Pastor: Jimmy Carter walking, in 'good spirits' after brain surgery

[CatWoman]

Jimmy Carter’s pastor said the former president is “in good spirits” just a day after undergoing brain surgery.

The Rev. Tony Lowden, pastor of Maranatha Baptist Church in Plains, was in Atlanta on Wednesday visiting Carter at Emory University Hospital.

“His spirits are good and he is up and walking,” Lowden said.

Carter was admitted to the hospital on Monday to deal with bleeding near his brain, caused by a series of falls over the past few weeks.

Carter was diagnosed with a subdural hematoma and was operated on early Tuesday morning to relieve pressure on his brain.

7. I hope that President Carter starts using a walker or wheelchair fulltime.

He has fallen three times this year, two of which resulted in serious injury.

however, if his doctor insists, that's another point

He deserves to. And the thing is, he’d spend that eternity serving others.

He’s just such a wonderful guy.
