Is that different from most queens? Was Elizabeth’s mother officially a queen or queen consort?

Queen Elizabeth II's mother was called the Queen prior to her husband's death, then she became know as the Queen mother. Camilla was given the title Queen consort until Queen Elizabeth II died and Charles III took the throne. From the coronation onward she will be know as the Queen.

All of these decisions regarding titles were made to save confusion regarding Queen Elizabeth II and other members of the royal family.

She’s still only Queen consort. Only other option would be Queen regnant (like Elizabeth II) which is impossible. The Windsors’ tendency to produce first-born boys means we’ll all never live to see another true Queen of England.

Not that I have any inclination towards Charles one way or another, but to have to wait until 73 to assume the throne, and then only being on there for not even a year and a half and get a cancer diagnosis. That’s some bad timing.

They didn’t say what kind but he has access to the best medical care in the world so I assume he’ll be fine.

Yeah, depending on the type and stage of the cancer, the prognosis can differ wildly.

Actually I think the Royal family is only allowed to use medical procedures widely available in the Victorian era. So it's leeches and cabbage under the bed.

That’s when they found the cancer which is NOT prostate cancer.

I haven't looked anything up... So they haven't announced what it is yet?

No which is somewhat weird IMO. Except they went out of their way to specify it was not prostate cancer. If it were he’d be pretty lucky as that’s one of the most treatable kinds.
