“President Carter is resting comfortably, and his wife, Rosalynn, is with him,” The Carter Center statement said.
In October, Carter turned 95, becoming the first U.S. president to reach that milestone.
Later that month, the former president fractured his pelvis when he fell at his home, the Carter Center said at the time. The fracture was called minor.
He had fallen earlier in the month and received stitches above his brow. He was reported to be feeling fine after that Oct. 6 incident at his home.
Carter, the 39th president, said in August 2015 that he had been diagnosed with cancer and would undergo treatment for several melanoma spots on his brain and liver. He had previously had a mass removed from his liver that was melanoma.
He said months later that an MRI scan showed his cancer was gone.
