The former President underwent an emergency procedure to clear his airways after being rushed to hospital with pneumonia, his office said on Wednesday.

His wife, former first lady Barbara Bush, also was admitted to the same hospital on Wednesday as a precaution after experiencing fatigue and coughing.

Instead he would be staying home on doctor’s orders as he and his wife recover.

George Bush senior's letter to Donald Trump

Trump had been critical of George W and Jeb during the 2016 presidential campaign and their father did not endorse Trump in his race against Democrat Hillary Clinton.

But in his letter, Bush said he and his wife would be with Trump in spirit at the inauguration and wished him "the very best".

Bush, who at 92 is the nation's oldest living ex-president, has been at Houston Methodist Hospital since Saturday after experiencing shortness of breath, according to family spokesman Jim McGrath.

Since then, Bush experienced an "acute respiratory problem stemming from pneumonia" and was sedated for the unspecified procedure.

He will remain in the hospital's intensive-care unit for observation, his office said.

The 91-year-old former first lady, Barbara Bush, has also been admitted to hospital as a precaution after suffering from a coughing attack.

The couple marked their 72nd anniversary on January 6.
