Former US President Jimmy Carter Moved to Hospice Care at 98
Former US President Jimmy Carter, the oldest living president in American history, has been moved to hospice care at the age of 98. After a series of health issues, including surviving cancer and suffering from broken bones, Carter has decided to spend his remaining time at home with family while receiving hospice care.
Carter's life has been dedicated to public service, co-founding the nonprofit organization, Carter Center, which focuses on global health and democracy-building initiatives. He is also known for his work with Habitat for Humanity, building homes for those in need.
Despite leaving the Oval Office with poor approval ratings, Carter's post-presidential career has been one of the most productive and impactful of any former US president. He has occasionally spoken out on political affairs, including calling for Georgia's now-Governor Brian Kemp to resign in 2018 and supporting Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
Carter and his wife, Rosalynn, are the longest-married couple in presidential history, and have been seen making a rare public appearance in their hometown of Plains, Georgia, just last year. The Carter family has asked for privacy during this time and is grateful for the concern shown by his many admirers.
As the world continues to send well-wishes and prayers to the beloved former president, his lifelong commitment to service and advocacy will undoubtedly continue to inspire generations to come.
