I disagree:
The Royal Household has said that she has had a relapse, but has not said that she is in critical condition, or that her end is near, as the Spanish press is claiming.
I think King Constantine always expressed his wish to die in Athens, and as his health worsened, a year before his death he sold his house in Porto Heli and settled in Athens to fulfill his last wish.
Prince Michel lived in France; he resided in Athens seasonally, but his usual residence was in Paris. When he fell ill, and the treatment failed, he settled in Athens, aware that he was in the final stage of his life.
I remember Princess Irene walking through the Tatoi cemetery during a Greek interview in 2007. She felt Greek and sensed a special energy in that cemetery. Based on everything she said and what we've read in her biography in Spain, I believe she, too, should die in Athens when the time comes.
Therefore, I believe Princess Irene may have had a relapse of her illness (the exact nature of which we don't know), but that doesn't mean she's fading away, as the press claims.
I think this should be taken into consideration, since what the Spanish Royal Household has said is that she has had a relapse... I think this possibility should also be considered.
This afternoon I was watching a Spanish television program that was talking about Queen Sofia, and I found it cruel. They were even discussing the Princess's funeral and where she would be buried.
She is alive, and her specific state of health is not known to the press. They shouldn't play with this, because it is cruel.
I pray for the Princess.
