Jimmy Carter is recovering after surgery on Tuesday morning to relieve pressure on his brain.
The Carter Center said the surgery was to “relieve pressure on his brain, caused by bleeding due to his recent falls.“
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution writes:
On Oct. 21, he suffered a “minor pelvic fracture” from a fall at his home in Plains. Carter, who turned 95 earlier in the month, spent three days at Phoebe Sumter Medical Center in Americus before being released.
That was his second accident in two weeks and third major accident since May, when he fell and broke his hip.
Carter also bumped his head in October and required 14 stitches.
After each injury, he has quickly returned to work, whether it’s building homes for Habitat for Humanity or teaching Sunday school.
