I admit I think the video was a bit twee, but the words weren’t. I do wonder if Catherine was thinking of her children when making the video - and wanted it to be one that they could watch and enjoy/ be a part of.
As someone who also has cancer I found it to be heartfelt. Life does change in a second. I laughed (naively) when I told my husband they we’re testing me for ovarian cancer - lo and behold, it was definitely not a ‘just in case’ test.
Also Catherine may have experienced delays in diagnosis. She may well have another underlying illness that has predisposed her to cancer. Eg: from memory, Ulcerative Colitis (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) lead to bowel cancer, once you’ve had UC for years.
Its possible that a rise in UC symptoms were blamed on stress for a while - by Drs and Catherine. The cancer wasn’t found till pathology results after her operation. It’s not necessarily been a straightforward ‘journey’ from the beginning. Cancer is insidious whether you are rich or not so rich.
