On Oct. 21, he suffered a “minor pelvic fracture” from a fall at his home in Plains. Carter, who turned 95 earlier in the month, spent three days at Phoebe Sumter Medical Center in Americus before being released.

Carter also bumped his head in October and required 14 stitches. He made quick recoveries from both October accidents, even appearing at a Habitat for Humanity event, sporting a black eye and wearing an Atlanta Braves hat on the same night he hit his head.

First president I met, and interviewed, in Kentucky in 1977. Tough as nails and decent as the day is long. I covered his first State of the Union in Jan. 1978. America felt like one family for a year or two, believe it or not. Get well soon, Mr. President. https://t.co/7kHK8dhcNE

On Nov. 3, he taught Sunday School at Maranatha Baptist Church in Plains.
“We are praying for him, and we believe he is going to be OK,” the Rev. Tony Lowden, Carter’s pastor at Maranatha Baptist, said Monday night. “He is one of the greatest persons I have ever known.”
Strengthen your servant Jimmy Carter, O God, to do what he has to do and bear what he has to bear; that, accepting your healing gifts through the skill of surgeons and nurses, he may be restored to usefulness in your world with a thankful heart. https://t.co/90QEWtRRgN

My thoughts and hopes for healing and recovery are with President Jimmy Carter today. One of my role models in life. His integrity, civility and generosity defines the true nature of leadership. We so need his gentle, respectful humanity in the world right now.

He has been hospitalized for a procedure to be performed on Tuesday morning to relieve pressure on his brain due to his recent falls.
In 2015, Carter beat cancer. Doctors had found four small melanoma lesions on his brain. The discovery followed the removal of a lesion on his liver that took about 10% of the organ.
Former President Jimmy Carter was the first president I was able to vote for upon turning 18 and I was proud to do it. I am praying that God will guide the hands and minds of the medical staff as they treat a true soldier of the Lord.🙏

We need to wrap Jimmy Carter in bubble wrap. He needs to see the next DEMOCRATIC President sworn in in 2021.
