My theory on all the hub-bub on Kate and the LONG recovery is she had to have a temporary ostomy due to that surgery she had. She did not want to do any public appearances with an ostomy bag.
Just my theory.

Along with waste, our ostomy bags carry a great deal of other shit - namely the ostomy stigma- if indeed this is the case…what a grand opportunity for the royals to embrace the possibilities of erasing this stigma ? Wondering if Diana would have considered this? jb

Talking about having an ostomy can be uncomfortable for most people. Still, it's something you can't always avoid.

I just don’t get the fascination with trying to figure out what she has/had. None of our business. Hope she recovers, gets over her cancer and goes on about her life.

No point playing guessing games there's good selection of cancer's it could be just hope it's been caught early and wish her well and hope she makes speedy recovery.
I know people with ostomy's that say they haven't even told there parent's they have one there life there choice.

It not possible to hide my colostomy, too big. Also, I was at church yesterday talking with friends when: Burrrrrap! My stoma decides to imitate a fog horn.

I did wonder about a possible ostomy. Yes, I zoomed in on pictures to see if there was a pouch.
All should have privacy.
It would be nice if someone famous talked about living with an ostomy.
I have told all my relatives but not my grandchildren. They are 2 and 5. The eldest asked me why I always lock the bathroom door. I told her I like to poo by myself. Changing clothes around them is tricky.
Just thinking it would be nice if an ostomy was accepted in our society.

Yes it crossed my mind too she was or is a bagger??
There was a rumour the Queens Mum had a bag too.???

So sad. She's so young but I guess none of us can hide from cancer if it wants to get us. I thought the same, wondering if she had to be bagged. She may come out later after she kicks it's butt to tell us of her experience.

Surely we can stop putting this young family under the microscope for everything. If Katherine has a stoma I am sure that she would tell people that this is the case. Let this poor family deal with the cancer and when they have come to terms with it I am sure we will find out all about it. I know that my ileostomy was an emergency operation and I am still coming to terms with it three months later.
