I wish the King a speedy recovery, I hope all is well and in time he will be much better. I was hoping that Prince Felipe would have some time to be able to enjoy his young family before he had to take over, even a regent, his girls are still pretty young.

The knee surgery probably has to happen, when looking at the King I am sure there is more, he has been looking ill for some time now, but its a sensitive topic and admitting more other than what cannot be denied could be suicide for the institution.
A visibly declining health of JC, especially over a long time period, will lead to a discussion about the monarchy itself what the SRF is dreading. Looking at an ailing King for months in this political climate could lead to the public asking whether they need a King at all, the young and unemployed could figure that Spain doesnt. Dynamics can be dangerous. It would be a different matter if the King would drop dead and Felipe is his successor, no time for a public debate in this case.

So true. The last thing any monarchist would need is a long debate about the usefulness and need of the institution of monarchy during this financial situation.
I wish the King a speedy recovery and many more years on the throne.

Thanks for all the pictures from today. In this picture, Prince Felipe looks like he is describing a new born baby to the press

I'm amazed that he is out of the hospital so soon after a total knee replacement. A close relative had this done recently and wasn't released so quickly and didn't look as good upon leaving! Here's hoping his recovery goes well.

he will need therapy for his knee, and maybe he wants to be attended on private.

I wish and pray for a great swift recovery for His Majesty, and something tells me he is NOT ready to be put out to pasture just yet. Still has a lot of fighting spirit left in him: VIVA EL REY!

He will need therapy for months, and you are probably correct that he would prefer to be at home for all of this.

My husband had a total knee replacement 9 months ago. It takes time and a lot of work on the patient's part, but you get up and about as soon as possible. It is more complicated than a hip replacement and takes more time to rehab, but the results should be good.

He's going to spend a couple of weeks in the same hospital where he was operated last year in Barcelona for physical therapy.
