Former President Jimmy Carter has now been in hospice care for one year.
The 39th president, who turned 99 in October, entered hospice care on Feb. 18, 2023.
The Carter Center said America’s longest-living president would spend his “remaining time” at his Georgia home in hospice care instead of continuing cancer treatments.
“After a series of short hospital stays, former US President Jimmy Carter today decided to spend his remaining time at home with his family and receive hospice care instead of additional medical intervention,” the center said at the time. “He has the full support of his family and his medical team. The Carter family asks for privacy during this time and is grateful for the concern shown by his many admirers.
