Former President faints, shrugs it off

March 14, 2007

Former US President George Bush spoke to a crowd in Los Angeles, California the same day he was released from a hospital. Former President George H.W. Bush, father of the current president, was treated overnight at a California hospital after becoming dizzy and dehydrated in the desert heat, a hospital spokeswoman said on Monday. The White House said President George W. Bush was informed by his personal physician, Dr. Richard Tubb, about his father's condition Sunday before traveling to Guatemala City and spoke with him en route.
