Bush was hospitalized for a blood infection last week, just one day after he laid his wife, former first lady Barbara Bush, to rest. The health scare landed him in the intensive care unit but he has since moved out to a regular patient room where he is receiving treatment and expected to leave soon.
Following his stay in the intensive care unit, Bush assured everyone that he’s feeling better and “more focused on the Houston Rockets” run in the NBA playoffs.
