This week, we commemorate a significant milestone – it has been one year since former President Jimmy Carter began his journey in hospice care. Despite the challenges he has faced, including the heartbreaking loss of his beloved wife Rosalynn and his own health struggles, Carter’s indomitable spirit continues to shine on.

Jason Carter, the former President’s grandson, recently provided an update on his condition, stating, “After a year in hospice, we have no expectations for his body on a daily basis. But we know that his spirit is as strong as ever.” The entire Carter family is deeply grateful for the immense support and love that Jimmy has received over the past year.

“One year after entering hospice care, President Carter remains at home surrounded by his family,” the family shared. “We are profoundly thankful for the countless expressions of love we have received and the ongoing respect for our privacy during this time.”

The family also recognizes the significance of Carter’s decision to enter hospice care, as it has sparked important conversations across the country. The topic of hospice care deserves attention and understanding.

In a remarkable turn of events, Carter finds himself among the six percent of people who have lived beyond a year after entering hospice care. However, the passing of his wife Rosalynn has deeply affected him. His doctor, Dr. Michael Raines, expressed concern for Carter’s well-being after such a tremendous loss, acknowledging the profound impact of losing a long-term partner and friend.
