President Carter Says His Cancer Is ‘in God’s Hands’

America’s 39th president, Jimmy Carter, has “four small spots” of cancer on his brain. He will begin radiation immediately. The former president says he is “at ease with whatever comes.” Earlier this year, doctors found cancer on Carter’s liver, and a subsequent operation could fully remove it. “I’m ready for anything and looking forward to a new adventure,” said Carter at a news conference. His pain is only “very slight,” and Carter said he hasn’t felt any weakness or debility.
