You seem an insensitive person in my view.
The late Pope John Paul was in full control of His mental faculties. He chose to be humble and allow others to witness His suffering.
Her Majesty The Queen, given any lengthy incapacity will NOT abdicate - She is Queen until She dies. The next in line to the Throne may be appointed REGENT meanwhile.

No, She doesn't have to abdicate. Apart from anything else, how could anyone be sure she really wanted to make that decision. I don't know about Pope John Paul, if he had that illness or not, I do think that that is a disrespectful thing to say. I'm not a Roman Catholic, but I don't think that's a good thing to say about anyone. If you really feel the need to be unkind about anyone, at least use spell check to be sure that you are nasty with correct spelling!

If she is incapacitated, a regency would be created for Prince Charles like it was for the Prince Regent (later George IV) when his father went mad. He would not inherit until the Queen died, there is no history of abdicating in favour of children in this country (unlike many other monarchies)

Didn't Pope John Paul have Parkinson's Disease?
That has nothing to do with Alzheimer's or cognitive reasoning.

If it's bad enough she might not remember that she can!
