I was referring to George W. Bush, his son. If his father is supposedly seriously ill, and his mother is also in hospital then will he risk travelling all the way to Washington D.C for the inauguration or will he stay with them in Houston in hospital - that will be a sign as to how serious the situation is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He could use this to justify his absence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WednesdayAddams 103 Posted January 18, 2017 BBC saying now he'd had a procedure - sounds like a tracheostomy to me. They also say he's expected home in a few days. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-38667118 How the hell any 92 year old is home a few days after such a radical medical intervention is beyond me! Reading the original statement issued by Bush Snr's own press secretary, it sounds like he is intubated rather than tracheotomised, in which case he will be in a medically induced coma I would think. So yes, not nothing even a strong 92 year old walks away from easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So yes, not nothing even a strong 92 year old walks away from easily. I agree. Also what sounds a bit ominous is the wording of the most recent statement at the end - 'We will update you as events warrant'. Usually if someone is ill but genuinely in a stable condition e.g HM The Queen after her cold, they usually just say she'll be recuperating and there will be no further statement. Sounds a bit more like they're preparing for the worst here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoffinLodger 1,248 Posted January 18, 2017 It's all kicking off- Bush condition has deteriorated and he's now in intensive care.Barbara Bush has also been rushed into hospital !http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/01/18/george-hw-bush-barbara-bush-jim-mcgrath-houston-methodist-hospital/96723788/ I think the reference to him being out of hospital in a few days was before todays deterioration.In hi s condition I doubt he'll be going anywhere that soon , other than the mortuary !! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weebl 216 Posted January 18, 2017 Heard about this on the radio - sounds like it could be the end for him. Nice timing! If he died on Friday, that'd really be great timing... but then again didn't Obama's grandmother die the night before he was elected or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Three words: American healthcare system (or four words if you like: American health care system). Hospitals get you in and out as fast as possible to free up beds for other insured customers patients so they can make more money.

I agree weebl.Trump is far from the perfect candidate for president but if I was in the US I would have voted for him over the others. I mean he is a dick but arent most leaders?At least he doesnt hide his faults. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LilyForrester 81 Posted January 18, 2017 http://abc7chicago.com/news/george-hw-bush-in-hospital-after-shortness-of-breath/1708003/ Wrote a letter to Trump about why he can't attend the inauguration. "My doctor says that if I sit outside in January, it likely will put me six feet under. Same for Barbara". At least he's being a gentleman about it. I really hope he makes it through January 20th so we can have Bush Sr, Carter, Clinton, Bush Jr and Obama all alive at the same time with Trump as president. I think he and Barbara go together if he goes soon. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SandyBeaches 13 Posted January 18, 2017 How selfish of George Bush Sr and Barbara Bush taking attention away from Friday's inauguration!

Exu 250 Posted January 18, 2017 I think he will hold on until Saturday. The medics will keep him going one way or another to avoid provoking the ire of Trump on his big day. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
