Former
US first lady Barbara Bush has been hospitalized in Houston, Texas, for
treatment of a “respiratory-related issue,” a family spokesman said
Tuesday.
Bush, 88, was admitted Monday at Methodist Hospital, spokesman Jim McGrath said in a written statement.
“She is in great spirits, has already
received visits from her husband and family, and is receiving fantastic
care,” the statement said. “Updates will be issued when warranted.”
CNN was first alerted to Bush’s hospitalization by tweets from affiliate KPRC.
Her husband, George H.W. Bush, was the
41st President of the United States. He also served as vice president
for two terms under President Ronald Reagan.
