Good to hear she’s making progress.

It was a gastric surgeon who performed the operation so not a hysterectomy. More likely she has had a stoma, either permanent or not.

Bowel problems are prevelant in people who have restricted diets from an early age.

Not over sure it's a Hysterectomy, too long a recovery.
Discussing with medical chums, could be more like a Bowel op?
She's seems to have got thinner in last year or so. What ever it is hope she's okay now.

You do not needd to be old to have a hysterectomy. Women in their 20s and 30s sometimes need them.

I had assumed she had had a hysterectomy, given the timingsinvolved. Though she isn't that old, is she

I’m glad she’s getting better. Its amazing how people think women who have had a c section have it easy and yet abdominal surgery for anything else is taken seriously. Not a dig at Kate, just an observation.

Our schools don’t break up until next week. It has confused me as the rest of the country seem to have broken up.

Well I should hope so. Well timed with the kids off school!

Yes it is reported that catherine , william and the children have joined the king at sandringham
.............................

And, in a clear sign of her improvement, she was able to join her husband, Prince William, and their three children as they set off yesterday morning for a half-term holiday on the Sandringham estate in Norfolk, where the King is also convalescing.
