Princess of Wales has left Hospital

Why are people nitpicking about when Kate went home?? Let’s just be glad she is well enough to leave hospital

Her sister is also extremely thin and her mother is slim. I think it's a family trait.

Primrose 53 I wonder if she has had surgery for Crohns disease , a friend of mine who has it is painfully slim and has awful pain . I guess we will never know and she has every right to keep her personal details private , however I am suprised at how concerned I am for her .

She lives in New York lemsip. Why ask if she is hoping Camilla (who is your queen whether you like it or not) can pull some strings? How unnecessary.

yes, unnecessary is your comment also.

Those who choose to work in private care could choose to live
in another country

Speak for yourself Grantanow.

I notice you don't take issue with the points I made about the NHS being denied resources by the private sector.

Headlines in press, mp in a bed in NHS hospital or Princess of Wales in a bed in NHS hospital , get your cameras out

Speak for yourself Grantanow.

PS. No need to commend my high principles. I wouldn't have a choice.

Absolutely. Most of us don't have a choice. Those who think the private sector takes a load off the NHS are being fooled. The consultants working part time or full time in the private sector (having trained in the NHS) are denying the NHS trained senior staff. The private sector is parasitic on the NHS. And being profit-making it charges accordingly so that when the NHS pays for patients to get private treatment it is sending taxpayers' money to shareholders. There are a few senior politicians who have been treated in NHS hospitals over the years and their security needs were presumably met without fuss. Many of us would have a higher regard for the Royals if they took their turn with the rest of us.

The Queen’s niece said she is having surgery

As someone who suffered from endometriosis, I hope the publicity helps someone.

Women shouldn’t have to suffer in silence with painful gynaecology problems.

in the news today; the queen's niece reveals she's sufferering an agonising and unbearable medical condition! is she hoping camilla can pull some strings.
further reading says it endometriosis

daily express too.

not my queen.

PS. I hope when she does appear in public again she has put on a bit of weight because she was looking painfully thin before. There can be few women in the world who could wear those tight fitting coat dresses she favours as every bit of spare flesh is visible, but often she doesn’t fill the coat out.

I think this goes to show that senior royals are more than capable of being private and need not be paparazzi fodder .

Well done Prince William for keeping his family members safe and away from prying eyes.

Good luck to the Princess of Wales. For all it's luxury, I wouldn't want their lives with it's lack of privacy and endless criticism.
I had a knee replaced in a private hospital, on the NHS, and cataract surgery in another. Not my choice, but I would never turn it down.

I hope she recovers speedily and well. She will have the best of attention and the love of her husband and beautiful children. I had a hysterectomy on 22nd January, sent home on 24th January and taking each day as it comes. Some good, some bad.

I hope she recovers well as I really like her. I imagine though there will be a lot more help than what we are being told. Just Nanny Maria and the Middletons ….. I don’t think so.

Can’t imagine how it would feel to rest in beautiful surroundings, eat and drink the best of everything, have medical staff on hand for the smallest concern and just totally chill out until after Easter. Good for her!

My husband had radiotherapy for prostate cancer in a private hospital on the NHS. The consultant said the NHS ones were overloaded. He has also been a patient in The London Clinic where Charles and Catherine were treated. He gave his bone marrow to a a lady in another country through The Anthony Nolan Trust. They paid for his stay.

I would just say that the Royal family are hardly the only people to pay for private health care. We've had cases in the past of foreign royalty,especially from the Middle East, taking entire floors in our private hospitals. I certainly don't see any advantage in them blocking up NHS hospitals.

*And King Charles too.
Obviously the hospital is having a clear out!*

Perhaps they need the beds

Thanks Callistemon21 you are quite right, I agree, growstuff misinterpreted my question.

It has probably been raised before, but would one of you who are against private health on principle, remain true to your principles and refuse treatment at a private hospital when offered by the NHS to you or a close relative as a patient who has waited, in pain for a long time.

To those who would still refuse treatment at a private hospital I commend your high principles.

Yes, I would refuse treatment in a private hospital for the simple reason I couldn't afford it. I'd just have to suffer.

That wasn't the question as I read it.

would one of you who are against private health on principle, remain true to your principles and refuse treatment at a private hospital when offered by the NHS?

I think lexisgranny is asking if your principles would mean you would refuse treatment/surgery at a private hospital if the NHS was sending you there and funding it?

I know several people who have had operations eg tonsillectomy, cataract operations, hip replacements at private hospitals but paid for by the NHS.

ie the NHS uses the private sector when necessary.

Would you refuse the offer?

PS. No need to commend my high principles. I wouldn't have a choice.
