Barbara Bush taken to hospital

Our prayers go up for former First Lady Barbara Bush who was taken to Methodist Hospital Tuesday. The Houston Chronicle reported:

Former first lady Barbara Bush was taken to Methodist Hospital in the Medical Center Tuesday evening after suffering a "little bit of pain," family spokesman Jim McGrath said.

The 83-year-old was taken by private car about dinner time, and doctors are running tests, he added.

"So far everything is negative," McGrath said.

"Fortunately, it looks like it's going to be a small matter," he said.

Former President Bush was with his wife at the hospital.

Sending up a prayer of thanks for this wonderful family and their leadership throughout the years ... and that Mrs. Bush will be fine and home for Thanksgiving.
