Former President George H.W. Bush, (click here) who just buried his wife first lady Barbara Bush on Saturday, is in intensive care, CNN has learned.
"President Bush was admitted to the Houston Methodist Hospital yesterday morning after contracting an infection that spread to his blood. He is responding to treatments and appears to be recovering. We will issue additional updates as events warrant," spokesman Jim McGrath said in a statement....
It has happened in my own family, where an elderly couple died within days of each other when there was no other reason except a broken heart. We saw it with Carrie Fischer and Debbie Reynolds.
When people are that close and suffer the loss of 'the other' it takes a toll. I sincerely hope the Former President Bush will be okay. It is too hard on him. Her loss to him carries far deeper meaning than most can understand. I wish the family peace and hope.
