BIDDEFORD, Maine (AP) Former President George H.W. Bush has tweeted a cheerful message from his hospital bed while reading a book about himself and his recently deceased wife, Barbara.
The 41st president, who’s 93, is recovering in a Maine hospital after experiencing low blood pressure and fatigue. He posted a picture of himself Friday reading the book “George & Barbara Bush: A Great American Love Story.”
Bush said the book’s “a wonderful walk down memory lane” and “another reminder of how lucky I have been in life.”
Barbara Bush died in April at age 92. She was married to the former president for 73 years.
A spokesman for Bush said earlier in the week that the former president was in good spirits but would be in the hospital for a few more days.
