The Democrat has lived longer after leaving office than any former president in US history.
Workers set up a display on the north lawn of the White House in honour of former president Jimmy Carter’s 99th birthday.
Carter, a Democrat who served as US president from January 1977 to January 1981, is in hospice care after deciding in February to decline additional medical intervention. He turns 99 on Sunday. Back in Washington, a three-tiered wooden cake display, decorated in the red, white and blue colours of the American flag and featuring 39 candles in recognition of Carter’s being the country’s 39th president, festooned the White House lawn with a ‘Happy Birthday President Carter’ message.
Carter has faced health challenges in recent years, including melanoma that spread to his liver and brain, but he has continued to show resilience, even after his decision to start hospice care.
