Former President Jimmy Carter was released Wednesday morning from Atlanta’s Emory Hospital, where he spent just over two weeks recovering from a “successful” surgery to “relieve pressure on his brain caused by a subdural hematoma,” according to the Carter Center. “He and Mrs. Carter look forward to enjoying Thanksgiving at home in Plains, where he will continue to recover,” the center said in a statement. “The Carters are grateful for all the prayers, cards, and notes they have received and hope everyone will join them in enjoying a special Thanksgiving.” The 95-year-old has fallen several times over the last year, most recently fracturing his pelvis during an incident at home.
