Even the Royals Have Hysterectomies

When you see all the Pomp and Circumstance that surrounds the British royals, it’s hard to imagine that they would be troubled by the same kinds of things that bother you and me.

Not so, of course. For instance, recently the British press reported that Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall had made a full recovery after a “routine hysterectomy” on March 5.

The Duchess spent a week in hospital and was advised to rest and avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for at least a month.

Six weeks later, Camilla “strolled for hours with a wooden crook for support” on an eight-mile country walk on the royal Scottish estate of Balmoral.

We wish her a continued strong recovery.
