King’s gratitude for community of care defying cancer

King’s gratitude for community of care defying cancer

In his most personal message since he was diagnosed with cancer last February, the King has said that “the darkest moments of illness can be illuminated by the greatest compassion”. Charles, 76, has said that his own experience with the disease has given him a greater appreciation of the work that organisations and individuals do for those the 390,000 people who are diagnosed with cancer in the UK each year.
