't let the pathetic whining of a traitorous failed chat show host who she once had the good sense to spurn, and for which he has never forgiven her, fool you into thinking she is somehow thought of as her step mother in law was back in the day when her adultery became common knowledge.

Regardless of who did what, his heritage was publicly questioned, his choice of wife was publicly questioned. His choice of wife and colour of their children was, unconfirmed, discussed by members if his family. He chose to fight back and give them a them a two fingered salute. Just as any other child, brother, grandson....would do. With regards to fancy dress at a student gathering...well..
