Still in hospice care?

Can Carter meaningfully be described as in still being in hospice care, seeing as it has now been over seven months and on his 99th birthday, he is "defying all odds again"? [1] Pawnkingthree (talk) 14:17, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hospice care is a kind of medical care. It means that the subject is no longer receiving treatment to extend his life in the face of his various medical conditions, and is instead only receiving care intended to keep him comfortable and avoid pain. There has been no reporting to the effect that Carter is receiving any care other than that, and there have been reports just in the past few weeks that Carter is very near the end. In the meantime, we just keep updating. BD2412 T 16:45, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
