Hey there, folks. Let me fill you in on some concerning news. Former President Jimmy Carter was rushed to the hospital recently after a fall at his home in Plains, Georgia, resulting in a fractured pelvis. Deanna Congileo, a representative from the Carter Center, broke the news in a statement shared on the organization’s official Twitter account.
Here's what the statement said on Tuesday, October 22: “Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter had a fall yesterday evening at his home in Plains, Georgia. He has been admitted to Phoebe Sumter Medical Center for observation and treatment of a minor pelvic fracture. He is in good spirits and is looking forward to recovering at home.” That’s right, folks, even at the age of 95, Jimmy is keeping his chin up.
A Look Back at Jimmy Carter's Previous Falls
This isn't the first time Jimmy has taken a tumble in 2019. Earlier this spring, he experienced a nasty fall that necessitated hip replacement surgery. Then, in early October, he fell again and required 14 stitches just a day before heading to Nashville to work with Habitat for Humanity. Now that's dedication, right there.

Here's what Jimmy had to say about that incident, according to CNN: “I fell down and hit my forehead on a sharp edge and had to go to the hospital. And they took 14 stitches in my forehead and my eye is black, as you’ve noticed.” But despite his injuries, he was determined to keep his promise to the people of Nashville. “But I had a No. 1 priority, and that was to come to Nashville and build houses,” he added.
Jimmy Carter's Commitment to Service
Jimmy Carter's dedication to helping those in need is truly remarkable. He doesn't let anything stand in his way—not even multiple falls this year. Alongside his wife, Rosalynn Carter, he founded the Carter Center, an organization dedicated to resolving conflicts worldwide and improving lives.
