I think there’s something wrong with her eye in this photo, perhaps a large broken blood vessel. I’m going to assume it was heart or stroke related.

I agree with what some others have stated, that the Queen and her family have known for sometime this was coming. I don’t think there was any disease as such, just a winding down for lack of a better phrase. I think all efforts were put into “propping her up” so to speak to get her thru the events of the last year. The bruised hands, the bloodshot eye, those are common in the elderly coming to the end. I saw it in my mother. At the end, as my mother’s doctor explained to me, the body starts to cascade, starts to shut down. I think that’s what happened Thursday morning - her care team noticed the change in her vitals and knew this was it. The cascade from onset can be quick, a few hours, or it could be a day or two. With my mother, similar to HM, she was lively, animated, chatty on the Tuesday with her siblings coming for a last visit to say goodbye. By Wednesday afternoon, she was in and out of consciousness but still lucid when awake. By Thursday morning she slipped into that deep sleep, and passed around 1PM that afternoon. Like one of my aunt’s remarked after, given how animated, chatty she was just 2 days before, “the candle always burns brightest before it burns itself out”.

R24, I'm an ICU nurse and hadn't seen that picture before. That doesn't look like cyanosis to me, cyanosis is the pale blue tinge that you see when tissues are temporarily short of oxygen. That looks more like bruising, or worse... what we call "mottling". "Mottling" is what you see when the tissues are so deprived of oxygen that cells actually start to *die*, which does mean that the body is about to shut down.
It might just be bruising, possibly from repeated IV starts or blood draws, because you don't usually see the mottling I'm referring to on people who are still up and walking. Usually you see it when a person is in the ICU on a ventilator and other means of extreme life support.

As others have pointed out, in the photos from Tuesday, her fingers were blue a clear sign off peripheral cyanosis which means a lack of oxygenated blood flowing to the extremities. Given how noticeable it is in the photos and added to that her swollen legs I would suggest the Queen was undergoing pallative care. The lack of oxygenated blood likely would explain why the Queen was very fatigued in recent days & it's likely she died of a massive stroke due to lack of oxygenated blood to the brain.

I guess that personally I didn't read into the British news coverage and the Royals' communications that the Queen was being seen as that much closer to the end than I'd thought about. I started to wonder if they were trying to prepare the media public when the BBC covered the Jubilee goings-on this past summer and editorialized that we were witnessing the Queen essentially saying goodbye and a close to her participation part in British royal history. But then the other day when they broadcast that her family members were rushing to her residence to be with her, that's I guess when it really sank in for me and many others that this was it. What helped make it seem so weirdly unreal still, was those photos of her meeting the new Prime Minister just a couple of days before, and the fact that she...she just seemed, as so many have said...so constant, so always dependably "there." Then Thursday weather- and news-wise turned out to be as royally gloomy, sad and somber, as her celebrations and few appearances during this past summer's Jubilee Weekend seemed so joyful, happy and sunny. It was as if, her pending end notwithstanding, even in these last few months she willed herself to remain in place for her subjects and family for the Jubilee celebration and then to usher in one more new Prime Minister. She really appeared to be a very strong-willed person. RIP.

I think R37 is on to something. The swollen ankles and feet are usually a pretty good indication that the heart is losing its ability to pump, and at her age with a weakened heart she probably suffered from atrial fibrillation for which she would be on blood thinners for stroke prophylaxis. That would explain the severe bruising on her hands from any blood work or IVs.

Two things piqued my curiosity: The queen's physician was a gastroenterologist. That's unusual for a specialist to be her GP. So she must have had some difficulties with her GI tract either upper or lower or both. Second thing: I have noticed that she has been losing weight very gradually in the past two years. Especially the past year. THey have tried to camoflauge this but it was noticeable. So this brings me to speculate about whether or not she did have some form of cancer and there was nothing much they could do about it. Certainly chemo or surgery once she hit her 90's was prohibitive. She could have also had Congestive Heart Failure as well, but I think Cancer is always a possibility. I am also curious about what some of you were saying about COVID's after effects. Can someone elaborate?

She started going downhill a couple of years ago. If you look back at the Covid speech at the beginning of the pandemic, she looked magnificent for a woman in her early 90’s. There was news that she was advised to stop drinking to build her strength for the jubilee, so she was probably on medication so she couldn’t drink. Then came gradual weight loss which suddenly increased. It all point to some form of cancer.
As others have mentioned, once you get to a very old age, chemo etc is pointless, you have to die of something. You can be ill but get bursts of energy, enough to do a little, which sounds very much how the Queen was in her final weeks. Decisions on if she would attend jubilee events were made at the last hour.

At the Queen's extreme age, it was always a question of what took her first: sheer age or the cancer. So it would have been lightly managed. However, it was completely right for Lady Colin Campbell to allege that the stress of the last 3 years may have weakened her and induced it. It certainly poisoned her last years. That being the Andrew circus, and Harry & MM circus. Campbell claims that the absolute killer was MM's lies of racism – this directly hit at the Queen's work in building Commonwealth diplomacy which was a passion for her and to which she had devoted a lifetime too.
Even in her self-focus and selfishness, clearly MM had no comprehension of the scale of this, and the commitment, and perhaps even SHE would not have peddled such a lie had she understood the ramifications of it. The fact Harry didn't stop her, knowing his grandmother's work, highlights his own stupidity, deep ingratitude, gross selfishiness, and the reality he is in MM's thrawl.

I believe she may have had inoperable cancer, but who knows… cancer is very slow moving in the elderly because their metabolism has slowed down quite a bit. It’s obvious I guess that she didn’t have chemotherapy. This is why sudden weight loss is troubling in the elderly. Yes, they don’t eat as much but they also have a slow metabolism, so weight loss should be gradual. Didn’t her husband die of bladder cancer? I think he had it treated, right? He was hospitalized a number of times, whereas she was only hospitalized once that we know of.

He wasn't sick, always seemed to be alert and in good health, but he did slow down a bit in his last two years. Then, he was in the hospital. I think he was just ready to go.

At the time of the death of George V, the publication of afternoon/evening newspapers were considered less respectable and somewhat tabloid-like, in contrast to the staid long-established morning newspapers.
On the evening of January 20, 1936, Queen Mary made the decision and told the King's personal physician Lord Dawson of Penn that he should "not prolong the King's life unnecessarily", which the doctor understood to mean that he should end it.
According to Dawson's notes released in 1986, Dawson then administered the lethal dose of drugs, peace had descended upon the King within 15 minutes and 25 minutes later, he was dead. With the whole business transacted before midnight, which allowed the preferred newspaper "The Times" to break the news of the King's death in its morning edition.
From the physician's notes: “The determination of the time of death of the King’s body had another object in view, viz the importance of the death receiving its first announcement in the morning papers rather than the less appropriate field of the evening journals.”
The whole newspaper business aside - I'd be glad for the comfort of a little morphine or other injections myself when the time comes.

Oh bullshit! I'm an ICU nurse, and strokes can hit anyone who's unlucky enough, even if they seem to be in excellent health, and although medical interventions are better they can still leave people disabled even if they get treatment as fast as possible.
Modern medical science can only do so much for a large hemorrhagic stroke, for instance, and if the bruising on Her Majesty's hands was really due to "blood thinners", that is the kind of stroke she would have been likely to have. And I agree, if she'd had a large hemorrhagic stroke, better not to survive it.

She missed talking to him, I'm sure, missed the sound of his voice. Missed coordinating schedules, etc. but as for family drama, elderly folk reach a certain point where they "let go" of things. They care, but they have little energy to spend on things. Even Andrew. No one knows better than she did, how often Andrew made a mess others had to clean up.

Queen's cause of death may be revealed next week after royal mourning period ends
The registration of deaths in Scotland is compulsory in accordance with the Registration of Births, Deaths and Marriages (Scotland) Act of 1965.
This act states that "the death of every person dying in Scotland" must be registered.
This includes the submission of a death certificate to a registrar, which must be done within seven days of the death occurring.
If the Queen had died in England, there would be no requirement to release an official cause of death because the Registration Act of 1836 does not apply to monarchs.
In Scotland, doctors must report all deaths which are "sudden, suspicious, accidental or unexplained" to the Crown Office.

Charles was nearby and Anne was right there on site at Balmoral with her husband. So clearly they knew she was failing. Have any of you been around a dying person. Their system starts shutting down. And when it does, for example if you ever had to deal with hospice, it can take hours or a few days. I think that's where they were. They were at that point.
It took a whole lot to get her ready to meet the new PM. She was already looking grey ish under all the make up which tells me that her heart and lungs were not working very efficiently. I think it was cardio-pulmonary in nature. Now, IMO I'm curious about Charles and Anne being there. Clearly the RF didn't want to alarm the world.
They didn't want to give anything away, IMO. If everyone had gone to Balmoral it would have alerted the emdia and the government. I think they just wanted her to go quietly and she did. But much faster than expected. Which happens. I have sat there watching for what seemed like hours, and then at some point the person plateaus and goes very f ast. Once Charles realized that this was it, he called Edward, William Andrew and Harry.

They got her capping stone on fairly quickly. I guess it has been ready for a long time, just missing the final year. I really like her choice to be buried with her parents and sister (not on the stone)
Anyone know why Margaret was cremated? So she could fit in there?

She was only 96 and had her whole life ahead of her!

She was 96, and had kept going to do her duty, as she saw it, until the very end. Many old people do this, and then very suddenly they instinctively know that they are done.
I watched it happen with my own mother. Her health was failing, but she kept going to see her first great-grandchild. Then she kept going to see my nephew get married, knowing that her presence there meant the world to him. She celebrated the wedding, had a wonderful time, looked great and was interested in chatting to everyone there. And the day after the wedding, she ate very little. And then she stopped eating entirely. She dies of pneumonia less than 3 weeks after the wedding.
I think the Queen kept going through covid, firstly because she gave her “we will meet again” speech and actually meant it. When she could get out in public meeting people again, she did, and seemed to enjoy it. And then she kept going because the jubilee was around the corner. And then she knew that a new PM was due to come into office.
However, her physical strength was ebbing away. What would her life have been like if she had limped on for a year or two? She has been used to an active life and an important role. Increasing decrepitude would have been a sad end to that.
She was a 96 year-old devoutly religious lady, and was probably convinced that she would be reunited with her husband in the afterlife. I think she had had enough, and sensed that she had no strength left, so she arranged to go to the home she loved best, and where she felt most free, to have one last summer of family visits, picnics and scenic views. And then that was coming to an end.
We may never know, but I bet her appetite was failing, and that’s why her family was taken by surprise. When an elderrly person stops eating or drinking, things can go wrong very quickly.

Its too bad she could not hang on till 100, like her mother did or even Philip who was just a month shy of 100. Of course, most people wish he had kicked it 20 years ago. But at least 4 more years of Elizabeth would have ment 4 less years of Charles, a good thing and Horsemilla, a great thing!

There’s a certain dignity in seeing ‘old age’ stated simply, on a death certificate, as cause of death in a person of advanced years. In many cases, however, medics go over board to cover themselves with a long list which can include, for example, ‘depression’ and ‘alcoholism’ as secondary causes after three or four other medical conditions. This can create unnecessary distress among relatives. One of my colleagues refers to the more detailed as listing ‘everything including what they last had for breakfast’. Was it a gin and Dubonnet cocktail your majesty?

R233 - from what I've read, Margaret did indeed choose to be cremated so she could fit in the chapel. She loved her father and wanted to be laid to rest with him, and she considered Frogmore - where she was due to be buried - "gloomy". Cremation seems a bit unbecoming for a royal, actually! I'm surprised she chose that.

Princess Louise, daughter of Queen Victoria was cremated following her death at Kensington Palace in 1939. Coincidentally, Louise was the previous resident of Margaret's apartment 1A. Louise's apartment was so large it was divided into to two. (Apartment 1 housed Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent.)

It's ironic that Margaret, who has the reputation of being quite punctilious about how non-royals should deal with her, did many things that royals tend not to do: be cremated, have an affair/affairs, divorce... She also wanted to marry a divorcé but backed out when told it would lead to her losing her privileged lifestyle (not much of a love story!)

R225: “Okay, maybe Andrew being disgraced hurt, but by all accounts she didn't see what the fuss was about, royal men all use high-end prostitutes.”
Any links etc you can provide to back up that “..by all accounts she didn’t see what the fuss was about”? I highly doubt there are like you say, and this sounds much more like your opinion being stated like a fact. While I agree the queen has seen her share of scandals come and go, in no universe would the queen, a devout conservative woman, would have that slip in the wrong company al over the place for it to get out there. Please do prove me wrong with a reliable source though.
Also, I highly doubt that a woman nearing the end of her 70 year reign wouldn’t have cared about the future of the monarchy she spent her whole life protecting, when her grandson made allegations of racism. Especially when they have been trying desperately to hold the commonwealth together and avoid so many Caribbean countries and others from screaming “colonialism” and declaring themselves republics. In terms of the real future of the monarchy, it makes the Diana stuff look like child’s play.

I think she simply died of a broken heart after her beloved husband Philip died.

R251 the funny thing about that was in public she had never been seen smiling and laughing so much as after the official mourning period for Philip ended. Maybe just a brave face but it was noted at the time how cheerful she had been looking. Perhaps she was thinking about her own passing and trying to set an example about moving forward.
It seemed to me that the real decline began after she contracted COVID from Charles in February. She commented later on a zoom call (vs a live visit somewhere) that the fatigue remaining after COVID is very difficult. Suddenly events in early spring started getting cancelled left right and centre, then came the cane, then the noticeable weight loss. Getting COVID at 96 - even a mild case- would be difficult to overcome, especially with other health issues that would have likely been there already by that age.

They did know something. The few weeks running up to her passing there were reports that Charles was going there every day in the morning. And he had that heartbroken look he had in the photo of his visit(s) to Philip.

Camilla is/was a smoker. Come to think of it, so was Catherine Wales until she and William married and were trying to start a family. And the ALL drink. Camilla certainly does. And English "cuisine" is a heart attack waiting to happen. So they all had unhealthy habits. Although I believe Catherine and William have reformed.
