I'm not sure if it's appropriate to wonder out loud what/who gave Barbara Bush the ulcers (Oops, I just did, didn't I?), so I'll simply wish her a speedy recovery:
Former First Lady Barbara Bush is recovering this morning from an abdominal procedure at a Houston hospital.
A statement released by the hospital this morning said the former First Lady "underwent routine, laparoscopic surgery Tuesday night to correct a perforated ulcer. She was resting comfortably Wednesday morning, and visiting with her family."
"During the procedure last night, surgeons cleansed her abdominal area, then patched and closed a one-centimeter hole in Mrs. Bush's stomach, caused by the ulcer," the statement said. "Mrs. Bush is expected to be discharged from the hospital next week."
