The Death of His Majesty King George VI

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

𝒟𝑒𝒸𝓁𝒾𝓃𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝐻𝑒𝒶𝓁𝓉𝒽

In 1939, The United Kingdom entered into the World War 2. The stress of the war & almost being killed at Buckingham Palace with his wife by 2 German Bombs, took a toll on King George’s health. The King began to develop many health issues, some problems like Lung Cancer coming from his heavy smoking addiction. Due to King George's declining health he had to: Postpone a tour of Australia & New Zealand in March 1949, have his daughter Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II & His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh do a month long tour of Canada after the tour had been delayed for a week in October 1951, in November 1951 the King's State Opening of Parliament had to be read by Lord Chancellor The Right Honorable Gavin Turnbull Simonds, 1st Viscount Simonds from his throne, & his 1951 Christmas Broadcast had to be recorded in sections & edited.

Lung Cancer: Lung Cancer claims more lives each year than any other cancer like prostate or breast. People who smoke have the greatest risk of lung cancer because the chance can increase over the length of time of smoking, what you’re smoking, & how much you have smoked over that period of time. Smoking can cause damage to the cells that line the lungs & change the lung tissue. King George’s left lung was removed by Welsh thoracic surgeon Sir Clement Price Thomas, after a malignant (cancerous) tumor was found in the lung on Sunday, September 23rd, 1951.

Atherosclerosis: A build up of cholesterol plague in the walls of arteries causing obstruction of blood flow. This can cause the arteries to harden & narrow which causes the blood flow to be blocked. It’s normally what causes heart attacks & strokes. King George developed an Arterial Blockage in his right leg, which then turned to threaten his left leg but was treated with a surgical procedure called Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy in 1949.

Buerger's Disease: A rare disease of the arteries & veins in both the arms & the legs. The blood vessels become inflamed, swell, & can become blocked with blood clots. This eventually damages or destroys skin tissues & can lead to either infection or gangrene.

On Thursday, January 31st, 1952, His Majesty King George traveled to Heathrow Airport to say goodbye to Elizabeth & Phillip before they began their tour in Australia via Kenya. The King was not advised by family, friends, & his doctor to not go to the airport. That night when the King traveled to Sandringham House & went to bed, he had suffered from Coronary Thrombosis in his sleep. He was found dead the next morning.

Coronary Thrombosis: A formation of a blood clot inside a blood vessel of the heart caused by a buildup of cholesterol & fats in the artery walls. This blood clot restricts blood flow within the heart & the blood will clot because there is not enough room for it to flow. The causes of CT are high LDL Cholesterol, Smoking, Sedentary Lifestyle, & Hypertension.

An Account Announcement

Hey y’all. I know I have been completely silent on this account. I have been slowly updating biographies of the family, retagging posts, & trying to organize my account. Also my personal life outside of social media, has been an up & down rollercoaster of emotions these past few months. With being back at my job, currently in the final few weeks of my 2nd summer college semester (I did a summer semester in 2019), slowly rebuilding bridges in relationships with friends & family, & just dealing with my mental health, I have been so freaking exhausted. I have been trying to catch up on my social media but there are times I need to pull away. I will keep working on this account to re-do it, organize it, & have it to where my account makes me super happy. It will be slow steps coming back so if you start noticing small changes, I’m here. Also I know there is a ton going on in the world & if ANYONE needs me, please know my message & question boxes are always open for support! I love y’all so freaking much! ~ Kendall

Hello Everyone!

While I’m currently going through a lot right now with my hours getting possibly changed at work next week, having the kids I work with back on campus next week (pray for me & my co-workers), I’m starting up my Fall 2020 college semester, & some other personal things, I’m not really creating content for any of my social media’s. I found this on Instagram & wanted to see what my followers would think! Let me know who you choose! I chose Palace 1 or 3!

Do you know who that lady is to Williams left (my right) in your header picture? Cause I’ve never seen her before and I thought you might know 😊

Do you mean the right? To his left is his wife Her Royal Highness Catherine The Duchess of Cambridge but to William’s right is one of Lady Helen Taylor’s daughters. I’m not sure which twin it is, but the twin’s names are Eloise Olivia Katherine Taylor & Estella Olga Elizabeth Taylor. I hope this helped! 💕☺️
