Former President Jimmy Carter is recovering in the hospital following surgery to relieve pressure on his brain, caused by bleeding due to his recent falls.
The procedure was done to relieve pressure on his brain from a subdural hematoma, a serious condition -- usually caused by a head injury -- where blood collects between the skull and the surface of the brain.Cater, 95, was admitted to the hospital on Monday evening ahead of the procedure. A family spokesperson had said he was"resting comfortably, and his wife, Rosalynn, is with him."
Carter had to get stitches above his brow after falling at his ranch house in rural Plains, Georgia, on Oct. 6. And in May, he underwent surgery after falling and breaking his hip while he was leaving to go turkey hunting. "I assumed naturally that I was going to die very quickly," said Carter, referring to his cancer diagnosis in 2015."I said a prayer about it; I didn't ask God to let me live, I found that I was absolutely and completely at ease with death."
Wishing him quick recovery in Jesus' name. Amen!!
