EDMUND901 34 Posted August 28 When Carter announced his cancer diagnosis in 2015 I like many others rushed down to attend his Sunday school class not being sure how much more time there might be. Now nearly a decade later he is nearing his 100th birthday. Never count Jimmy out. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uni 10 Posted August 31 I remember the old gag, "what's the secret of living to 100? Get to 99 and then be very careful..." JImmy is more than 99.9% of the way there now, and I will be *very* disappointed if he is not careful in this last month 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He would literally be doing a Prince Phillip 2.0 if he died today or tomorrow. Yet again, if the death of his wife hasn't finish him off already, I doubt he's the type of man to suffer fatal stress from that looming birthday of his. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just thinking about the fact that Rosalynn's funeral was about as long ago from today as this picture of Prince Philip was taken before his death. He looked so incredibly ill compared to Phil and yet, he's still going. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems the man can make great conversation and he is by no means bed bound when he can sit outside and spend time at Roselyn's grave and sit and watch t.v and have comprehension . Who knows it is not for certain by no means, but it might be possible he sees 2025. We shall see 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lafaucheuse 4,013 Posted September 6 I think he’ll reach 100. Which is unbelievable in itself : if you’d have said to me in february 2023 he will reach that age, I would have tought you were John Sulu. Wouldn’t rule out him making it to 2025 too… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently one of the most waste of space sites ever created on the internet apparently.. So stupid this so called story's creator did not even put their name on it. My guess a 12 year old, or someone needing massive help. I understand this site is suppose to be just a mockery of news.

Had you told me at his wife's funeral the man would be sitting nearly a year later having conversation and eating cupcakes, I'd have dragged you off to the asylum myself...

That's still significantly better than we had assumed or been told previously.
