Former President Jimmy Carter’s Condition

It has been a year since former President Jimmy Carter entered hospice care, and his family recently provided an update on his condition. This update was shared by his grandson Jason Carter on CBS Sunday Morning.

Despite facing end-of-life care for the past 12 months, President Carter defied all odds by attending his beloved wife’s funeral, leaving many in tears. During the service, he was draped in a black and white blanket that symbolized their enduring love and marriage. The blanket featured a portrait of Rosalynn and Jimmy with the text “The Carters” and “Est. 1885” embroidered on it, paying tribute to their hometown of Plains, Georgia, where they first met as children.

President Carter, at 98 years old, holds the esteemed title of the oldest living president. He has confronted various health issues over the years, including a victorious battle against brain cancer in 2015 and a brain surgery in 2019 to relieve pressure. Through it all, Carter’s spirit remains unwaveringly strong and resilient.

A Choice for Family
According to a statement from The Carter Center, President Carter has made the decision to spend his remaining time surrounded by his family and receiving hospice care, choosing not to pursue additional medical interventions. This decision is supported wholeheartedly by his family and medical team.

Jimmy Carter’s life journey encompasses more than just his time as a president. From being a dedicated volunteer for Habitat for Humanity to his past as a peanut farmer, US Navy Lieutenant, and Sunday School teacher, President Carter has always lived a life of service. In 2002, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Currently residing in Plains, Georgia, with his wife Rosalynn, President Carter is also a proud father of four children.

Appreciation for Support
The Carter family is immensely grateful for the love and support they have received and would like express their gratitude for the privacy they have been given during this challenging time. They are heartened by the fact that President Carter’s decision to enter hospice care has sparked important conversations across the country.

Let us continue to keep Jimmy Carter and his family in our thoughts and prayers as they stand together during this particularly difficult period.
