    Sounds like a subdural hematoma.

    Hope he does well.

    He has been a shining example of humanitarian assistance since leaving office.

    I am hearing he is not expected to make it. I hope I heard wrong.

    I disagreed with Carter’s policies, but the guy went on to literally get his hands dirty to help the people he advocated for. He has a good heart but politics wasn’t his forte.

    Christian? No, Obama is Islamic, his lips say he’s a Christian, his actions say he’s a warrior for Allah.

    Obama like most ex presidents is doing his own thing since leaving office,but Jimmy and Rosalind on the other hand have continued to serve the country and it's people throughout their entire lives.And they both have had long lives.

    The Carters have continued to live in the same modest house they had before he became president which he built most of himself.

    Clearly it was. I mean he pretty much won every election he was in. State Senator, Governor, and President.

    He costs tax payers less than half of what other ex presidents take each year since he left office.

    Hard to say. If he's checking in now, weeks after his falls it suggests a venous bleed. Also at his age his brain mass has likely decreased significantly-meaning more time before symptoms manifest.

    At his age, any surgery is major surgery.

    Carter may not have been the best President, but he is an honorable human being. When Congress said that he had to divest himself of business interests to avoid conflicts of interests, he did it. Wish Trump would have taken a clue from that - but he isn't honorable.

    Yes but he fell a couple weeks before that and broke a hip I think. At his age 95 or so that kicks ass.

    True.but the risk increases with age. President Jimmy is not long for this world I am afraid. Jimmy Carter is a Navy Veteran so I wish him a good Veterans Day and recovery.

    You can repeat the fact that Trump is not honorable any time you want.

    I hope that we can keep our focus on Mr. Carter and his current health challenge.

    I'd really appreciate your cooperation..
