At this time it is unclear what level of recovery might be possible, but we want to reassure you she is in good spirits.

Leslie Philips had a massive stroke at about 90 although he got treatment very quickly.Fielding sounds a lot more serious though.If she recently had a massive stroke that endangered her life a few days around still poses a threat to life she is not unlikely to not have another stroke and that even if smaller would almost certainly kill her.Also if her swallowing is compromised as happens in some major strokes she would likely need to be tube fed and would still be at risk of infection or water in the lungs.At 90 there is also likely to be neurological damage and physio won't work well at nearly 91. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My grandfather lived to 95 after having a a stroke in his early 90's and he may have had another one. I was in my teens at the time and my parents didn't give me much information. I do know we put him in a nursing home soon after as he also had dementia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can never really understand that choice of words. Of course it was fucking unforeseen, if it had been foreseen that there would be circumstances as to why she could not attend they would not have pencilled her in to attend in the first place!! A ' bears do shit in the woods' kinda statement or summat. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could say she's Noel Fielding's grandmother or great aunt, she seems more of a great aunt type than a granny, and see if a load of wanna be hipsters start taking notice of her. Kidding aside, I like Fenella so I wish her well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,477 Posted September 11, 2018 Confirmed via her own website: Quote MISS FIELDING RIP It's hard to imagine, but that bright twinkling star faded slowly and has actually gone out. Since her stroke on 25th August, Fenella has been in hospital where she remained calm, comfortable and divine throughout. It's been an incredibly sad time, but also life affirming to see her pass with the great dignity she deserved. To quote Fenella's GP, "I have known her for 30 years and she would wish to take a graceful bow and leave the stage like the lady she is." She did just that. Fenella Fielding OBE passed away this afternoon peacefully. She died with her eyelashes on! Miss Fielding was an incredible talent. That voice! A unique woman, much loved by family, friends and fans. She will be missed tremendously. Very sad about this one. RIP to a legend. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
