President George H.W. Bush to remain in hospital a 'few more days'
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- President George H.W. Bush will stay in the hospital for a 'few more days' of observation. Doctors hope to discharge him by the end of the week.
The 41st president has been receiving treatment at Methodist Hospital for more than a week now. President Bush, 92, was admitted to Houston Methodist Hospital Friday, April 14 for observation due to a persistent cough. It was determined he had a mild case of pneumonia.
On Thursday, his eldest son, President George W. Bush, dropped by for a visit.
"President Bush feels terrific, and is buoyed by regular visits from his family and phone calls with friends such as VP Dan Quayle today," McGrath said in a tweet last week.
This is the third hospitalization in recent months for the president.
