John Robinson 71 Posted February 27, 2019 Well, I guess you're right about all of you questioning whether Vera Lynn is actually ill or not. So is this basically another hoax or is she really gravely ill and we just don't have confirmation yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John Robinson 71 Posted February 28, 2019 If that's really the wrong thing to say on this site, should I change my mind and say no or should I wait until after our 2nd hit and try to guess the 3rd hit correctly. I just want to do better in the future and not say the wrong things on this site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grim Up North 3,725 Posted March 1, 2019 Seems to be a recent interview No mention of her impending death or even ill health - just looking forward to her 102nd birthday which is on 20th March. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,642 Posted June 17, 2019 Can't say I've followed all the links since I last linked to an interview with her over two years ago but... Her big brother was still alive then. Any mentions of him recently? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking at her and a photo from last September she has aged dramatically in the last 10 months or so, obviously on the decline and her legs are really swollen, sadly she doesn’t look a well women not surprising at 102. I doubt she will see 2021, a must for next year, will be a sad day when she goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,923 Posted July 8, 2019 Yes, she looks awful and will be a miracle if she makes it to 2020. She is 102 so it won't be a sad day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
