Mikey1874 Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Just now, Tommy Brown said: Reporter outside the Palace saying people are now turning up at the gates. These people are mentally ill. BBC (with a lot of other big news stories going on just now) covered it as breaking news on 6pm bulletin. Until 6.30 'a few other stories'. There will be hour long special programmes all over tv. It's probably going by the reports relatively minor and hopefully successfully treated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francis Albert Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Over 25 minutes of BBC news and no sign of an end. The news content lasted a couple of minutes at most.

highlandjambo3 Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Ok, so the news is now regurgitating the same stuff they showed earlier on in the program. Probably filling in time whilst they get their next punter wheeled in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JG_1874 Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 A very terrifying disease regardless of creed colour or religion, no one is exempt be it family, friend's or yourself. The NHS have been thankfully since the King was in hospital as it has played on people’s minds who have in turn gone for a check up as they’ve thought something was wrong. Personally speaking i had Thyroid Cancer which took just over 1 1/2 before it could be removed due to complications with my heart & COPD, it was the longest most horrible wait Ive ever endured, thankfully it’s removed and all clear , the fun part is I have a 4 cut along my throat and get some funny looks I sometimes wind people up and tell them I’m a mad raj and someone cut it…… (dark humour I know) My thoughts are with anyone going through any kind of medical issues, we are all human and deal with things differently god bless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maple Leaf Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 As heir to the throne for most of his life, I expect that he's been getting very good health care. If so, they've likely detected the disease at an early stage. I would think that his chances of survival will be very high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartgarfunkel Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Best wishes to King Charlie fighting this ***** of a disease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cade Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Cancer is a horrible condition and several people I know have expired from it. 1,000 other people in the UK will have gotten the same diagnosis at the King today, 1,000 more will get the bad news tomorrow, and 1,000 more will be diagnosed with cancer every day after that. As a public figure, the King having had the diagnosis may prompt more people to come forward with telling symptoms and get themselves checked. And that can only be a good thing. The earlier you are diagnosed, the more likely you are to have a positive outcome. Or it may prompt more people to donate to cancer research charities so we can work towards curing more people or even prevent or eliminate it entirely. And that can also only be a good thing. Yes, we can argue that if Charlie and his family paid taxes on their billions then the NHS would be able to treat more people, but that's for another time. As a human being, I wish him well.

kila Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 A disease that regardless of class or wealth we are at some risk of. Here's hoping we're ever closer to the holy grail. Wish him all the best regardless of how I feel about royalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
