According to new reports, former President Jimmy Carter has entered hospice care. According to a statement provided by The Carter Center, the 39th president’s choice to enter hospice comes after many hospital hospitalizations.
“Following a series of short hospital stints, former US President Jimmy Carter elected to spend his remaining time at home with his family and receive hospice care instead of extra medical intervention. His family and medical staff are completely behind him.”
At 98 years old, Carter is the oldest living president. He’s held that record since 2018, when George H.W. Bush died at the age of 94, according to CNN.
Carter has had several health problems in recent years. The former president defeated brain cancer in 2015, and in 2019, he underwent brain surgery to relieve the growing strain.
Jimmy is a retired peanut farmer, US Navy Lieutenant, Sunday School teacher, and former US president. He is also a Habitat for Humanity volunteer and a 2002 Nobel Peace Prize winner.
Carter and his wife, Rosalynn Carter, live in Plains, Georgia. Amy, Donnel, Jack, and James are their four children.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Jimmy and his family as they support him through this difficult time.
Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter honored with first-ever CNN Heroes Legacy Award
CNN announced its “Heroes of the Year” awards on Sunday night and for the first time ever, CNN also awarded a “Heroes Legacy Award.”
The inaugural winner? It’s former President Jimmy Carter and his late wife first lady Rosalynn Carter. CNN recognized Georgia’s favorite couple for their lifetime commitment to community service.
Rosalynn Carter died in November at the age of 96. Jimmy Carter has been in hospice care since February. The Carters’ granddaughter Sarah Carter accepted the award on her grandparents’ behalf.
“My grandparents had the ability to envision the world as it should be with astonishing moral clarity and the audacity and determination to pursue that vision over decades. And they touched so many people’s lives along the way,” Sarah Carter said.
The Carter family has committed their lives to several notable causes.
Jimmy Carter has worked in partnership with Habitat for Humanity since the mid-1980s. He earlier volunteered with the organization in Americus, Georgia where it was founded.
Rosalynn Carter made it her life mission to advocate for mental health. She played a key role in the passage of a federal law requiring insurance to pay for mental health treatment on par with physical illnesses.
President and Mrs. Carter were the longest-ever married presidential couple, having wed in 1946.

WATCH : This Unusual Dance Routine by Two Girls Had the Entire Crowd On Their Feet from the Moment They Turned Around!
You would be incorrect to initially underestimate this dance routine’s mesmerizing power.
Irish dances like clogging, which are usually rather stunning, are characterized by their complex footwork and little upper body movement.
The routine shown in this video, however, gives the conventional approach a novel and thrilling twist.
This exciting clogging duet, performed by Madison and Morgan, was the highlight of the 2013 Clogging Champions of America – Showdown of Champions in Knoxville, Tennessee. Set to the lively track “Hit the Ground Runnin’” by Keith Urban, their performance departs from the traditional Irish music typically connected with clogging.
Madison and Morgan, dressed in white pants, clog shoes, and plaid shirts, break stereotypes from the very beginning.
The crowd roars with excitement as the two take the stage with their backs to the spectators, creating a thrilling atmosphere for their performance.
When the music starts, you can feel the excitement rising as Madison and Morgan whirl around quickly, beaming with joy. The pair is launched into motion by their coordinated footwork, hand-holding, and elegant spins.
The girls combine classic clogging techniques with contemporary flair throughout the routine, including stage circles, high kicks, and even an amazing high jump. Every motion in their dance is precisely timed, and it is flawlessly performed.
Madison and Morgan give the traditional dance style a modern twist by including upper body arm and hand moves that give the routine a lively, fun feel. A riveting performance that captivates audiences is created by fusing classic and modern components.
Viewers were astounded by the smooth transitions and deft footwork, and many expressed their amazement in the comments area. Some lauded clogging’s exuberance, while others got into a heated argument on how to categorize it.
Despite dissenting views, one commenter highlighted the rich cultural history of clogging and how it developed into a contemporary Irish-American dance form. Another confirmed the routine’s legitimacy by recognizing the classic steps mixed with modern components and drawing from their own expertise teaching clogging.
