RIP Barbara Bush

[Tabascocat]

This one hurts, what a great woman and role model for women of all ages. What a life she lived for 92 years!

RIP Barbara Bush. This is sad news indeed. She was a kind soul and a good First Lady. She will be missed.

Gotta figure George ain't far behind.

Sadly, you're probably right. His health has not been good.

Class and grace personified. RIP Mrs. Bush.

Gotta figure George ain't far behind.

Quite often, spouses follow their partners death soon after. Barbara and George were extremely close, newlywed close to the end.

I would not be surprised if he passes away within a couple weeks/months. His ailing health may not be able to overcome this

 

[DallasEast]

Only the second First Lady in US history who was both a wife and mother of presidents.

Rest In Peace Mrs. Bush.

Oh, I am so shocked! When they announced yesterday that she would go on comfort care and was refusing any more treatment, I thought it would be months before illness claimed her. My goodness. I have loved and admired Mrs. Bush since I was a young girl in the early '80s. I grew up looking up to her (along with Mother Teresa and Princess Diana). She was the epitome of class and real woman, nothing fake about her and no pretenses to speak of. I love her dearly and my heart is broken.

RIP Mama Bush.

I've never know the refusal of at least cancer treatment to last a long time. My grandfather (90 years) refused cancer treatment. He was gone in just under a month. My mother passed too. She fought for a year and finally refused too. Less than a month and she was gone. Given her cancer type (esophageal cancer) and the awful survival rate. It was tough. You knew it was going to be an awful and extremely painful fight while having less than 10% chance of winning. I didn't know if I wanted her to give up or fight early on. That thought/feeling just got worse and the days / months passed. When she finally said I'm done, I was both very happy and extremely sad.

Me personally. Well, I'm racing to the box. If you're going to go out. Do it fast and furious!

Yeah, he is as old, and with her gone, I do not expect him to make it out of 2018.

As far as Barbara, she was a classy first lady.
