Insane 349 Posted April 16, 2022 2 minutes ago, Windsor said: You're not observing anything. You are comparing two totally different scenarios. In one a niece visited a cancer stricken uncle when she happened to be in France. In another a grandson who lives in the USA visited his grandmother when he was in Europe. Why is it so difficult for 'observers' to understand that she is 95 years old, 96 in 5 days time. How many 95 year olds do you know who are upright and able to the stand long enough to present 190 sets of fucking coins. She's fucking old. Not dying. Just fucking old and will survive long enough in her armchair. The reason why it’s so difficult is because they compare her to a immortal being blessed by god him self and they think she will never die which is shit. I honestly think she might live to 100 Years Old because how healthy she is at 95 almost 96 and like Prince Phillip was 99 when he died but then again he looked like only his big toe was sticking out of his grave when he died over a year ago. But the Queen has huge expectations on her because of her status as The Queen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,063 Posted April 16, 2022 59 minutes ago, Insane said: This doesn’t surprise me one bit in the slightest The Queen is turning 96 in 5 days and after the loss of Prince Phillip her mental health and physical went down by a ton in the year following. I won’t be surprised at all if she would need a therapist or counselor to help her heal and get rid of her stress and I honestly think that she might have depression due to the death but it’s not severe enough for her to get help but the health and stress bit yes she needs help and she needs it big time. In fact the Queen has seemed to be remarkably cheerful since Philip died. I can't remember seeing her smiling and laughing so much as she has this past year. I think it's the opposite - his death came as a relief from the stress of worrying about him as his health declined in recent years. I don't think they actually spent a lot of time together until the pandemic forced them into isolation together at Windsor - remember he used to spend most of his time in a cottage at Sandringham. So she also has the comfort of knowing that they made the most of the time he had left, and no regrets over lost time. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, yeah...or maybe she's quietly put herself on Tinder and the attention has cheered her up 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But seriously accidents aside I have seen little to persuade me that the Queen is on her death bed or close to it. I don't take anything for granted but poor mobility in old age is not the same as being close to death. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s fine with me but I’m going on what I believe it’s just a guess and also what the British public believes which says Prince Charles Approval Rating Is 50% with 32% neutral and 18% Disapproval Rating it not high and Willam is the second most popular Royal with 66% Positive And 19% Neutral Rating And 11% Disapproval Rating.
