It’s not a good sign when you baffle all of christendom by surviving childhood.

Ok so you all know that wiki is a thing...? Charles II of Spain was child of uncle and niece yea, he had a habsburg jaw which prevent him from rightly chew his food. And he was sickly but mostly due to rubella, smallpox, chickenpox, measles that he had as child. As child he had legbraces and couldnt walk withou help. But as he was older and king there are documents from diplomats and his teachers and other members of court that he was kind, affable, shy, talkative, educated and not so confident. He was physicaly active, goes on hunts. So based on all this and also that his older sister was perfectly fine mentaly and physicaly signs that he was struck with diseases as child and it worsen his health
