Duke of Edinburgh

Unread post by Boris+ »

The news is saying that the Duke of Edinburgh is going into hospital again - for two weeks. Hopefully the experts will sort out whatever it is that has caused him discomfort recently and he will be back at home in time for the imminent royal birth.

It is a bit worrying though.

He looked quite poorly at the Coronation Celebration Service yesterday. I do hope he soon improves and is quickly back by his wife's side.

Hopefully he has a speedy recovery ... I love his one liners and his total lack of political correctness (which I am sure he does just to liven up his life)

I too hope he makes a good recovery. I too thought he looked tired and poorly the other day and expect he dusted himself down for the occasion rather than miss it. Best wishes to him.

He is remarkable. I think the Palace are making light of his condition.. he is to be in hospital for two weeks. That is a long time when you consider he can have complete care at home. Also, docs do not administer a full anaesthetic unnecessarily, especially on a 92 year old. I hope he recovers well, and speedily.

Poor old bugger ... there'll be something to sort out at his age for sure but let's hope he comes through ok and that nothing too drastic needs to be done.

Good luck :thumbup:

It was good to see him the other day, but he did look rather poorly. I wish him well and hope he is soon back home. :thumbup:
