Former President Jimmy Carter Facing Health Challenges

A Challenging Battle

Former President Jimmy Carter, once a robust figure, is now facing a challenging battle for his health. After 16 months in hospice care, his condition remains dire.

The Oldest Living President

Carter, now 99, became the oldest living president in history after George H.W. Bush died in 2018 at the age of 94. He has endured a series of health issues, including metastatic brain cancer, liver cancer, and other recent illnesses.

Carter is mourning the loss of his longtime love, Rosalynn Carter, who passed away earlier this year. He is currently in hospice care, where he is receiving around-the-clock medical attention.

Late last week, Carter marked another year as the longest-lived former commander-in-chief. He has survived numerous health challenges, including cancer and other illnesses. His family has asked for privacy during this difficult time.
