Houston:
A spokesman for George HW Bush says the former US President's breathing has "returned to normal" but he will remain in a hospital for at least another night pending approval from doctors for him to return to his Houston home.
Today marks one week since the 90-year-old Bush, the US's oldest living former President, was taken by ambulance to Houston's Methodist Hospital to address shortness of breath. Bush Family spokesman Jim McGrath has described the hospitalization as a precaution.
In a statement on Monday, he said Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush wanted to "thank everyone for their good wishes and prayers."
Two years ago, Bush spent nearly two months at the same hospital for treatment of a bronchitis-related cough and other issues. He also has a form of Parkinson's disease.
