I've noticed that those who rave about health care systems in Cuba, Canada, and other places will come here or stay here when they need advanced care.

Former President Carter is recovering from brain surgery with “no complications,” according to a statement from The Carter Center released Tuesday.

Carter underwent brain surgery Tuesday morning to relieve pressure on his brain caused by bleeding after his recent falls.

“There are no complications from the surgery,” the statement read. “President Carter will remain in the hospital as long as advisable for observation.”

I am 18 months post brain bleed complication, and trust me yoou would not wish that on your worst enemy, unless you are a sique sadistic phuquer

My neurologist warned the brain was the body's slowest organ to heal. She was correct.

It's long past time for Jimmah to come clean and apologize for his racist past.
