    Over a year in hospice care… man is amazing.

    “While it’s impossible to predict exactly how long someone will stay in hospice care, the average stay tends to be around 70 days.”

      Although, dying for a year also sounds pretty miserable. I hope he’s comfortable.

          He won life. He’s just enjoying the victory lap.

          I doubt he’s as chill as he might seem outwardly (he’s a politician, so he knows how to look dignified in virtually any situation). He was married to Rosalynn were married for 77 years. I can’t imagine what he must still be going through after that sort of loss.

            I’ve been married for 11 years, and I can’t even imagine the loss he feels. I choose to imagine he’s living his best single life, and trying to drown in hospice pussy. That way I don’t think about it and get sad.

    After the longest drought in recent memory, some over at deathlist.net see Jimmy Carter as the key log to unleash a torrent of deaths in the latter half of 2024…
