It seemed that President H.W. Bush had taken a significant turn for the worse Thursday, since he had not been out of bed for several days and had not eaten anything except for a few spoonfuls of applesauce.
However, on Friday morning, his lifelong friend and Secretary of State James Baker dropped by for a visit. Bush was alert, sitting up in bed and had a large breakfast 바카라 게임 웹사이트 three five-minute soft-boiled eggs, a large cup of yogurt and two fruit drinks.

Baker was not just Bush바카라 게임 웹사이트s secretary of state. He was his close friend, tennis partner and confidant. During the recent ups and downs, Baker visited often. On Friday evening, Baker and his wife, Susan, stopped by again at the Bush home, and the former president appeared to still be doing relatively well. He was alert, sitting up and responding to questions.
The Irish tenor Ronan Tynan was at the house and sang 바카라 게임 웹사이트Silent Night바카라 게임 웹사이트 for him, with Bush mouthing the words to the song.

However, things again took a turn for the worse Friday night.
In his last hours, George H.W. Bush talked to his son, former President George W. Bush, on the phone.
The son told Bush Sr. that he had been a "wonderful father."
Bush Sr. replied, "I love you, too."
바카라 게임 웹사이트And those were the last words I heard him say," Baker said. "He was gone in about 40 minutes after that and it was a very gentle and peaceful passing."
Bush Sr. was also asked yesterday whether he wanted to go to the hospital, a source said.
He said no, the source said. He was ready to go and be with his wife Barbara and his daughter Robin, who died of leukemia as a child.
