It’s been 479 days since Jimmy Carter entered hospice care at his home in Plains, Georgia.
Although the former president’s family initially believed he would only live a few days, Carter, at 99 years old, has defied the odds.
“God had other plans,” Jason Carter, 48, said.
Jason, the oldest of the Jimmy and Rosalynn’s 22 grandchildren, recently shared an update with Southern Living on the health of the 39th president.
According to the oldest grandchild, there’s “really been no change” in the last few months.
After nearly 16 months under hospice care, the last seven without his wife of 77 years, Carter is “experiencing the world as best he can as he continues through this process.”
“After 77 years of marriage… I just think none of us really understand what it’s like for him right now,” Jason said.. “We have to embrace that fact, that there’s things about the spirit that you just can’t understand.”
While family continue to visit the former president at his home in Plains, they find it difficult to predict what kind of day Carter will have.
More often than not, Carter spends his days sleeping.
However, a few weeks ago Jason visited his grandfather and the two watched an Atlanta Braves game and talked about the Carter Center and their family.
“I told him, I said: ‘Pawpaw, you know, when people ask me how you’re doing I say, ‘honestly I don’t know,’” Jason remembered. “And he kind of smiled and he said ‘I don’t know, myself.’”
Jimmy Carter is in my prayers every single day. Please share to keep him and his family in yours.
Everyone was wondering what happened to Carrie Underwood’s husband
Carrie Underwood, together with her husband Mike Fisher, are a common couple on the red carpet. They have walked together at some of the world’s most prestigious award ceremonies, including the Grammys, CMA Awards, and American Music Awards.
Usually, we can’t get over how cute this retired hockey player’s spouse is with her country music star husband.
The CMT Music Awards is one event where Fisher is always sure to be seen warmly supporting his wife. Seasons in which the former standout player for the Nashville Predators appeared with Underwood were 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018, and 2019.
Award shows experienced a slight alteration in operations after the epidemic, but Fisher reunited with his amazing wife in 2022.
But when the 2023 CMT Awards were held in Austin, Texas on April 2, Fisher was nowhere to be found. So what’s the deal?
Don’t think that Mike Fisher and Carrie Underwood are at odds with each other in paradise. He declined to go in person to support his wife, who was up for both Female Video of the Year and Video of the Year at the 2023 CMT Awards.
When asked where her husband was, the “Hate My Heart” singer said, “On the red carpet, he was really on dad duty for the evening.”
“My partner is in charge of the kids. He usually keeps things running while I work on tasks like these. She called out to her three boys, and even at home, she appeared to be keeping an eye on them. Oh no!
Notably, compared to prior years, the former hockey great most likely did not have as much access to the 2023 award presentation. The CMTs have recently taken place in Nashville, the birthplace of country music.
This incident took place near Franklin, Underwood, and Fisher’s suburban Nashville home. However, in November 2022, the award presentation was scheduled to relocate to Texas.
Underwood looked amazing in a rhinestone two-piece that would have placed her on any Best Dressed list, yet it appeared as though she was making the most of her time in Texas, away from her sons.
Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher, who are well-known, try to keep their two children, Jacob and Isaiah, out of the spotlight. In order to avoid disturbing their routine, Fisher and the singer of “Jesus Take the Wheel” decided not to bring the kids on tour with them last year.
Underwood stated, “They are not coming with me this time,” to ET Canada. “My oldest child’s education is our top priority, and she is enrolled in school. We want their lives to be as normal as possible.
Fisher is a hands-on parent, Underwood continued, which frees her up to concentrate on her work. I also think of myself as fortunate. She muttered, “I have to brag a little about my hubby. “He understands it. When I’m not here, he keeps it under lock and key. I never have to worry about lunches that aren’t packed or unclean laundry.
That makes sense, too, given Fisher’s desire to become a parent. Before Isaiah was born in 2015, he told The Tennessean how excited he was to become a father.
Regarding having children, he remarked, “Many say it’s impossible to explain until it happens, and then it’s the greatest thing ever.” “I’m just thinking about how I can be the best father I can be.”
It wasn’t always like this, even if Mike Fisher and Carrie Underwood appear to be the ideal pair right now. Underwood initially doubted Fisher’s ability to be a good mother, but Fisher has always desired to be a caring mother.
The country music icon stated, “I’ve never been fantastic with other people’s children. Why would I be terrific with one of my own?” in the documentary “Mike and Carrie: God & Country.” She added that at first, having a family wasn’t even at the top of her list of priorities.
“I don’t think I ever thought about getting married and starting a family,” the woman stated. “I can play well alone.” Fisher, on the other hand, was the total opposite.
I was reared with my three other siblings. My parents were also great. And I believe that’s all I was hoping for,” he remarked. “I wanted to be the best father I could be, to be like my father, and to have a wife like my mother.” and have children while living in the country.
All in all, though, everything worked out well because Underwood and Fisher, along with their two children, now live in the nation. After Isaiah was born, Underwood’s entire perspective on fatherhood had dramatically altered. It has changed the kind of person I am. Now I feel better. I’m in a better mood most of the time,” she stated in a Redbook Mag interview. “I’m totally smitten!”
