This.
You've nailed what's been bothering me since February when he was "diagnosed". I was puzzled at his appearances often with white stuff on the lower half of his face, noticed by BookWorm and readers too. He didn't "step back from public facing duties" at all, and continued to meet and greet though if he had cancer his immunity would have been compromised?
He seems to have been given the all-clear more than I've had hot dinners.
If he has a type of cancer that's treatable and leaves him able to frisk around, travel huge distances, eat caviar and work like a demon all day as Chuck is clearly doing, why the doom and gloom and praise for his bravery, threats that he's at risk? We're invited daily to feel sorry for him, but I'm not sure whether he's going out in a burst of glory riddled with cancer or is a fraud using it for PR, sympathy and a cover for manoeuvres. Mostly lack of action and duty.
Nothing would surprise me, and that anything is possible is their fault not ours.
If he has bladder cancer for example and its treatment is benign as you say above, why are we told daily how bravely he's facing gruelling treatment? Putting his health at risk for his duty? Virtually dragging himself to France for D-Day, Camilla anxious by his side. He has to slow down, we can't hold him back etc etc. Tom P Bowels warning of huge risk, Chuck's too fragile to deal with the Stoat, 7 minutes only. Overkill and contradictions.
That.
Thank you
@TheCuban, I feel a lot clearer now.
