Joe Biden Undergoing Cancer Treatment
Former President Joe Biden, 82, is currently undergoing radiation and hormone therapy for an aggressive form of prostate cancer that was diagnosed in May. The cancer has spread to his bones, making it incurable but treatable, according to medical experts. His treatment, including a five-week radiation regimen, is aimed at managing the disease and improving quality of life.
Biden’s office previously confirmed a Gleason score of 9, indicating a highly aggressive form of prostate cancer. Despite the seriousness, Biden has said he feels well and remains optimistic.
Last month, he also underwent Mohs surgery to remove a skin cancer lesion. In 2023, a similar procedure removed a cancerous lesion from his chest while he was still in office.
Biden withdrew from the 2024 presidential race after a poor debate performance, endorsing Kamala Harris. Sources say he remains privately frustrated over the decision and is now focused on writing his memoir and planning his presidential library
