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.

A Little Boy Who Sounds Like Johnny Cash Is Met With Standing Ovations by the Audience…
Through his endearing interpretation of Folsom Prison Blues, a little boy who goes by the name “Little John” is responsible for ensuring that Johnny Cash’s music continues to be played. The fact that his voice is remarkably close to that of the great performer was shown by his rendition of the song in the year 2008.
A great number of individuals claim that they possess a voice that is reminiscent of a certain star; but, for a little child who goes by the name Little John, this is in fact the case. The crowd was struck dumbfounded by Little John’s incredible singing abilities during one of his performances.
Little John is now in the second grade. Due to the fact that the little child displays an endearing quality, the audience was already captivated by him before he even started singing the song themselves.
The sight of him playing the guitar, which seemed to be too large for his little hands, and his lovely little button-down blue shirt made him an adorable sight. Despite the fact that he had selected a challenging song to play, he was certain that he would be able to do it with elegance and talent. Despite the fact that Little John was going to put on an incredible display, nobody was prepared for it.
Before commencing to sing, he introduced himself as well as the songs that he was going to cover in the next performance. When the little kid declared that he was going to perform some Johnny Cash songs, everyone was taken aback. However, as he began singing, it became abundantly evident that these songs were destined to be sung by the voice of this young child.
During his singing, the little child seemed to be singing in a manner that was both natural and elegant, and the crowd was awestruck by his musical prowess. His voice could be heard emanating from every corner of the room, and it was obvious that he had been training for years, despite the fact that his skill level was far higher than his age.
His voice had an uncanny similarity to that of Johnny Cash himself, and his tone was kind and reassuring. But just when the audience was beginning to assume that that was all he had to give, Little John pulled out an even more impressive trick that he had been keeping up his sleeve. Halfway through one of his songs, he made the decision to vary things up a little and make the crowd go even crazy for his incredible ability.
Despite the fact that many were amazed that someone of such a young age could have such a presence on stage and such a remarkable singing skill, Little John was there.
