Former US President George HW Bush and his wife Barbara Bush have been
admitted to a hospital in Houston, Texas, according to a spokesman.
The 41st president was admitted on Saturday due to "an acute
respiratory problem stemming from pneumonia".
The 92-year-old has now been moved to the intensive care unit after
doctors performed a "procedure to protect and clear his airway".
Mrs Bush, 91, was admitted on Wednesday suffering from fatigue and a
cough.
During his procedure, Mr Bush was sedated, his spokesman Jim McGrath
said in a statement.
