The "interesting stuff" in it copypasted: . he’s now focused on President Jimmy Carter’s health. . “I’m sure he’ll try to work through this, but it’s such a big loss for him,” he said. . Raines said he fears Jimmy may not have the same drive to keep fighting during his time in hospice care. + (mentions the "dying of broken heart" possibility) On Rosalynn: . Raines was the one who made the call for Jimmy Carter to go into hospice care in February. On Friday, he made the same call for Rosalynn Carter but was not expecting her to pass away so soon even though she was diagnosed with dementia six months ago.

December and before Christmas, I think ! The last picture taken of the couple Carter in September showed Jimmy in awful condition, very frail and Rosalynn was in better condition at these time...No December will be his last month !

Joltin Joe 149 Posted November 23, 2023 Rosalynn's final moments "Jimmy Carter remains mentally aware and at times remarkably sharp, but he is physically weak, according to family and friends. He hopes to attend his wife’s funeral in Plains next Wednesday and a tribute earlier next week at the Carter Center in Atlanta, according to his family." 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The article also mentions him having trouble speaking and almost none of his clothing fitting... The man is in way worse shape than media reports let us believe previously. At least for surviving over 9 months after he was expected to die. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We all told him how proud we were of his relationship with her and of how he looked after her.” Yeah I can’t see him lasting until 2024. Also, the article says the reason she was put into hospice care was because she had a urinary tract infection that she was too weak to fight off, even with antibiotics. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It always surprise me how deadly are urinary track infection at that age. Didn’t John Paul II died of it too ? And what was the goal of putting her in hospice care and releasing an official statement if they knew that her days were numbered ? anyway, I’m gonna go against everyone’s guts and say that he will reach 2024. He still seems mentally sharp and that plays a lot in his favor. I do see him dying soon after new year’s Eve (or maybe on new year’s Eve as Benedict and White ?) 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And what was the goal of putting her in hospice care and releasing an official statement if they knew that her days were numbered ? From what I've seen in reports, they didn't expect her to die so quickly. Makes sense given how long her husband has lasted. As for why they made the statement in the first place, it could be because Jimmy asked them to (as she couldn't most likely). Or given his speaking difficulties it could have been a pre-arranged thing. Personally, as I noted above, that article has given significant extra details about Jimmy's concerns that make me almost certain he's not going to make 2024 if they're concerned about him not being able to even make it to the funeral physically. If he makes it that will give us more of a clue as to his condition, as there will probably be photos. Going to be very interesting to see if Melania shows up. (Side note- she's likely to be the last living of all the current first ladies, as she's a good 6 years younger than Michelle and significantly younger than either Laura Bush or HRC.) I think she will. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't exactly think Melania is following her husband's diet, so I'm not sure there's picture of a health consciousness difference. Although he seems to have slimmed down significantly as of late.

Although he seems to have slimmed down significantly as of late. I think thats the stress of all the indictments & as much as i never liked old Trump, he definitely doesn't seem anywhere near as sharp as during his Presidency. I reckon his health has definitely deteriorated a bit recently. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InquilineKea 75 Posted November 24, 2023 People can be frail/near-death for *many months*, like Billy Graham... And Billy Graham had way more progressive illnesses than Jimmy. Jimmy isn't bedridden yet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably has a little energy left in him then There has likely never been a bigger motivator in his life. He isn't bedridden or in a coma true, but I think you are reading too much into this. If anything, going might be the final nail in his coffin. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
