Former first lady Rosalynn Carter, an advocate for mental health care, has been diagnosed with dementia, her family announced in a statement issued by The Carter Center on May 30.
The former first lady, 95, remains at home with former President Jimmy Carter, 98, who has received hospice care since early this year. Mrs. Carter, the oldest living first lady, was said to be “enjoying spring ... and visits with loved ones” despite her diagnosis.
