George H.W. Bush hospitalized in Maine

Quote
Former president George H.W. Bush was hospitalized in Maine on Sunday, according to his spokesman Jim McGrath.

The former chief executive was taken to Southern Maine Health Care after experiencing low blood pressure and fatigue, McGrath tweeted just after 2 p.m. ET. Bush will likely remain in the hospital for a few days for observation. McGrath tweeted that Bush, the nation's 41st president, was "awake and alert, and not in any discomfort."

"...after experiencing low blood pressure and fatigue..."

I'm no doctor and I'm sure these could be symptoms of something serious but at the same time, those symptoms are not always alarming. Many people suffer from fatigue and low blood pressure.

Several of us here posted similar comments after Barbara’s death: He won’t be much longer.

This is not meant in disrespect of him, but of recognition of his bond with her.

Prayers for GHW Bush.

I'm glad he's in Maine.  It is so beautiful in Kennebunkport (Maine is our favorite vacation spot, and Walker Point is lovely), and I would guess at least some of his family is with him.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

Exactly.  When a couple has been married as long as they were, it's like a part of oneself is gone when the other one dies.  No one else can take her place.
