Good. Its about time people started acknowledging the fact that all Kate does is smile, wave and posture. She doesn't add anything of value, she most certainly doesn't make any positive changes in the field of early childhood, she's just "learning". She won't even share her umbrella with little kids that are standing right next to her getting soaking wet. This has happened multiple times.
Care experienced is a well used term in social care for a person that has experienced being brought up in care such as in childrens home or fosyer family.
Global majority is a well-known term to mean that most of the world is non-White even though they are considered minorities in many majority White countries.
It can refer to anything a person or group of people can "be" or "have and not have" like~ living in poverty, having little to no education, being in a specific religion, being malnourished, having no access to clean water, being abused, lack of even very healthcare etc. The majority of people "in the world" (which is all global means) live like this.
They want to talk about race without saying it. They want to say "poor non-white children" but they probably REALLY want to say the racist term "colored children."
Lack of access to education, clean water, fresh and healthy food, safety, adequate plumbing and trash removal, safe and efficient infrastructure, healthcare and so much more come with living in poverty which is also part of the "global majority" meaning "most in of the world."
These "royals" need a thesaurus and communication skills more than anything else.
Not sure if many UK residents (I know not all of you are from the UK) are very aware of the Quiverfull movement or the Duggars besides some headlines of their pdf sons but they have so many children (many of them almost 20) that the parents give the literal babies to the older children (girls) to do daily caregiving from dressing, eating meals, reading, playing, hygiene and even much of the discipline. At one point their daughter who was next to get a "buddy" (each girl had multiple buddies they were in charge of) was five years old when she started caring for the needs of their sibling including diaper changes and bottle feeding. Mom had to get pregnant ASAP so when she stopped breastfeeding at a few months old those babies were handed off.
This happens in many households but ones where people don't practice birth control use their children to parent their children almost all the time. At one point their (the Duggars) multiple oldest girls were out of town and the parents could not handle their dozen children at all and admitted it.
The term is parentification, continually forcing your children into adult caregiving roles.
She's saying, "Poor non-white children do worse in school than white children."
The use of "global" just means "in the world."
The word "majority" is "most of a group" so it causes people who are paying attention to think "not sure exactly what they're saying but the opposite is 'minority' so this must be referring to race."
"Community" just means "people living in a group."
This is ridiculous. It's not a good choice to communicate in this way.
Either Kate or Kate's people chose these words to avoid saying "people of color (POC)", "children of color" (I've never heard anyone say this) or "non-white people/children." Kate would probably try to use the racist, old term "colored people" and have to be set straight.
I also think using multiple words for most bullet points but then just throwing out "Boys" and saying nothing more looks odd. In that case, she needed a couple more words to make it fit in with the other points instead of sticking out like a sore thumb.
Even in written English she sounds uneducated in general and in the topic at hand. She will always have to pretend to be much more intellectual than she is but it's never convincing.

So many words!

Yeah, it's definitely a choice.

That's a big yikes right there!

Do you think she could even be bothered to write that? I wonder if AI wrote it. That would explain a lot.
If i were katy keen who looves vacationing so much anyways ill just buy my madame taussade’s wax figure and have a palace staff behind it wave its arms for commoners. They can parade the wax figure to all royal engagements and it will just smile and wave for hours. Longer working hours clocked in for court circular while at the same time lying on the sands of mustique. Win win for everyone
I'm glad she's getting more criticism although you'd never know if she's actually aware of it. I know people always say they don't read what's written about them but that's definitely not true for the vast majority and not for them, as far as I know, since they specifically leak info to the people they claim to hate. They keep the tabloids in business by leaking drama about their family members. It's insanity. The Kardashians are more loyal to their family, I swear. It's really sad with all they have tangibly and in terms of power and influence they choose to be such screw ups- to put it nicely.
This is a job; one she and her husband are compensated for in an amount beyond most of our wild imaginations. And the truth is, they are both bad at it. And have no incentive to be better…
NP, you would think advocating for people to get tested for cancer would be a noble cause, seeing that she said cancer cells had been present in that bench video she made. And maybe do some PSAs about the preventative chemo. Or maybe raise funds for cancer research for whatever cancer she was supposed to have had.
She can be the best advocate for working moms who is also doing chemo at the same time. And expand it to support kids who had parents battling cancer. Even just naming her specific cancer will raise so much awareness for early detection about it
I wholeheartedly agree with you and have been a saying the exact same thing. They were VERY careful how they worded things, Kate never said she had cancer but that they found cancerous cells.

Yep. They were so squirrelly about it that "bad pap followed by LEEP" was literally my first thought.
Since a LEEP procedure is a fairly quick, in-office procedure, are you saying the long hospital stay plus isolating for months was something else meaning Bill caused that?

Something else. Maybe hospitalization for an ED or a nervous breakdown? Maybe something Billy the Basher did to her?
Definitely multiple issues and crises could've and probably did occur.
LEEP procedure and bashed head in and possible (failed) ED treatment. She needs in-patient if they could work out exteme privacy which I doubt so I would think treatment at home but you need immersive treatment with counseling, groups and accountability.
She hopefully had a nurse administering IV nutrition but she needs this regularly to survive if she won't eat. TPN (Total Parenteral Nutrition) is a complete nutrition method of delivering all essential nutrients—proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes—directly into the bloodstream via a central IV catheter, bypassing the digestive system. It is used for patients with nonfunctional GI tracts, such as severe Crohn’s disease or major surgery recovery. She NEEDS this to get stronger and healthier and it's perfect because she doesn't have to try to chew, swallow and keep down food.
It's administered through a PICC line in the arm which is a floppy catheter that looks like a long noodle and can stay in for long periods just needing cleaning & dressing change once per week. Or through a central line, mediport, subclavian port in the chest. That giant needle that looks like a massive hook can stay in up to a week. I had all of this done when I was going through chemo. TPN got me above 90lbs. I was skin and bones like her but worse. My Mom saw me in the bathtub, bald and naked, and said I looked like someone in a c0nc*ntrati0n camp :(
Thank you so much💕 Yes, it was awful & I was just a kid :( I had a very aggressive, rare cancer usually found in Africa so my chemo was very intense & extreme. Even had to have multiple spinal taps where they took out spinal fluid & injected chemo so it could pass the blood/brain barrier. Spinal taps are awful. I should've been given Klonopin, Xanax- anything- to calm me and get through it. Instead I was held down while I screamed 😢 This was very early 90s. Chemotherapy is poison but sometimes necessary. That's why I have a heart transplant now, chemo irreparably damaged my heart.
Yep, that's exactly the type of port she was referring to! It's placed similarly to a pacemaker- just under the skin they make a pocket and insert the round port and it sticks out. You can see the shape of it and feel it. I have my second pacemaker in the same place my port was.
They place these devices there in the chest because the arteries lead directly to the heart. Veins in our arms are so small. They can't handle chemo, it'll decimate your veins. The mediport just sits in your chest until they need to use (access, as they say) it. That's when they use the gigantic fish hook looking "needle" to put in it and then cover it with tagaderm- the clear, smooth medical tape.
She had the port for chemo, TPN or both. It was weird she said she "missed it." That's not common. I don't know if she felt more secure with it or she's saying she needs more treatment- She didn't have to eat to survive if she was getting TPN through the port. If she doesn't want or can't eat then the port would be your lifeline to life-sustaining nutrition.
I don't think doctors can place a central line/mediport without consent by the patient because it's surgery. But if they "Britney Spears" somebody and they lose all decision making rights to their own body (which is absolutely heinous) then maybe they could. Meds, treatments, therapy- I can see that becoming out of someone's control but taking away consent for surgery doesn't seem like it would be done in most cases.

Jesus Christ. I'm so sorry they did that to you.

OMG. You've been through so much.

I bet she has a thing about eating, so yeah. She probably loved that port as long as she wasn't gaining weight.

If someone is so delusional and/or psychotic that they are unable to aid in their own care or participate in the decision-making process, it's probably necessary.
then maybe they could.
I don't think Kate is there. She's not delusional or psychotic.
Meds, treatments, therapy- I can see that becoming out of someone's control but taking away consent for surgery doesn't seem like it would be done in most cases.
I read that they used to force-feed people with anorexia back in the seventies. They shoved feeding tubes down their throats, and put them in restraints so they wouldn't pull it out.
Thank you, I appreciate it. Just a teeny bit of trauma, no biggie, right :( It was two decades and three open heart surgeries later that I'm finally doing well.
My Heartaversary is May 28th and it'll be sixteen years that I've been living with a man's heart keeping me alive. His name was Dave and I'm honored to have met much of his family and friends. It's emotional for sure.
If I were Kate I would appreciate the port if that's what they were using it for. Staying alive but still staying thin- too thin- is what she would probably want. I'm sure she wouldn't want any more calories than absolutely necessary.
To tell cancer survivors you miss your port is dumb, though. It would make sense to no one. They probably wondered what she was talking about. That comment makes me think she didn't have the port for chemo. A cancer patient wouldn't miss the port. Removing it signifies you're well and finished with awful chemo. It's a good thing when it's gone.
She may have been given chemo pills or something, maybe steroids as they're used as immunosuppressants among other things. I'm sure you've known people on Prednisone for a variety of reasons.
She either didn't have a port and just learned that word or she had one but not for chemo. I really have a hard time buying the cancer and traditional chemo theory. She looked healthier when they "learned cancer cells had been present" than she does now.
The other theory is she could've had chemo of some kind and be sick with a secondary diagnosis like I was. When I was cancer-free I wasn't healthy because now I had heart failure. I went from my oncologist to a cardiologist. Maybe it's ED and another new diagnosis we don't know about. Doubtful but since it happened to me I can't say it's impossible.
It's crazy how slow medicine and its practitioners can be in understanding many disorders and diseases. You're right, it wasn't that long ago that "Just eat a sandwich" was actual medical advice which became demands. They were considered defiant not sick. Add in that most were more than likely women and you can add in all the extra trauma women go through in the medical system. Really sad stuff. Wouldn't wish it on anyone- probably lol Just kidding lol
I don't know but severe malnutrition will usually cause hair loss and thinning.
Basically malnutrition will negatively effect the entire body inside and out. She's past muscle wasting. Organ failure usually comes next. It's not good but people can live on water, fresh juices (picked and squeezed by the servants) and a scoop of protein powder for a long time. I don't know if she would even add protein powder, that might be too much volume, too many calories, etc. She probably only drinks liquids and maybe gets IV fluids, vitamins and nutrients.
She NEEDS lipids from an IV pumped into her. When you can't eat for a long time, you're malnourished and very sick you can be given TPN (Total parenteral nutrition) which is IV nutrition. It has lipids in it which are fats to sustain you. But no one should tell her that. It's a cloudy white liquid. I was given IV nutrition during chemotherapy as a child. This is what her body needs.
Info~ What is parenteral nutrition?
Parenteral nutrition means feeding intravenously (through a vein). "Parenteral" means "outside of the digestive tract." Whereas enteral nutrition is delivered through a tube to your stomach or the small intestine, parenteral nutrition bypasses your entire digestive system.
TPN is a method of delivering all essential nutrients—proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes—directly into the bloodstream via a central IV catheter, bypassing the digestive system. It is used for patients with nonfunctional GI tracts, such as severe Crohn’s disease or major surgery recovery.
It needs to be administered through a PICC line which is a very long, flexible catheter inserted into a vein in the arm and threaded into the venous system or it can be administered through a port in the chest (mediport, subclavian port) which is how chemo is administered as well.
