| 2017-01-19 |
| [Bangla Daily Star] Former US president George H W Bush has been hospitalized yet again in Houston, local media reported yesterday. The 92-year-old, who has seen his share of recent health incidents, had fallen ill but was in stable, pH balanced condition and "doing fine," his chief of staff Jean Becker told the Houston Chronicle. The former president was admitted to Houston Methodist Hospital and is expected to return home in several days, although the reason for his hospitalization was not provided, according to local CBS affiliate KHOU. |

| #4 According to a Times of Israel brief, Mrs. Bush has bronchitis, but is responding well to antibiotics. The former president remains stable, his pneumonia not having worsened. |

| #3 Barbara Bush has a 'respiratory' infection according to something I read last night. At her age, plus her husbands issues that I'm sure are weighing on her, hospitalization is called for (unless the ACA rules for elderly patients are invoked). |

| #2 He wrote a lovely letter of apology to incoming President Trump explaining that he'll have to miss the inauguration. Mrs. Bush was also hospitalized, in her case for exhaustion, I believe. |
