The ex-president has his loving wife, Rosalynn, by his bedside, while his team members also showed him support. His team members joked that the only thing the former president cared about was missing the last week of the turkey hunting season.

Jimmy had set a target for himself this hunting season and is gutted to not fulfill it due to his health and hopes the state of Georgia would allow him to roll over his unused limit to next year’s hunting season.

At 94, Jimmy Carter is still going strong and keeps fit with daily exercises. He spends his time hunting turkey and is also a humanitarian worker. The ex-president is known to partake in the efforts of Habitat for Humanity Construction, helping to build homes for the masses.

Jimmy Carter was born on the 1st of October, 1924. He was a bright lad while growing up, finishing in the top 10 percent of his class in Annapolis in 1946.

He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 for his efforts in finding peaceful solutions to World conflicts, the advancement of democracy and human rights as well as the promotion of economic and social development.
