Death Impends 7,953 Posted November 11, 2017 Still would be stunned if he makes it to Advent Avalanche picking time - don't think there's much rebounding a 96 year old with two cancers can do 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

philheybrookbay 439 Posted November 11, 2017 In my past knowledge with cancer, it’s like the last meal. They eat, brighten up and then pass away. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,434 Posted November 11, 2017 When (legendary aged pro-wrestler) Mae Young was on deathwatch in January 2014, journalist jumped the gun and announced her dead prematurely. Apparently a friend told her they'd just read her obit online and she went "Dead? But I'm having dinner!" She died a few days later. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally I think he's a different case to Zsa Zsa but when they start hacking... He still has all his limbs, but little time left. He knows this well, and as a testament to this, he recently signed... a will and testament. Although his properties were confiscated by the communist regime that forced his resignation, much of that property (worth around €60 m) was returned to him after the Romanian Revolution. The contents of his will are (as of yet) unknown, but presumably he wanted to make sure that Nicholas Medford-Mills would not inherit anything. https://www.realitatea.net/averea-regelui-mihai-majestatea-sa-a-semnat-un-testament-continutul-necunoscut_2122439.html (Romanian) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GossipGabe 333 Posted November 16, 2017 An update of sorts: Romanian media reports his situation as "still precarious" and seems to have worsened a bit according to Andrew Popper, although he is "sometimes still conscious".
