Both George H.W. Bush's and Barbara Bush's situations improve after getting hospitalized. The former president, who has been in intensive care with bacterial pneumonia, is expected to remain in the hospital but will be moved from the ICU shortly. "He is sitting up and watching TV and anxiously awaiting his favorite oyster stew for lunch," said Dr. Amy Mynderse, a hospitalist at Houston Methodist. The former first lady has been discharged after she was hospitalized with fatigue and coughing that was later diagnosed as viral bronchitis.
