Prince battle growing older and his faith, The purple spendor still has it but can he move like he used too? Right now Prince needs an alleged hip replacement, but is refusing it because of his Jehovah’s Witness beliefs. Will Prince keep to his faith or do what is needed to keep walking?
This is where faith and medicine cross the fine line and a person is made to make a choice that will effect their life forever. No more hot women and six inch heels!The Purple One’s Jehovah’s Witness beliefs prevent him from accepting blood transfusions – making an alleged double hip replacement operation impossible
Sign o’ the times … Prince is allegedly refusing a hip replacement operation.
Will Prince be forced to choose between his faith and his health? Persistent hip problems are affecting the Purple One’s mobility, according to reports, and his religious beliefs are preventing surgery.
As a Jehovah’s Witness, Prince has allegedly refused blood transfusions – making a double hip replacement operation impossible.
“He’s in a lot of pain,” a source told the Hollywood Report’s Showbiz 411 blog this week. “[Prince] is popping pain killers and hoping it will all go away.”
Prince’s hip problems were first reported in 2005, and in 2007 and 2008 rumours emerged of “secret surgery”. But there is no sign that the singer has gone under the knife.
Bloggers have pointed to two recent appearances – at a Tony awards party and a bash for the 75th anniversary of the Apollo Theatre – where Prince came with a diamond-studded cane. The 51-year-old needed the stick “to keep him upright”, Showbiz 411 reported.
It should be noted, however, that Prince has been toting canes since at least the early 1990s.

Here is what one eyewitness reported on June 6, 2009:
After reading this now I know I saw Prince last Saturday (June 6) at La Guardia airport in NY. He was dressed all in black with a black hat and limping, I think on his right leg. He was walking with a cane, but he was moving quickly. I’ve tried to find something online about him having an injury to see if that really was him and now I know it was. I also read that Sunday was his birthday; hope he had a good one!
