Jimmy Carter And His Wife Pucker Up For Atlanta Braves Kiss Cam

The former president, a regular at Braves ballgames, is currently being treated for cancer.

Carter, 90, and his wife, Rosalynn, are longtime fans of the Braves, and the presidential couple, who have been married for 69 years, have been a regular presence at games.

It was the first time Carter has attended a game since he announced last month that he is being treated for cancer. He said Tuesday that he has already received several treatments for the melanoma, which has spread to his brain.

His wife also spoke this week at the Carter Center to thank the public for their support.

"In spite of what's going on, it's been wonderful to know we have that kind of support, and also Jimmy's attitude is helping," Rosalynn Carter said.
