Jimmy Carter To Teach Sunday School Days After Breaking Hip.

Former President Jimmy Carter plans to teach Sunday school this weekend just days after undergoing surgery for a broken hip, a spokeswoman said Thursday.

Carter, 94, was released Thursday morning from a Georgia hospital after getting a hip replacement. He plans to continue recuperating at his home in rural Plains, said a statement from Carter spokeswoman Deanna Congileo.

Carter’s wife, Rosalynn Carter, went home with her husband after she was admitted to the hospital Wednesday for observation and testing after she “felt faint,” Congileo said.

“Both President and Mrs. Carter extend their thanks to the many people who sent well wishes the past few days,” Congileo’s statement said.

I actually had thought about this and I'd have been willing to bet on it. After all, when he was released from the hospital after he had heat stroke, he went right back to building houses. Kudos to President Carter and wishing him many more productive days ahead!
