Joe Biden breaks silence about devastating prostate cancer diagnosis

Joe Biden82, spoke for the first time since his cancer Diagnosis with a social media post on Monday morning.

“Cancer touches all of us,” wrote the former president on X with a selfie of him with a brave smile next to a gloomy -looking former First Lady Jill Bidenwho holds their gray tabby cat Willow.

“Like so many of you, Jill and I learned that we are the strongest in the broken places,” Biden added. “Thank you for lifting us with love and support.”

A statement about the diagnosis said that the Biden family decides on treatment options.

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate lump after experiencing increasing urine buckets,” is the explanation.

“On Friday he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a gleason score of 9 (degree group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” adds to the serious prognosis.

Prostate cancers get a ‘Gleason score’, which measures what the cancer cells look like compared to normal cells. Biden’s score of 9 suggests that his cancer is the most aggressive.

“Although this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer seems to be hormone sensitive that makes effective management possible,” his office noted.

The announcement came only a week after reports revealed that a ‘small lump’ was found on the prostate of Biden who needed ‘further evaluation’.

It is common for Biden’s Advanced Age to experience prostate issues. According to the American Cancer Society, more than half of the prostate cancer have been found in men older than 65.

A lump is a sturdy lump or swelling that can develop throughout the body. Although they can be benign and harmless, some can be associated with greater health problems such as infections or, in this case, cancer.

President Donald Trump has released a brief statement To Truth Social on Sunday who said he and First Lady Melania Trump ‘were sad to’ hear ‘about the diagnosis of Biden’s Cancer.

“We wish Joe a quick and successful recovery,” wrote Trump.

When in function of presidents receive thorough annual physics. This would probably include a prostate -specific antigen (PSA) for someone from Biden’s age, which measures the level of PSA in the blood. If increased, this may indicate prostate cancer or other prostate disorders.

The doctor of Biden, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, in a statement after a check in February 2024: ‘The president feels good and the physical identified no new concerns this year. It remains suitable for duty and performs all his responsibilities completely without exemptions or accommodations. ‘

But skepticism has emerged about the timeline of the diagnosis of Biden and claims that he was probably much more aware of his cancer than is depicted – especially given the advanced stage of just over a year after his last presidential physical.

During his time back in the White House four years after his two periods as VP, Biden housed his Cancer Moonshot initiative.

Originally in charge of the effort under President Barack Obama, Biden brought it back in 2022 with the aim of reducing the death rate of the cancer by 2047. It also tried to improve the life of people with cancer.

The son of former President Beau Biden died in 2015 at the age of 46 after being diagnosed in 2013 with Glioblastoma Multiforme, the most aggressive kind of brain cancer. His father claimed that the cancer was a result of the exposure of his beau to military burns when he served in Iraq.

May 30 of this year marks the 10 -year anniversary of Beau’s Death.

Biden usually spends that day with his family in his home church St. Joseph at the Brandywine in Wilmington, Delaware for a special mass and to visit his son’s grave.

In February 2023, Biden had removed a cancer-like lesion from his chest and before the office came in, several non-melanoma had removed skin cancer spots with MOHS operation.

While he was still president in February 2024, the Biden doctor “Fit to serve” after a routine physically in Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

Still questions about the age of the former president, health and fitness for the office, eventually led him to dump his re-election campaign and to have the then vice-president Kamala Harris, 60.

Leaders within the Democratic party recently started publicly admitting that Biden should not have been re -elected in 2024. Some claim that they were duped by advisers who protected the then president of the public and members of the party he was healthy and fit behind the scenes.

Harris responded to the news about Biden’s health update by saying that she and former second gentlemen Doug Emhoff ‘are sad to learn from the diagnosis of President Biden.’

“We keep him, Dr. Biden, and their whole family in our hearts and prayers during this time. Joe is a hunter – and I know that he will take on this challenge with the same power, resilience and optimism that have always defined his life and leadership. We are hopeful for a complete and fast recovery, “she wrote former VP.

The office of Biden claims the form of cancer he has, seems to be hormone sensitive and can be effectively managed by various treatments – including blocking testosterone because that hormone can help grow and thrive the cancer.

“The president and his family assess treatment options with his doctors,” says it.
