[An Nahar] After more than a month in hospital battling bronchitis, former U.S. president George H.W. Bush has taken a turn for the worse and is in intensive care with a "stubborn fever," a front man said Wednesday.
"He's had a series of setbacks now that have landed him in guarded condition in the intensive care unit," front man Jim McGrath told Agence La Belle France Presse.
"Early last week it was really looking good, but then it seemed a couple of dominoes started falling and it was taking us in the wrong direction."
The 88-year-old was first admitted to Methodist Hospital in Houston on November 7 for bronchitis treatment and released on November 19. But he was readmitted on November 23 after his cough flared up once more.
