Terelyn Marks Agreed -- I wouldn't want to come to his notice! It could go badly.

Terelyn Marks I've long suspected untreated diabetes too. Just from th leg ulcers.

Rebecca Yes, I think by the end Henry VIII was quite mad and a tyrant too boot! Pity his poor wives.

Suzanne Reed Hi. I just, within the last 15 minutes, finished The King's Curse. My mind is still reeling, and probably will for several days. You made me look at Henry VIII in a whole new light. He must have been mad, a stark raving lunatic. I absolutely loved Margaret and her family, and the Plantaganets are my favorite area of British history. She was a new chapter to explore. Thank you so much for writing such a great book!

Bonnie Landino Absolutely, in today's time, he would be diagnosed with mental illnesses, of course physical problems galore. He was a very sick man, mentally and physically. It's a shame they knew nothing in that day and age. I often wonder how he would have been, had he had no mental or physical issues. He was obviously crazy , and in constant pain later on in his life. A sad mess, Bonnie
