Gary Carter did not intend to get an MRI three weeks ago, his daughter, Kimmy Bloemers, wrote on a private family website on Thursday night. But according to Bloemers, Carter's doctor noticed that Carter "was showing signs of some confusion and exhaustion" during his examination, which was for something entirely unrelated, and suggested that he undergo an MRI. As it turns out, that decision likely saved Carter's life. The MRI revealed that Carter had four small tumors in his brain on May 21, and it turned out that the 57-year-old had inoperable Stage 4 glioblastoma.
