Catherine’s health issues and the royal missteps that followed became a global topic of discussion early last year when Kensington Palace announced that she had to take a break from royal duties after having “major abdominal surgery” in January.

"It's been 10 amazing years, a wonderful non-stop adventure, and we feel the time is right to take a break so we can recharge and work on some other projects," the group posted on social media at the time.

And his anxiety was compounded because he had not found a moment to eat or take a break.

After the election it was understandable to want to take a break, maybe disconnect for a few weeks or days and arm oneself with emotional/mental/spiritual tools for the challenges ahead.

My husband and I decided to take a break from the clinic and MyChart to rebuild our mental health before trying another egg retrieval.
