RadGuy 1,614 Posted May 14, 2017 As suggested by some folk on her husband's thread, she needs her own (and naw, last year's Barbara vs. Rosalynn thread doesn't count). The going on 92, frail-looking, many times hospitalized, stressed out by husband's health, soon-to-be-widow former First Lady is a good candidate for next year. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,309 Posted May 14, 2017 Can think of much better names than Barbara Bush or Rosalynn Carter. Mary Wilson Clarissa Eden seem better DL picks at the moment.Certainly worth having a thread.She has had a few minor health scares. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,127 Posted May 14, 2017 I think her husband's thread was perfectly adequate to accommodate them both. Easy enough to add her name to the heading. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Barbara Bush and Rosalynn Carter in 2017" so not only is it shared with a completely different person, it only pertains to 1 year. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilyForrester 81 Posted May 14, 2017 She's a great pick, I've got her on my list this year. She's had just as many (though less serious) scares as her husband, plus she's 91. Her and George have been in hospital twice already this year and missed the inauguration. As far as Rosalynn, I think her and Jimmy have a bit of life left in them (though she'll likely outlive Jimmy). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JeffreyTheSuperSnail 66 Posted May 15, 2017 I might be in the minority here, but I actually believe that Barbara will outlive Rosalynn. The most recent photo I found of Mrs. Carter was back in early 2016, but she didn't look very good in my opinion. : Rosalynn is the one on the far right. I don't mean to be rude, but she kind of looks like an alien in this photo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gooseberry Crumble 5,337 Posted May 15, 2017 I think it's a brilliant idea to finally give one of the oldest former First Ladies her own thread. Just as Clarissa Eden and Mary Wilson are worthy of their own threads and serious consideration for the 2018 Deathlist. Barbara could be very sturdy and resilient or she could follow her ailing husband to the grave within twelve month's of his passing. Definitely best to give her her own thread now before that possibility transpires. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rosalynn Carter has had no hospital visits, or at least ones worthy of us knowing her 89 years of life, Barbara has had nearly a dozen hospital visits since 2009. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something bad has definitely happened. She's deteriorating quickly with the scooter and now the nasal cannula.
