Former President George H. W. Bush in fair condition after fall

Former President George H. W. Bush has been listed in fair condition after he fell at his home and broke a bone in his neck.

The Associated Press noted that a spokesman for the 41st president, said Wednesday that he was hospitalized after a fall at his vacation home in Kennebunkport, Maine, but is doing OK.

"41 fell at home in Maine today and broke a bone in his neck," spokesman Jim McGrath tweeted. "His condition is stable — he is fine — but he'll be in a neck brace."

There has been no word yet on when he will be released.

At 91, Bush is the oldest-living former president. He has had a number of health problems in the past. As we previously reported, he was in the hospital last year after experiencing shortness of breath and treated for a persistent cough in 2012.

He suffers from a form of Parkinson's disease called vascular Parkinsonism and mostly uses a scooter and wheelchair to get around.
