Praying for President Bush and his family.

He has lost his closest friend and dearest love.   I don't know that he can live long with his grief.

Only a matter of days now.  What more is there to live for.  Go in peace Mr. Pres.

I think he will be going home pretty soon.

They were together for, what, almost three-quarters of a century?  I don't want to be morbid and I hope I'm wrong, but I don't expect him to be here for long.

Sepsis is infection in the blood; most die as infection is sent to every body part through the blood. It is usually deadly.

He had to have been sick during the funeral, poor man.

That's what I heard too, he's getting better on the hourly news.

In perfect honesty, I would be surprised if he's still here by summer. I felt ripped in half when my husband passed, and we were only in our early 20s. I would imagine that in a marriage that has lasted 73 years, it would be even more difficult to endure the passing of a beloved spouse. He looks so frail.  :0001:

I don't want to speculate on how much time President Bush has left.  Seems rather morbid to me. 

It is going to be tough on him to be without her.  That's for sure.  But his family is close knit.  I'd like to think they would help him through. 

Prayers for him and his family.
