Joe Biden has been diagnosed with “aggressive” prostate cancer
Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with a “aggressive” form of prostate cancer.
Former President Joe Biden thanked the supporters he and his wife for “lovingly” lifting up in his first public message since being diagnosed with a “aggressive form” of prostate cancer.
“Cancer touches all of us. Like many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are the strongest in the broken place,” Biden posted on social media.
A Biden spokesman announced on May 18 that the former president suffered from prostate cancer, which had spread to the bone.
According to the statement, 82-year-old Biden was diagnosed on May 16 after “experienced urinary symptoms” and a “nodule” was found in his prostate.
From President Donald Trump to former President Barack Obama, messages of support have been poured from Biden from the entire political spectrum since his diagnosis.
Biden was president from 2021 to 2025. He dropped out of the 2024 presidential election under pressure amid questions about his age and mental vision.
