Meg Ryan took a break from acting to spend time with her children: This is her today

The journey of Meg Ryan, who first drew breath in Fairfield, Connecticut in 1961, weaves a tale of resilience amidst the tumult of a fractured family. In the wake of her parents’ divorce, she encountered the harsh realities of life at a tender age. Yet, her innate charisma proved to be her guiding star, propelling her towards the celestial realms of Hollywood with iconic performances in classics like “Sleepless in Seattle” and “You’ve Got Mail”, thus enshrining her as the quintessential “America’s sweetheart”.

Amidst the dizzying heights of stardom, Ryan embarked on a hiatus from the silver screen, opting to nurture her familial bonds, a decision influenced in part by her widely publicized liaison and subsequent estrangement with the enigmatic Russell Crowe. Preferring to shield herself from the relentless glare of the spotlight, she reflected: “It was akin to a sudden bolt of lightning… We’ll weather this storm together”, alluding to the profound connection she shared with Dennis Quaid. Their union, however, proved ephemeral, culminating in a divorce a decade later, with Quaid’s infidelity being cited as a contributing factor.

Ryan’s foray into acting commenced amidst her pursuit of journalism, initially marked by commercial gigs before ascending to the stratosphere with her breakout role in “Top Gun”. Fate intertwined her path with Dennis Quaid’s on the set of “Innerspace”, leading to a matrimonial bond that bore fruit in the form of a son, Jack, who has since ventured into the cinematic realm, leaving his mark in productions such as “The Hunger Games”.

In 2006, Ryan expanded the canvas of her family portrait by embracing motherhood once more, this time through the adoption of a 14-month-old Chinese girl christened Daisy. The profound love and connection she experienced mirrored the depths of her affection for her biological offspring, Jack.

While Ryan has retreated from the public gaze in recent times, murmurs abound of her impending return to the limelight of Hollywood. At the age of 60, she continues to exude an ethereal aura of youthfulness and allure, eliciting eager anticipation from her legion of admirers who yearn to witness her luminous presence grace the silver screen once more.

Jimmy Carter’s eldest grandchild shares health update as former president nears 16 months in hospice

It’s been 479 days since Jimmy Carter entered hospice care at his home in Plains, Georgia.

Although the former president’s family initially believed he would only live a few days, Carter, at 99 years old, has defied the odds.

“God had other plans,” Jason Carter, 48, said.

Jason, the oldest of the Jimmy and Rosalynn’s 22 grandchildren, recently shared an update with Southern Living on the health of the 39th president.

According to the oldest grandchild, there’s “really been no change” in the last few months.

WASHINGTON – OCTOBER 04: Former US President Jimmy Carter listens during the kick-off of an all-week construction project to mark the World Habitat Day and the annual Habitat for Humanity Carter Work Project October 4, 2010 in the Ivy City neighborhood of Washington, DC. Carter was recently released from an Ohio hospital after being treated for a viral infection. Under the project a total of 86 homes will be built, rehabilitated or repaired in Washington, DC; Baltimore and Annapolis, Maryland; Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota; and Birmingham, Alabama.

After nearly 16 months under hospice care, the last seven without his wife of 77 years, Carter is “experiencing the world as best he can as he continues through this process.”

“After 77 years of marriage… I just think none of us really understand what it’s like for him right now,” Jason said.. “We have to embrace that fact, that there’s things about the spirit that you just can’t understand.”

While family continue to visit the former president at his home in Plains, they find it difficult to predict what kind of day Carter will have.

More often than not, Carter spends his days sleeping.

However, a few weeks ago Jason visited his grandfather and the two watched an Atlanta Braves game and talked about the Carter Center and their family.

“I told him, I said: ‘Pawpaw, you know, when people ask me how you’re doing I say, ‘honestly I don’t know,’” Jason remembered. “And he kind of smiled and he said ‘I don’t know, myself.’”

Jimmy Carter is in my prayers every single day. Please share to keep him and his family in yours.
