Former President Jimmy Carter has reached a significant milestone, marking one year in hospice care since entering on February 18, 2023, as reported by the New York Post. Now 99 years old, Carter’s decision to enter hospice care was preceded by several short hospital stays. In a statement to USA Today, the Carter family expressed gratitude for the outpouring of love and support while emphasizing the importance of privacy during this time. The decision to forego further medical intervention in favor of hospice care was made in the context of Carter’s ongoing health challenges.
During his presidency, Jimmy Carter was known for his commitment to human rights and social justice, highlighted by achievements such as brokering the Camp David Accords. However, his administration faced significant challenges, including the Iran hostage crisis and a failed rescue attempt.
In addition to Jimmy Carter’s health journey, the family has also faced the loss of former First Lady Rosalynn Carter, who passed away at age 96 in November of the previous year. Rosalynn Carter, renowned for her post-White House advocacy work, including efforts in human rights and health issues, joined her husband in at-home hospice care after being diagnosed with dementia.
Despite the trials they’ve faced, the Carter family remains grateful for the support they’ve received and the ongoing discussions sparked by Jimmy Carter’s decision to enter hospice care.
