@Rose Lee This 72 yr old America Grandmother has adored this extraordinary Queen, Mother, and Lady most of my life! I have admired and respected her since an early age. In times gone by I could see a news reel of her almost any time I went to the movies! Then as technology exploded I could follow her as though I was there with her! I share with you, Rose, in being heartened that she didn't linger long in her illness. But I do believe she stoically bore more physical pain than we realize. She certainly was devastated by the loss of her Prince but bravely carried out her duty to her beloved people. The most regrettable sadness is that her final years were not golden as she bore the worry, stress, heartbreak of untrue stories attacking her, her family, and her Monarchy.
Lee Chandler I'm the same,she wasn't the worse hopefully her son will follow in her footsteps,she's at peace and with the love of her life Philip amen 🌹💗🌹🌹💗🌹
@@imsocuteimsorich4952 With all these know it all, Film makers would jump at the chance of making a film of Queen Elizabeth II final year. I wonder of what her final words would have been, Time for me too go. Farewell my son King Charles, Look after him Camila and the rest of the family.
It was her final act and you can see the perple hands indicating a substantial loss of blood circulation, she probably went to bed that evening and didn't get up again slowly loosing concussions until death, with Princess Margaret by her bed side the whole time.
I think the same, losing her husband after so many years could have affect her more than we think. She was stoic and still doing his duty, it's the reason, I was surprised by her death. What a strong lady, she was.
I’ve been saying since Prince Phillip died that she did not have much longer. Exactly what the person being interviewed said. Statistically being married to 50+ years when one spouse goes the other one goes shortly after. I’ve seen that happened with several famous people,
Exactly, my grandma passed away just months after my grandpa's passing. I thought she would live for a very long time given her energetic nature, but losing someone who's always been by her side for a very long time seemed to affect her health greatly. She lost her appetite and got very thin. Although her child and grandchildren took turn to accompany her after losing grandpa, she seemed lonely. I miss them so much.
As a retired nurse we actually see many of our patient's looking really wonderful and mobile at her age, but on observations we notice the weight loss,eating less refusing fluids and all we can do is sit with the patient keeping there company and making them as comfortable as possible. May her Majesty Rest in Peace. Amen
What a trooper working meeting with PM at 96 and dying two days later, she was extremely tough and determined to do her job, to the best of her abilities, and the loss of Philip took a toll no doubt.
Honestly she looked very sick while with Lizz Truss, bruised hands or perple hads shows a substantial loss of blood circulation and honestly she was probably dieing right there, went home that night and didn't get up out of bed again.
I agree, what a remarkable woman. The picture shaking hands with the PM brings tears to my eyes...she work till the end. She can rest now. She will be missed 😢
She looked beautiful the day she met with the pm so that's our last image of her, looking amazing , and that is how we will remember her . She was still riding her horses in June and her horse are really big ones ❤️
But why she died? Natural age. I don't believe in that. Samthing ocurr in your body to cease. Working. Immense , reactions of your body. If is I'll. Covid could be_ she contracted again, Ebola_ and heart attack. But why so secretly. ( sorry I born in 1944., but speaking beautiful Castilian Spanish. So rich. Need to improve my grammar. God save the queen!!!
She mustered up enough strength to carry out her final duty two days before dying, So glad she let go when she did What a brave woman right to the end God bless her ❤️❤️
What was incredibly telling is speaking as an American, isn’t the PM normally sworn in at Buckingham? Truss was sworn in at Balmoral. I think she was too weak to go to Buckingham.
@@vinlennox7658 When they call my number I'm going to swap my ticket Spent so long nursing family I forgot about me I'm just starting to live now at 64. A 100 yrs old yes please I have lots of health problems ,hey thousands do Keep smiling at others Say Hi make somebody's day It comes back tenfold Jenny Guernsey 🇬🇬 ♥ ❤
She worked till the end . This was extraordinary . She died without having to suffer much and at 96 she still could walk and receive her guests while standing , for this I think she was one of the strongest women in the world. May God rest her soul in eternal peace.
It's surely logical that she worked herself past the limit, and her body stopped taking it. That is a bad system, her belief in a duty to keep working for life + that it would damage the institution ever to retire. Of course it would not. Dutch monarchs routinely retire. Charles III now accedes at well past an average retirement age, after a full length life defined by a future role that seemed never to come, and whose coming would always be defined by his mum's passing.
She is 'a royal workaholic' executive you may say brought up to put duty before pleasure, self-discipline before emotional needs. Her stamina is awesome. Speed and flexibility are not her forte, but staying the course over the long haul is. The iron training of her tough, though fey, Scottish mother shows all too clearly, and is perhaps a contributory factor in her own children's inability to find domestic stability. P/S: i was borned 7 months before her wedding in November 1947...thank you for that free British education i received.
She was strong indeed. Regal but kind at the same time.... whether in her mechanic's overalls changing tires in WWII, or crowned in her royal regalia. Quite a legend.
Even in death she served her country. By passing away in Scotland, the place she loved, she has united her kingdom. An incredible woman who is sadly missed.
The Queen and Queen Mother were betting women who loved their horses. Thousands of pounds spent especially by The Queen Mother on horse betting. The passed away having failed the strength of The Church of England.
My dad passed away at 93. Up until a week before his death, he was sharp as a tack and getting around fairly well for someone his age. He started sleeping 15 hours a day and just slipped away one day.
She worked and showed support right till the end. She would not show that she was ill or could not see out her duties. Our Queen. A constant presence in a changing world. Rest In Peace. Queen Elizabeth II. A sad loss.
In the final hours before death the body sends signals to the person that they are feeling good however actually almost dead, no return. Her perple hands show the lack of oxygen being circulated by her failing heart.
I used to work in the nursing home for 25 years ,most of the time when one partner go the other half followed as well and it happens all the time and sometimes just hours both husband and wife pass away ! May your soul Rest In Peace Queen Elizabeth II and fly high from Jacksonville Florida USA 🇺🇸 🙏
So true. After that many years of being together what do you do after one passes. My reason for pointing out iv marking on her hand ,she remained graceful put a smile on her face and did this meeting. Amazing
She had an epic life and was a walking history book. Incredible woman. May she rest in peace with her beloved husband, parents, sister, and her dogs and horses who are over on that side.
When you think about all the history she witnessed that alone is mind boggling. On top of that she remained alert and maintained her graciousness and sense of humor right up to the end. She was a classy lady, the likes of which we'll never see again.
I really felt she had more years left since her Mom lived to nearly 102. However, she had the stress of being a Monarch and had lost her husband of nearly 74 years. All that would take a toll. 💔❤️
I expected her to make it to her triple digits just as her mother did. As an American, the news deeply shocked and saddened me. Rest In Peace, your majesty. You made a promise at age 21 and kept it throughout your life. 🕯 🇬🇧
She was 96 years old, lost her husband and life partner just over a year ago, and had COVID this year which taxes a normal, younger, healthy body. She deserved to rest, may she forever Rest In Peace reunited with her dear Philip and her dear papa and mum and sister. 🙏🏼
It was almost as if she had set herself the goal of meeting with the new prime minister before she went to join Philip. That last picture of her, she had such wonderful smile, as if she knew her job was finally done and she could just let go. One incredible lady. R.I.P. now back with her beloved Philip.
At the age of 96 years and to lose her as our Queen is dreadfully sad . I myself was born in 1952 ; the first time I seen her to remember her was 50 years ago . Queen Elizabeth was gorgeous to look act ; amazingly so in fact , it was hard not to stare . Not only the most famous woman in the world but also the most beautiful . Remember her now but don't forget what was once there.
@@kdaniel8721 Born in 1952 ...the commentor will be 70 and more used to hearing The Queen's English than you will be. ..,we remember when news readers all spoke correctly. .. .but not as used to using predictive text....on a mobile. ..tiny buttons. ..my texts end up with typos as the phone changes everything! I can't stand bad grammar but abhor bad manners even more. They left a touching and respectful heartfelt comment. Shame on you for making fun of them for a minor grammatical error.
I was Born in 1950 and can recall the death of King George V1 and our wonderful Queen's Coronation. She was the person I most admired. So sad to lose her.
My nurse friends have said the bruises on her hand could mean she was not get oxygen to her extremities, which would mean her body was already shutting down. It’s hard to imagine her being able to dress and meet with the PM in that case, but she was determined to fulfill her duties until her last breath. God Bless her sweet soul!
This is called actively dying. When my mother started transitioning in 2021 her doctor told us that transitioning can take from two to three months. My mother lost weight, ate very little and didn't want to drink liquids. The week of her death she lost all interest in food and liquids. Two days before her death just like the Queen, her hands, feet, and neck began to turn blue and black. The doctors explained that when the body starts shutting down the parts of the body furthest away from the heart isn't getting oxygen and starts to turn dark.
@@dorothysampson7414 that’s what I was told yesterday. I didn’t realize one was able to really function during that time, but I suppose every case is different. I first heard “actively dying” when a friend died about ten years ago. It seems to be a very apt description.
@@itrcanokaygun9637 You're 100% right. I worked 30 years in ICU and saw this all the time. It's even happened to me personally with iv's. It's not related to hypoxia because her fingers and mouth aren't blue. Furthermore, she wouldn't be standing if it were hypoxia. She was being hydrated through an iv.
@@kimberlynolin2100 - thank you. I suspected that the discolouration was due to iv/cannula. Using her left hand suggested to me that Her Majesty was not steady with the right side of Her body. Whatever the reasons, the passing of Her Majesty was so sudden - obviously surprising the family. I still find it quite emotional & unreal knowing that our beloved Queen is now actually with Her parents & adored husband for All Eternity…… Life will never be the same. 🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴
I hate to be a bearer of grim news but.....if your relatives or good friends who have passed, remember if in the final days before they left you, were their personality different than ordinary? thats a "sign"......even if one day, they tell you something like "wow! I feel pretty good today or say things that may shock you".
@Donna Drawdy and per those that probably know.....once you enter the gates of heaven....all the pain, all the discomfort, all are vanished and you are very happy.
@@walesaudit2771 With all this lot you could find yourself in the tower on bread and water I will come visit If I'm not in the room next to you I wholeheartedly agree with you Pack some warm clothes I hear the tower is cold 🥶 😬 Jenny Guernsey 🇬🇬 ♥
She really pushed herself to the very end. Her badly bruised hands showed how sick she really was yet she carried on with a smile on her face. RIP Queen Elizabeth. Sleep peacefully.❤️
The woman was a MARVELl! Leader to the people along with "consistent allegiance to her faith." No stopping her at the Gate: "She, went straight to heaven!"
An extraordinary woman who led an extraordinary life. What else can one say about this woman who dedicated her entire life to the service of her country. So very sad. She will be missed the world over. RIP Your Majesty.
Not British but I loved her ;dignified, graceful, patriotic, loyal, dutiful until the end. Rest In Peace beautiful lady you will be missed in this world full of people that are all about me, myself and I.
Yes you are right, Elizabeth (you share the same name!). So many people are very selfish, forgetting about the others, lack of courtesy and too much money. We will miss her. King Charles has a lot to come up to his Mother's famous image.
God bless Her Majesty. I’m a proud Royalist, and so very deeply saddened by her passing 😢 Sleep peacefully Queen Elizabeth, you can rest easy now 🙏🏻🕊🕊🕊♥️
So pleased to hear you say this, Aussiegal, because we know that Australia and also Canada were two Commonwealth countries Her Majesty loved. She loved every Commonwealth country, of course but, being human, we can’t help having our fondest memories!
Everyone needs to remember she was indeed 96. But not even 2 years ago her life mate, best friend, husband left her side. That absolutely affected her health I guarantee. My grandparents were married 70 years. Grief is a huge factor. She wanted to be with her Prince again 😊 just like my grandma first thought was joy for them that they are with their best friend.
When I was working on a UK carehome, I remembered that when an elderly reached 100 years old, they will received a personal birthday card from the Queen. It was nice because the Queen remembers them.
@@brokenSnake Yes she do because she supports lots of charities and organisations. You are too focus of the negativity. Probably you don't feel or seen how the Queen's actions to you or others but to others, they do experience it and as a Non British, I have witness those elderly people who received personal birthday cards from the Queen and that is her way of support and bringing dignity to the elderly people.
@@rosannehernandez2514 for someone with 25 billion dollars, being part of 600 charities is no big deal. Come and talk to me if she had died poor. Secondly, the birthday cards are automated. The palace hired Deloitte and EY to build the system for them.
@@brokenSnake so if she died poor, is your perception of her changed? Even if those cards are automated, there is the good purpose of what are those cards from. If you have problems with the Queen, since she died address it to the other members of the Royal family especially to King Charles, maybe they can help you on what you are struggling at. Being skeptical about what she have done in the past is no good, it doesn't bring solutions and actions to what we are currently dealing with. She have already died.
Reminds me of my mother (very much a matriarch) who was perfectly well 2 days before she died. She was 95. I nursed her at home during that time. My 93 yo father is still fit and well, swimming or walking every day
So beautifully laid out. No frills but raw honest truth that we as the public witnessed Amazing soundness of mind, strength and grace to the very end , wow. Her faith was strong.
I’m an 61yo American who’s also widowed and consider myself an Anglophile since my early teens... l’ve always admired Queen Elizabeth’s devotion to duty, fortitude an sense of humor. “How did this happen so fast?” For goodness sakes the woman was 96 years old and a mere 17 months earlier she lost her beloved husband of 74 years! COVID-19? I personally believe the Queen died of a broken heart from missing her husband. May she finally Rest In Peace with her beloved Phillip.
She was saddened, but she was a realist too. Her husbands passing did show on her but cant believe she was heartbroken. After all, His Royal Highness Prince Philip did live to be nearly 100! And healthy. A blessing in itself..
God Bless her, this is all true, i took care of my mom and she passed away at 93, slow process of going downhill and not having much of an appetite, a ripe old graceful age, we will love them and miss them for the rest of our days , prayers to the royal family, we only get one mom xoxox
There will never be another woman in history like our Gracious Majesty Queen Elizabeth II! It was sad to see how frail she was and her bruised hand which she extended to Prime Minister Liz Truss in what would be the last photograph taken of her with her irrepressible smile! May she rest in eternal peace!🙏🌷
I’m happy that Queen Elizabeth didn’t suffer. This was one very special woman. She put her duties first always. There was a special welcome for the Queen into heaven. A double rainbow over the crowd of people outside the palace as they gathered to mourn their Lovely Queen Elizabeth REST IN PEACE DEAR QUEEN ELIZABETH. YOU FULFILLED YOUR PROMISE TO LIVE A LIFE OF SERVICE. Now you’re with your Beloved Family Members you have missed for many years. I’m first generation American. My Father was from Ireland and always Lovingly referred to Queen Elizabeth as “My Little Princess!” He came to America when The Queen was still a child and she was loved by people you wouldn’t have expected. People from Southern Ireland 🇮🇪. In many ways Queen Elizabeth was my Queen too.
In 2017 I visited my mom who was 87yrs old and spent the day with her. I was amazed to see her looking so happy young and peaceful as she sat by her kitchen door. Even though she had a history of diabetes and few ailments she looked ten years younger and despite her few ailments like diabetes... heart problems she was looking good with a sound mind ..great memory..not senile at all and extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. To cut a long story short my mom was rushed to hospital the following morning without our knowledge. People at the complex phoned an ambulance as she had a panic attack during the night. My mom wasnt able to get hold of anyone of my siblings nor me as she wanted us to know that a certain doctor at Somerset Hospital who was not able to get hold of her folder as it went missing conveniently was attended to and the doctor took the initiative to send her to Groote Schuur for a pacemaker....something my mother refused to have all these years. However by 10am my mom had passed away due to the negligence of a doctor at Groote Schuur who admitted that the machine overheated as he was busy elsewhere. We were devastated and myself and two siblings tried to seek justice but to no avail. My point is no one knows when we are going to die..only our Creator. When someone lives past 70yrs we live on borrowed time. The queen was fortunate to die at 96yrs and she had a sound mind and looked good at that age. Im 71yrs old and Im being told I look much younger. Im proud thanks to God and I live one day at a time. I do not fear to die but really still want to live until Jesus comes. I have four children and five grandchildren. As parents we want to be around for them and because life is wonderful when you have a relationship with God despite the heartache pain and suffering in this world. I had Covid thrice doctored myself and feel blessed.
For me, our beloved Queen Elizabeth II was "dead" on April 9, 2021, when Prince Philip left this earth. I have a thought on this sad day for ALL those who have served her so faithfully for decades: her family members, her very discreet and knowledgeable doctors, the very devoted Angela Kelly, the guards, the keeper of the royal stamps, the drivers, all the housekeeping staff, the butlers, cooks and chefs, the royal diver, the curator of frames and that of furniture, the queen's mistress of music, the communication officers, her private secretaries + all those I could not mention. THANK YOU 🙏🙏🙏
She was such a strong,beautiful,brave,sweet,and warm loving person.The UK lost a Saint.Bless her for her wonderful service,she will be greatly missed forever....
God bless this wonderful lady. But, I was deeply upset t over the comments by the reporter, "Fell off her perch, Still has her marbles?" You would think a reporter could act like she has a little more class especially when she's speaking about a beloved amazing QUEEN. .GOD BLESS QUEEN ELIZABETH
She wouldn't of meant that in a nasty way.I think The QUEEN would smile at that.Its aussies being affectionate. .I've been there so understand the lovely aussies.
She was absolutely a QUEEN, she lived a good life. I will miss her and her beautiful coats and hats. R.I.P Queen Elizabeth, you have earned the rest 🙏💗🌻
To make it clear what great people she is, perhaps to those who don't love them, Queen Elizabeth in 2016 sent a lot of funds to help the people of Abruzzo devastated by the earthquake. We of Abruzzo will never forget what the queen has done for us. Honorable mention, in the 70s king giorgio came many times to visit the national park of abruzzo, he has always been enthusiastic.
"in the 70s king giorgio came" I think you either have the wrong date or the wrong king. King George VI died in 1952. Did you mean King Carlo (Charles)?
@Kaylee Tyler i am american, but i still cared for your queen. i am going to study her life and from now on try to model my life after her character, from now on. i am 75 yrs of age, and want to finish my life and meet god in good conscience. rebecca newman
She was incredible women still working at 96 was unreal she had a hard life after losing her husband she been through alot the last year and a bit unfortunately it was just her time and she went peacefully that's how everyone wants to go.✌✌✌✌✌🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭 still so sad .
Queen Elizabeth was a remarkable woman who always showed her deep love for her realm. She should be a roll model for everyone no matter which Country they come from. Rest in peace your Majesty, you will be missed.
God gave her a very good life as well as a good death. She didn’t suffer through either one; and that’s so awesome. Sleep on Queen Elizebath, May your soul rest peacefully. My deepest condolence to the family.
At her age grief and ill health takes a hell of a toll on your body, she had her "strength and stay" by her side for over 70 years, that's her whole life. It was only a matter of time before she was reunited with her dear husband that she loved dearly. She couldn't live without him.
A great inimitable figure, as an Italian I had a lot of sympathy and administration for this woman, she best represented the great tradition of the Crown.
What an amazing lady. I will remember her as my Queen who worked for so long and so hard that she was still working until at least 10 days after she died. She strategically passed in Balmoral thereby instigating a 500 mile journey that will reinforce the bonds of two Kingdoms and even now lies in state as a symbol of unity to a global Commonwealth. That's a stateswoman for you! The Queen was easily THE most famous living person in our lives ... and yet I never saw her on such a list. Her face, on the currencies of 35 Nations, was so ubiquitous that we longer even saw her. And now that she's gone we will miss her.
According to Lady C, she passed from bone cancer..but I can't believe just two days before her passing she met with the new PM. I had a tremendous amount of respect for this grand lady! Rest in peace your Majesty! 💔
Does Lady C really know anything?! I cannot imagine anyone close to the royal family actually giving her any I side info! Do they even like her and all her gossipy “truths?”
It's a great saying from down under. When I turned 50 yrs old my cousin gave me a pack of marbles and told me to keep them in a safe place and then I'd never lose ' my marbles' so far I've kept them safe.
@@ThePierre58 I think it's a seasonal thing Here in Guernsey it seems to be around now My grandchildren live in England ,they come over for a Summer holiday Needless to say I get a whole two weeks of Granny baiting I give back plenty Especially when Mummy and Daddy can't hear They like to count my speeding tickets 🙄😱 So you see perhaps the bag of marbles does have a hole in it You wait until they find out I'm doing a skinny dip for charity lol epic Fancy a game of marbles Jenny Guernsey 🇬🇬 ♥ ❤
I have such deep respect and love for H.R.H, she will be sorely missed. What amazes me the most however is that she took each passing of a loved one in stride. When someone is young, there’s always that knowledge that one day everyone you grew up with will pass on, but to keep going and with such strength, it’s truly something amazing.
The reporters at Balmoral at 3pm their time were standing around talking. Lots of them. There were many OPEN MICS! They were telling each other as more joined them that she passed at 2:37 their time and she had bone cancer. Now her appearance makes sense. It is painful. Her right calf and ankle were swollen. Her hand was purple. Look at the picture from Tues with PM. If she did indeed have bone cancer she is even more remarkable working to the end.
I’m a nurse practitioner, I kinda thought at her 70’s birthday ( the second one) she did like very unwell. She still stood, but could not take all the parties in her favor. I was just going to say that,she lost her husband of 70plus years exactly 17 months and I believe 12 days. I knew this was going to happen, surprised it lasted this long. She had lots of help and family who loved her. Lots of people loved the Queen 🫅. Evening Paddington 🐻. She was amazed at the IT technology it took to get that 45 second skit together. That will be something so cool for her great grands to see when they are older.💜🐻💐👑
I think she would had continued well into the hundred, but, by her own admission, covid left her tired and exhausted. I really believe covid was responsible because even if you recover you can have long covid, let alone getting covid at 96 years old.
There’s no such thing as long covid - the immune system response to the virus creates a wound - when you’re younger and healthier you can recover from this wound a lot better. For her, yes, the long term effects may have included some reduced capacity. I suspect it was COVID - which is a respiratory disease illness, contributed to her decline.
As a psychic when I saw the photo of the Queen smiling & greeting holding out her hand to greet the new P.M. Then I noticed the bruises on her hand and how drawn it looked and right away I knew that she did not have long to go. I was not surprised when she passed two days later. She missed her Philip too, dreadfully, and she was ready to go to him anyway. Now she's with him and happy.
I did not see the bruises at first but looking at the picture on Tuesday she honestly did not look well. I honestly did not think she had much longer. But honestly I was pretty much waiting for it since Phillip Died.
@@cathybaldry7822 I would not like people to see mine, I am on a blood thinner because I had a stroke two years ago. I am always bruised, hate taking the medicine but I have no choice. My skin is so thin there have been times when I have bumped into something that it will tear right back and bleed. I need a coat of armor.
Widowhood is devastating. My husband and I didn't have the greatest marriage and we had actually separated in Sept. 2020. He was only turning 68 and I was 74 but he died suddenly just before New Year's, four months after our separation. The shock was like nothing I have ever experienced and I lost both my parents before I turned 30. I am completely alone now so I just had to plow thru despite living in Israel where my Hebrew was nearly non-existent. It has gotten much better, including reading. It simply had to and all this without a community of friends because he was actually mentally unwell and that prevented us from having a circle of friends. I can't imagine what would have happened if we had had a close, loving marriage. I probably wouldn't be here to write this. We were together for 32 years. I think only the loss of a child would be worse.
@@Meira750 Bless you..being positive is easier said than done, life seems to go on in a different way when we're older, but it's still a life and at 79 is still precious to me...and every new day is treasured inspite of health issues...I hope you find peace..
The Queen is a woman to look up to. Obviously, to me anyway, she was tenacious to fulfill her duties to her county until the end. Perhaps she kept herself going until she could welcome the new Prime Minister and then said to herself “I’m done”.
molley pants, i am american, but i followed the life of queen elizabeth and learned a lot of graciousness, courtesy, and other beautiful features from your queen. i loved her and still do. rebecca newman
Totally agree one can go to bed fine but not wake up next morning it's the way our bodies work. I once had a patient eat her turkey Christmas lunch but before Christmas pudding was served died and didn't choke either before anyone suggests.
Her heart was broken 💔 Philip her rock was not there to help her carry the burdens regarding Harry, his wife and Andrew. She was not provided the privilege to grieve and mourn in a healthy manner, the passing of PP.
Dr. Mansberg presented this story so well and positively, thank you! Unquestionably, the loss of the Queen is sad, but she frames the whole story beautifully: who would not want to live with all the mental faculties present, still physically able to carry oneself, still work, and yes, after the loss of her partner of so many decades. I strongly feel that the Queen did an exemplary job in heading the British Royal family, evolving with the times, and dealing with heartache so stoicly. She is a highly-respected historical figure for a reason. Nothing succeeds like excellence. Godspeed, HM Queen Elizabeth II.
What more can really be said. One can hope that she left with a smile in her face and peace in her heart. May she now rest in the peace she deserves. 🙏🙏😔
When you think of her activity level, it may have been supporting her vitality more than taxing her! Blood flow, engagement, great for her mind and her physical health. Her work kept her active. (My mother retired at 79 from her bank job. Only after that did she decline. She told me to work til I’m 80). I plan to work all my life at something meaningful, as beautiful Queen Elizabeth did ❤️
She was a supreme statesperson to the end, even with a huge cannula bruise on her right hand. And she may have smiled at lasting long enough to see Boris out of office - so he couldn’t bookend Churchill & remain PM during her mourning period, and insult us all with a well-written yet hypocritical & insincere speech he believed would re-ignite his own popularity. This photo just shows her as she always was - a woman of dignity, honour, intelligence, humour & humility.
May we so live to enjoy that day when the Lord may say to us, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.” (Matt. 25:21.)
I'm from London, Reading all the Australian comments, RESPECT FROM THIS LONDON/UK QUEEN SUPPORTER....TEAM QUEEN...TEAM AUSTRALIA...TEAM RESPECT...CHEERS COBBERS 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
I’m glad she passed quickly instead of deteriorating little by little. She still had a little smile. What a woman to look up to.
May her soul rest in peace 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
So true. My mother and my aunt went like that, too. It was as if they said it was time to go, a n d went to sleep. God loved them.

She had the best smile! I was really surprised she was not wearing gloves because her hands were so purple in that last photo!
It was her final act and you can see the perple hands indicating a substantial loss of blood circulation, she probably went to bed that evening and didn't get up again slowly loosing concussions until death, with Princess Margaret by her bed side the whole time.
@@HOLLASOUNDS I would like to think her parents, sister and husband were all guiding her home that morning
@@melissam7379 Her Christian faith states that its Jesus that awaits her. She was very religious.
@@KayInMaine No gloves inside home!)
I think she was missing her dear husband. She was incredible for 96! We should all be that blessed!
I think the same, losing her husband after so many years could have affect her more than we think. She was stoic and still doing his duty, it's the reason, I was surprised by her death. What a strong lady, she was.
I’ve been saying since Prince Phillip died that she did not have much longer. Exactly what the person being interviewed said. Statistically being married to 50+ years when one spouse goes the other one goes shortly after. I’ve seen that happened with several famous people,
Exactly, my grandma passed away just months after my grandpa's passing. I thought she would live for a very long time given her energetic nature, but losing someone who's always been by her side for a very long time seemed to affect her health greatly. She lost her appetite and got very thin. Although her child and grandchildren took turn to accompany her after losing grandpa, she seemed lonely. I miss them so much.
I think losing her husband, the scandal with Andrew and all the crap from Harry and his narcissistic wife took a toll on her.
@@lauraschoenborn3544 I said the SAME
As a retired nurse we actually see many of our patient's looking really wonderful and mobile at her age, but on observations we notice the weight loss,eating less refusing fluids and all we can do is sit with the patient keeping there company and making them as comfortable as possible. May her Majesty Rest in Peace. Amen
We have lost a true legend 😭😭😭😭😭😭
What do you think about her majesty ? She was call to glory I guess 😭😭😭
Thank you for your comment.
It my pleasure
@@eureka842008 where are you from?
What a trooper working meeting with PM at 96 and dying two days later, she was extremely tough and determined to do her job, to the best of her abilities, and the loss of Philip took a toll no doubt.
Honestly she looked very sick while with Lizz Truss, bruised hands or perple hads shows a substantial loss of blood circulation and honestly she was probably dieing right there, went home that night and didn't get up out of bed again.
Totally agree with you!😊👑
I agree, what a remarkable woman. The picture shaking hands with the PM brings tears to my eyes...she work till the end. She can rest now. She will be missed 😢
She looked beautiful the day she met with the pm so that's our last image of her, looking amazing , and that is how we will remember her . She was still riding her horses in June and her horse are really big ones ❤️
But why she died? Natural age. I don't believe in that. Samthing ocurr in your body to cease. Working. Immense , reactions of your body. If is I'll. Covid could be_ she contracted again, Ebola_ and heart attack. But why so secretly. ( sorry I born in 1944., but speaking beautiful Castilian Spanish. So rich. Need to improve my grammar. God save the queen!!!
She mustered up enough strength to carry out her final duty two days before dying, So glad she let go when she did What a brave woman right to the end God bless her ❤️❤️
What was incredibly telling is speaking as an American, isn’t the PM normally sworn in at Buckingham? Truss was sworn in at Balmoral. I think she was too weak to go to Buckingham.

Jenny Guernsey 🇬🇬 ♥ ❤
@@jenny4204 cool Jenny!
She worked till the end . This was extraordinary . She died without having to suffer much and at 96 she still could walk and receive her guests while standing , for this I think she was one of the strongest women in the world. May God rest her soul in eternal peace.
Her unending endurance!
It's surely logical that she worked herself past the limit, and her body stopped taking it. That is a bad system, her belief in a duty to keep working for life + that it would damage the institution ever to retire. Of course it would not. Dutch monarchs routinely retire. Charles III now accedes at well past an average retirement age, after a full length life defined by a future role that seemed never to come, and whose coming would always be defined by his mum's passing.
She is 'a royal workaholic' executive you may say brought up to put duty before pleasure, self-discipline before emotional needs. Her stamina is awesome. Speed and flexibility are not her forte, but staying the course over the long haul is. The iron training of her tough, though fey, Scottish mother shows all too clearly, and is perhaps a contributory factor in her own children's inability to find domestic stability. P/S: i was borned 7 months before her wedding in November 1947...thank you for that free British education i received.
She was strong indeed. Regal but kind at the same time.... whether in her mechanic's overalls changing tires in WWII, or crowned in her royal regalia. Quite a legend.
She went to bed that evening after meeting Lizz Truss and didn't get up again. It was her last act.
Even in death she served her country. By passing away in Scotland, the place she loved, she has united her kingdom.
An incredible woman who is sadly missed.
And she will still be my queen in spirit for ever. From "God Save the Queen" to "God Rest the Queen"
To the end that men may know that the most high rules in the kingdom of men .
like it ,when you said..she ,united her kingdom...
I thought that too. The decision to reside in Balmoral was astute.
The Queen and Queen Mother were betting women who loved their horses. Thousands of pounds spent especially by The Queen Mother on horse betting.
The passed away having failed the strength of The Church of England.
My dad passed away at 93. Up until a week before his death, he was sharp as a tack and getting around fairly well for someone his age. He started sleeping 15 hours a day and just slipped away one day.
The best way to go💙
M condolencies, and I am glad he went peaceably. My father suffered and deteriorated for 18 months.
She worked and showed support right till the end. She would not show that she was ill or could not see out her duties. Our Queen. A constant presence in a changing world. Rest In Peace. Queen Elizabeth II. A sad loss.
In the final hours before death the body sends signals to the person that they are feeling good however actually almost dead, no return. Her perple hands show the lack of oxygen being circulated by her failing heart.
I used to work in the nursing home for 25 years ,most of the time when one partner go the other half followed as well and it happens all the time and sometimes just hours both husband and wife pass away ! May your soul Rest In Peace Queen Elizabeth II and fly high from Jacksonville Florida USA 🇺🇸 🙏
I am a nurse and worked mostly in long term care and I can attest to that.
So true. After that many years of being together what do you do after one passes. My reason for pointing out iv marking on her hand ,she remained graceful put a smile on her face and did this meeting. Amazing
hello ,...there in Jacksonville, Florida!!..
@@ruth4thetruth334 o0oiv
She had an epic life and was a walking history book. Incredible woman. May she rest in peace with her beloved husband, parents, sister, and her dogs and horses who are over on that side.
She has 4 dogs who will likely be cared by the same people who handled them. They will be fine.......so will her horses. Charles ? not too sure.....
When you think about all the history she witnessed that alone is mind boggling. On top of that she remained alert and maintained her graciousness and sense of humor right up to the end. She was a classy lady, the likes of which we'll never see again.
Her muchl loved pets would have been waiting to greet her when she arrived with Philip.

I love that last picture of her
Just simply dressed, a big smile on her face, looking like a gran but gracious,humble, and sweet
I really felt she had more years left since her Mom lived to nearly 102. However, she had the stress of being a Monarch and had lost her husband of nearly 74 years. All that would take a toll. 💔❤️
So true!☹👑
Obviously not!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish she did not get Covid. Elderly have lingering fatigue. Losing her husband had to be crushing
I expected her to make it to her triple digits just as her mother did. As an American, the news deeply shocked and saddened me. Rest In Peace, your majesty. You made a promise at age 21 and kept it throughout your life. 🕯 🇬🇧
I expect her to live to 100 and send herself a card
She was 96 years old, lost her husband and life partner just over a year ago, and had COVID this year which taxes a normal, younger, healthy body. She deserved to rest, may she forever Rest In Peace reunited with her dear Philip and her dear papa and mum and sister. 🙏🏼
It was almost as if she had set herself the goal of meeting with the new prime minister before she went to join Philip. That last picture of her, she had such wonderful smile, as if she knew her job was finally done and she could just let go. One incredible lady. R.I.P. now back with her beloved Philip.
A world without Queen Elizabeth doesn’t feel the same, she was the last of 20th century global icon to be living amongst us. RIP Your Majesty. 💔
Really true.
Passing quickly is considered a good death.
Good for the ones that pass but harder on their family.
I heard that too..from elders..growing up
At the age of 96 years and to lose her as our Queen is dreadfully sad . I myself was born in 1952 ; the first time I seen her to remember her was 50 years ago . Queen Elizabeth was gorgeous to look act ; amazingly so in fact , it was hard not to stare . Not only the most famous woman in the world but also the most beautiful . Remember her now but don't forget what was once there.
"I SEEN"???????? REALLY.......

I can't stand bad grammar but abhor bad manners even more. They left a touching and respectful heartfelt comment. Shame on you for making fun of them for a minor grammatical error.
I was Born in 1950 and can recall the death of King George V1 and our wonderful Queen's Coronation. She was the person I most admired. So sad to lose her.
What a woman! Her strength, her dignity, her work ethic. Rest well lovely Queen 👑
What an amazing Queen and life. She is such a good example of a Monarch. She will be missed. RIP ERII
My nurse friends have said the bruises on her hand could mean she was not get oxygen to her extremities, which would mean her body was already shutting down. It’s hard to imagine her being able to dress and meet with the PM in that case, but she was determined to fulfill her duties until her last breath. God Bless her sweet soul!
This is called actively dying. When my mother started transitioning in 2021 her doctor told us that transitioning can take from two to three months. My mother lost weight, ate very little and didn't want to drink liquids. The week of her death she lost all interest in food and liquids. Two days before her death just like the Queen, her hands, feet, and neck began to turn blue and black. The doctors explained that when the body starts shutting down the parts of the body furthest away from the heart isn't getting oxygen and starts to turn dark.
@@dorothysampson7414 that’s what I was told yesterday. I didn’t realize one was able to really function during that time, but I suppose every case is different. I first heard “actively dying” when a friend died about ten years ago. It seems to be a very apt description.
She was probably given some fluids and medicine from top of her hand. Those bruises are made by needles stuck on top of her hand i think.
@@itrcanokaygun9637 You're 100% right. I worked 30 years in ICU and saw this all the time. It's even happened to me personally with iv's. It's not related to hypoxia because her fingers and mouth aren't blue. Furthermore, she wouldn't be standing if it were hypoxia. She was being hydrated through an iv.
@@kimberlynolin2100 - thank you. I suspected that the discolouration was due to iv/cannula. Using her left hand suggested to me that Her Majesty was not steady with the right side of Her body.
Whatever the reasons, the passing of Her Majesty was so sudden - obviously surprising the family.
I still find it quite emotional & unreal knowing that our beloved Queen is now actually with Her parents & adored husband for All Eternity……
Life will never be the same.

An absolute legend is Lizzy. A heavy heart was felt when I heard the news of her passing. Thanks for being our Queen and you will be missed ❤️
Many of us in USA share your respect for the Queen. She was the epitome of a lady, dedicated to duty.
Though she was the queen not lizzy
I agree with your sentiments but Her Majesty was never “Lizzy” was she! No, she was never that.
That last picture of her when she received Liz Truss is precious. That darling smile. RIP your Majesty.
I hate to be a bearer of grim news but.....if your relatives or good friends who have passed, remember if in the final days before they left you, were their personality different than ordinary? thats a "sign"......even if one day, they tell you something like "wow!

She really pushed herself to the very end. Her badly bruised hands showed how sick she really was yet she carried on with a smile on her face. RIP Queen Elizabeth. Sleep peacefully.❤️
That bruise could've simply been from her knocking her hand on a door handle. Elderly people bruise so easily
Never complained.
Sometimes you just decide to let go. And she left on her own terms.
She really did
Live that long you tired, but covid was bad for her, then losing her husband
She seemed so sweet. Rip Queen Elizabeth 🥺
The woman was a MARVELl! Leader to the people along with "consistent allegiance to her faith." No stopping her at the Gate: "She, went straight to heaven!"
Too true-❤️😭
An extraordinary woman who led an extraordinary life. What else can one say about this woman who dedicated her entire life to the service of her country. So very sad. She will be missed the world over. RIP Your Majesty.
She was dieing in those photos.
One can say that she continued to allow the genocide of First Nations Peoples in many of the countries the British Empire unlawfully occupied.
Not British but I loved her ;dignified, graceful, patriotic, loyal, dutiful until the end. Rest In Peace beautiful lady you will be missed in this world full of people that are all about me, myself and I.
Yes you are right, Elizabeth (you share the same name!). So many people are very selfish, forgetting about the others, lack of courtesy and too much money. We will miss her. King Charles has a lot to come up to his Mother's famous image.
God bless Her Majesty. I’m a proud Royalist, and so very deeply saddened by her passing 😢 Sleep peacefully Queen Elizabeth, you can rest easy now 🙏🏻🕊🕊🕊♥️
It hurts so much to see such a wonderful queen mother gone , she will forever be in our heart my friend
So pleased to hear you say this, Aussiegal, because we know that Australia and also Canada were two Commonwealth countries Her Majesty loved. She loved every Commonwealth country, of course but, being human, we can’t help having our fondest memories!
THE WORLDS QUEEN!!!! AMERICA LOVES YOU!!!
Everyone needs to remember she was indeed 96. But not even 2 years ago her life mate, best friend, husband left her side. That absolutely affected her health I guarantee. My grandparents were married 70 years. Grief is a huge factor. She wanted to be with her Prince again 😊 just like my grandma first thought was joy for them that they are with their best friend.
When you live as long as the Queen did, there's no reason to be sad once they transition to their heavenly home .
She fulfilled her tour of duty as she promised at 21. A job well done ! A "Hero" always knows when to die. She was GREAT ! 💙🙏🇺🇸
She sure did!!😞♥️🇨🇦
A hero always knows when to die Our armed forces are true heroes In war they have little choice when to die Not the best way to say it
When I was working on a UK carehome, I remembered that when an elderly reached 100 years old, they will received a personal birthday card from the Queen. It was nice because the Queen remembers them.
Lmao. You think the Queen cared about peasants?
You certainly are what you're name implies.
@@brokenSnake Yes she do because she supports lots of charities and organisations.
You are too focus of the negativity.
Probably you don't feel or seen how the Queen's actions to you or others but to others, they do experience it and as a Non British, I have witness those elderly people who received personal birthday cards from the Queen and that is her way of support and bringing dignity to the elderly people.
@@rosannehernandez2514 for someone with 25 billion dollars, being part of 600 charities is no big deal. Come and talk to me if she had died poor. Secondly, the birthday cards are automated. The palace hired Deloitte and EY to build the system for them.
@@brokenSnake so if she died poor, is your perception of her changed? Even if those cards are automated, there is the good purpose of what are those cards from. If you have problems with the Queen, since she died address it to the other members of the Royal family especially to King Charles, maybe they can help you on what you are struggling at. Being skeptical about what she have done in the past is no good, it doesn't bring solutions and actions to what we are currently dealing with. She have already died.
Reminds me of my mother (very much a matriarch) who was perfectly well 2 days before she died. She was 95. I nursed her at home during that time. My 93 yo father is still fit and well, swimming or walking every day
wow congratulations for your mother and father, i was not that blessed, my mother died at 50 and my father at 62.
So glad she kept her brightness and her smile right to the end.
So beautifully laid out. No frills but raw honest truth that we as the public witnessed Amazing soundness of mind, strength and grace to the very end , wow. Her faith was strong.
She was magnificent ! Strong and classy ! God Bless her ! And the Royal Family 🙏🏾♥️
God bless her great lady xxx
I’m an 61yo American who’s also widowed and consider myself an Anglophile since my early teens... l’ve always admired Queen Elizabeth’s devotion to duty, fortitude an sense of humor. “How did this happen so fast?” For goodness sakes the woman was 96 years old and a mere 17 months earlier she lost her beloved husband of 74 years! COVID-19? I personally believe the Queen died of a broken heart from missing her husband. May she finally Rest In Peace with her beloved Phillip.
She was saddened, but she was a realist too. Her husbands passing did show on her but cant believe she was heartbroken. After all, His Royal Highness Prince Philip did live to be nearly 100! And healthy. A blessing in itself..
Honestly, that’s the way to go. Live a productive, long lived life and go quickly.
she didn't go quickly, it took 96 years
She looked amazing 👏 two days before she left she died naturally peacefully xx and now with phillip in heaven xxx
not for us to know where they are.
God Bless her, this is all true, i took care of my mom and she passed away at 93, slow process of going downhill and not having much of an appetite, a ripe old graceful age, we will love them and miss them for the rest of our days , prayers to the royal family, we only get one mom xoxox
There will never be another woman in history like our Gracious Majesty Queen Elizabeth II! It was sad to see how frail she was and her bruised hand which she extended to Prime Minister Liz Truss in what would be the last photograph taken of her with her irrepressible smile! May she rest in eternal peace!🙏🌷
I’m happy that Queen Elizabeth didn’t suffer. This was one very special woman. She put her duties first always. There was a special welcome for the Queen into heaven. A double rainbow over the crowd of people outside the palace as they gathered to mourn their Lovely Queen Elizabeth
REST IN PEACE DEAR QUEEN ELIZABETH. YOU FULFILLED YOUR PROMISE TO LIVE A LIFE OF SERVICE. Now you’re with your Beloved Family Members you have missed for many years. I’m first generation American. My Father was from Ireland and always Lovingly referred to Queen Elizabeth as
“My Little Princess!” He came to America when The Queen was still a child and she was loved by people you wouldn’t have expected. People from Southern Ireland 🇮🇪. In many ways Queen Elizabeth was my Queen too.
For the few subjects who hate her , bear in mind that she loved you, her people.
100% right.
@@rashmivarma3390 I miss her. I have seen her a few times in my life but al I know she was a force for unity around the Commonwealth. A great legacy.
In 2017 I visited my mom who was 87yrs old and spent the day with her. I was amazed to see her looking so happy young and peaceful as she sat by her kitchen door. Even though she had a history of diabetes and few ailments she looked ten years younger and despite her few ailments like diabetes... heart problems she was looking good with a sound mind ..great memory..not senile at all and extremely intelligent and knowledgeable.
To cut a long story short my mom was rushed to hospital the following morning without our knowledge. People at the complex phoned an ambulance as she had a panic attack during the night. My mom wasnt able to get hold of anyone of my siblings nor me as she wanted us to know that a certain doctor at Somerset Hospital who was not able to get hold of her folder as it went missing conveniently was attended to and the doctor took the initiative to send her to Groote Schuur for a pacemaker....something my mother refused to have all these years. However by 10am my mom had passed away due to the negligence of a doctor at Groote Schuur who admitted that the machine overheated as he was busy elsewhere. We were devastated and myself and two siblings tried to seek justice but to no avail.
My point is no one knows when we are going to die..only our Creator. When someone lives past 70yrs we live on borrowed time. The queen was fortunate to die at 96yrs and she had a sound mind and looked good at that age. Im 71yrs old and Im being told I look much younger. Im proud thanks to God and I live one day at a time. I do not fear to die but really still want to live until Jesus comes. I have four children and five grandchildren. As parents we want to be around for them and because life is wonderful when you have a relationship with God despite the heartache pain and suffering in this world.
I had Covid thrice doctored myself and feel blessed.
For me, our beloved Queen Elizabeth II was "dead" on April 9, 2021, when Prince Philip left this earth.
I have a thought on this sad day for ALL those who have served her so faithfully for decades: her family members, her very discreet and knowledgeable doctors, the very devoted Angela Kelly, the guards, the keeper of the royal stamps, the drivers, all the housekeeping staff, the butlers, cooks and chefs, the royal diver, the curator of frames and that of furniture, the queen's mistress of music, the communication officers, her private secretaries + all those I could not mention. THANK YOU 🙏🙏🙏

Organised and recognised in their duties
And reponsibilites.

To make it clear what great people she is, perhaps to those who don't love them, Queen Elizabeth in 2016 sent a lot of funds to help the people of Abruzzo devastated by the earthquake.
We of Abruzzo will never forget what the queen has done for us.
Honorable mention, in the 70s king giorgio came many times to visit the national park of abruzzo, he has always been enthusiastic.

@@linanicolia1363 What utter rubbish We have a lady of 103 and she's still a dinner lady Think before you spout
One of a kind, never to be repeated. God Bless you lady.
At her age grief and ill health takes a hell of a toll on your body, she had her "strength and stay" by her side for over 70 years, that's her whole life. It was only a matter of time before she was reunited with her dear husband that she loved dearly. She couldn't live without him.
A great inimitable figure, as an Italian I had a lot of sympathy and administration for this woman, she best represented the great tradition of the Crown.
What an amazing lady. I will remember her as my Queen who worked for so long and so hard that she was still working until at least 10 days after she died. She strategically passed in Balmoral thereby instigating a 500 mile journey that will reinforce the bonds of two Kingdoms and even now lies in state as a symbol of unity to a global Commonwealth. That's a stateswoman for you! The Queen was easily THE most famous living person in our lives ... and yet I never saw her on such a list. Her face, on the currencies of 35 Nations, was so ubiquitous that we longer even saw her. And now that she's gone we will miss her.
According to Lady C, she passed from bone cancer..but I can't believe just two days before her passing she met with the new PM.
I had a tremendous amount of respect for this grand lady!
Rest in peace your Majesty!

Does Lady C really know anything?! I cannot imagine anyone close to the royal family actually giving her any I side info! Do they even like her and all her gossipy “truths?”

I have such deep respect and love for H.R.H, she will be sorely missed. What amazes me the most however is that she took each passing of a loved one in stride. When someone is young, there’s always that knowledge that one day everyone you grew up with will pass on, but to keep going and with such strength, it’s truly something amazing.
Her sitting alone at Phillips funeral was so heartbreaking I couldn’t stand to watch n then lowering the casket right in front of her. 🥲
If your respect was that deep, why did you refer to HM as HRH?

They were telling each other as more joined them that she passed at 2:37 their time and she had bone cancer. Now her appearance makes sense. It is painful. Her right calf and ankle were swollen. Her hand was purple. Look at the picture from Tues with PM.
If she did indeed have bone cancer she is even more remarkable working to the end.
I wish we did know what happened.
Could of been heart disease your calves and feet swell from water settling in your heart is not pumping like it should.
when two people love each other so much that when one passes the one left behind follows sooner.
She was a very blessed woman. So glad that I lived through her reign. ❤️
I’m a nurse practitioner, I kinda thought at her 70’s birthday ( the second one) she did like very unwell. She still stood, but could not take all the parties in her favor. I was just going to say that,she lost her husband of 70plus years exactly 17 months and I believe 12 days. I knew this was going to happen, surprised it lasted this long. She had lots of help and family who loved her. Lots of people loved the Queen 🫅. Evening Paddington 🐻. She was amazed at the IT technology it took to get that 45 second skit together. That will be something so cool for her great grands to see when they are older.💜🐻💐👑
Queen Elizabeth ❤️
Love the positivity of this correspondent also
I think she would had continued well into the hundred, but, by her own admission, covid left her tired and exhausted. I really believe covid was responsible because even if you recover you can have long covid, let alone getting covid at 96 years old.
Ines, i feel the same.
There’s no such thing as long covid - the immune system response to the virus creates a wound - when you’re younger and healthier you can recover from this wound a lot better. For her, yes, the long term effects may have included some reduced capacity. I suspect it was COVID - which is a respiratory disease illness, contributed to her decline.
As a psychic when I saw the photo of the Queen smiling & greeting holding out her hand to greet the new P.M.
Then I noticed the bruises on her hand and how drawn it looked and right away I knew that she did not have long to go. I was not surprised when she passed two days later. She missed her Philip too, dreadfully, and she was ready to go to him anyway. Now she's with him and happy.
she had that issue with the hands for some years already.
Whatever you reckon. .next! The mark on her hand is common with elderly. It does not mean imminent death.
@dboy 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I did not see the bruises at first but looking at the picture on Tuesday she honestly did not look well. I honestly did not think she had much longer. But honestly I was pretty much waiting for it since Phillip Died.
@@cathybaldry7822 I would not like people to see mine, I am on a blood thinner because I had a stroke two years ago. I am always bruised, hate taking the medicine but I have no choice. My skin is so thin there have been times when I have bumped into something that it will tear right back and bleed. I need a coat of armor.
Widowhood is devastating. My husband and I didn't have the greatest marriage and we had actually separated in Sept. 2020. He was only turning 68 and I was 74 but he died suddenly just before New Year's, four months after our separation. The shock was like nothing I have ever experienced and I lost both my parents before I turned 30. I am completely alone now so I just had to plow thru despite living in Israel where my Hebrew was nearly non-existent. It has gotten much better, including reading. It simply had to and all this without a community of friends because he was actually mentally unwell and that prevented us from having a circle of friends. I can't imagine what would have happened if we had had a close, loving marriage. I probably wouldn't be here to write this. We were together for 32 years. I think only the loss of a child would be worse.
I lost my ex husband of 32 yrs unexpectedly 6yrs after we separated, we had remained good friends, but the grief is very real..
@@dorothywilliams9967 Yes, it is.
@@Meira750 Bless you..being positive is easier said than done, life seems to go on in a different way when we're older, but it's still a life and at 79 is still precious to me...and every new day is treasured inspite of health issues...I hope you find peace..
@@dorothywilliams9967 Thanks Dorothy, I have. I hope you have too.
This woman vowed to be in service to her country her entire life. She was a woman of her word. 🇬🇧
what an incredible person the Queen was - what an amazing phenomenal life. I will miss her for sure but so honored to have lived in her time.
A wonderful lady who had a great life! She will be missed by so many people. Glad she enjoyed her jubilee in June.
The Queen is a woman to look up to. Obviously, to me anyway, she was tenacious to fulfill her duties to her county until the end. Perhaps she kept herself going until she could welcome the new Prime Minister and then said to herself “I’m done”.
What duty?
molley pants, i am american, but i followed the life of queen elizabeth and learned a lot of graciousness, courtesy, and other beautiful features from your queen. i loved her and still do. rebecca newman
The Queen had the right people in the right corner of her life she was taken care of very well so it's just old age nothing more.
It was bone cancer
Totally agree one can go to bed fine but not wake up next morning it's the way our bodies work. I once had a patient eat her turkey Christmas lunch but before Christmas pudding was served died and didn't choke either before anyone suggests.
Her heart was broken 💔
Philip her rock was not there to help her carry the burdens regarding Harry, his wife and Andrew.
She was not provided the privilege to grieve and mourn in a healthy manner, the passing of PP.
May she rest in peace
H should be ashamed of himself. I think Andrew made amends with his mother. As long as H is with this ghastly woman he will keep sinking.
@@roselee2397 Not the right forum for discussing family troubles. This is about homage to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth.
Imagine that pic 2 days before she died she have that smile still on duty what a devoted queen she was!
Had such a beautiful smile and such a remarkable person!!! May she rest in peace!!
A beautiful sweet smile.
Dr. Mansberg presented this story so well and positively, thank you! Unquestionably, the loss of the Queen is sad, but she frames the whole story beautifully: who would not want to live with all the mental faculties present, still physically able to carry oneself, still work, and yes, after the loss of her partner of so many decades. I strongly feel that the Queen did an exemplary job in heading the British Royal family, evolving with the times, and dealing with heartache so stoicly. She is a highly-respected historical figure for a reason. Nothing succeeds like excellence. Godspeed, HM Queen Elizabeth II.
What more can really be said. One can hope that she left with a smile in her face and peace in her heart. May she now rest in the peace she deserves. 🙏🙏😔
She once said that grief is the price we have to pay for love. She was right.
When you think of her activity level, it may have been supporting her vitality more than taxing her! Blood flow, engagement, great for her mind and her physical health. Her work kept her active. (My mother retired at 79 from her bank job. Only after that did she decline. She told me to work til I’m 80). I plan to work all my life at something meaningful, as beautiful Queen Elizabeth did ❤️
Omg. Jenni has no idea what happened so why keep asking questions she has no way of answering. Waste of an interview.
Waste of time
Beautiful to the end. I’ve admired her for decades. It’s still hard to believe that she is gone.
Yep.
A resilient wonderful wonderful lady, leading by example to the end.
Good grief. Queen Elizabeth aged very gracefully, folks. Appreciate her for that.
She (the woman in pink on the right starting at 2:09 ) was WAY too smiley given the circumstances :(
She was a supreme statesperson to the end, even with a huge cannula bruise on her right hand. And she may have smiled at lasting long enough to see Boris out of office - so he couldn’t bookend Churchill & remain PM during her mourning period, and insult us all with a well-written yet hypocritical & insincere speech he believed would re-ignite his own popularity. This photo just shows her as she always was - a woman of dignity, honour, intelligence, humour & humility.
@@Shelsight I meant that woman in pink being interviewed starting at 2:09 , not the queen herself.
May we so live to enjoy that day when the Lord may say to us, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.” (Matt. 25:21.)
Two of my grandparents just didn't wake up one day. It happens.
Isn't that the way we all wish we could die?
I hope it happens to me.Im Venice
