Former President Jimmy Carter was released from the hospital on Wednesday after being treated for a urinary tract infection, according to his spokeswoman.
“He said he looks forward to further rest and recovery at home in Plains, Georgia. He and Mrs. Carter wish everyone peace and joy this holiday season,” the statement read.
On Dec. 2, the same spokeswoman said he was taken to the hospital and “is feeling better.” It came just days after he was in the hospital after surgery to remove pressure on his brain after a fall.
He was released on Nov. 27 and was hospitalized since Nov. 11.
On Oct. 6, he hit his head and got 14 stitches but traveled to Nashville to build a Habitat for Humanity home. Later in the month, he fractured his pelvis during a fall and was hospitalized again.
“We just need the whole country to be in prayer for him,” Lowden said.
Last spring, he fell and was forced to get hip replacement surgery.
And in 2015, he was diagnosed with melanoma and revealed to media outlets that the cancer spread to other parts of his body.
Carter was born in Plains, Georgia, in 1924, and he and his wife, Rosalyn, have been married for more than 73 years.
“I’ve had an exciting and adventurous and gratifying existence,” Carter told The Washington Post earlier in the year.
Former President George H.W. Bush died about a year ago at the age of 94.
