I'm sure that she herself (and her doctors, advisers and family) are fully aware of the implications and realities of aging and will plan and have planned accordingly.
Over the years, she has said that her Vows are unbreakable and she wishes to honour them "for the whole of her life"
Some, or many, of Her day to day 'Duties' can be amended or delegated to allow that, as circumstances dictate.
I see no problem, just an unwanted interest by many outsiders to micro-manage someone else's life.
