Camilla Parker Bowles is someone who doesn’t have any time for royal drama. Instead, she’s trying to make a difference in this world. The Duchess of Cornwall has written a tribute to those family and friends that she has lost to cancer over the years. Camilla wrote a post exclusively for the Daily Mail this past week. Here’s what she has to say.
“We have all, in some form or another, received news of a cancer diagnosis: whether our own or of someone we love. We have all, even if for a short time, lost the joy of living in the fear of someone dying. We have all endured the terrifying sensation of groping powerlessly in the dark for a comforting hand to guide us,” Camilla wrote.

Camilla’s post also highlights the 25th anniversary of Maggie’s Centers, which is a cancer support charity that the Duchess has been a president of since 2008. Maggie’s Centers is named in honour of Maggie Keswick Jencks, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1988
“Like everyone, I have seen close family and friends fight cancer. Sadly, some have now gone, but others came out the other side,” Camilla wrote.
She continued, “Staffed by experts in cancer care, benefits advisors, psychologists and nutritionists, it was somewhere to have a cup of tea, to have a bit of quiet contemplation, to chat to a professional, to join a relaxation class or to sit with people who, without needing lengthy explanations, instinctively understood you (three out of five people find the mental challenges of living with cancer harder than the physical).”
