JUST IN: Joe Biden Breaks His Silence After Being Diagnosed with “Aggressive Form” of Prostate Cancer |

In a surprising revelation, President Joe Biden has publicly acknowledged his diagnosis of prostate cancer, a development that raises significant concerns given his age of 82.

As reported by , Biden’s office disclosed this news on Sunday, indicating that he is facing an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer that has metastasized to his bones.

The severity of Biden’s condition is underscored by a “Gleason score of 9,” a statistic that, as ABC News explains, signifies that the cancer cells exhibit considerable abnormality compared to typical prostate cells, suggesting a propensity for rapid growth and dissemination.

Interestingly, this announcement follows a hospital visit in Philadelphia a fortnight ago, during which doctors identified a “small nodule” on his prostate. The timing implies that the Biden family may have long been aware of his health issues while opting to keep the public in the dark regarding the full extent of his condition.

In fact, Biden may have inadvertently hinted at his health struggles during a speech in 2022, where he remarked about having cancer while discussing climate change at the former Brayton Point Power Station in Somerset, Massachusetts. “That’s why I and so damn many other people I grew up with have cancer,” he declared, referencing the oil slicks on his car windshield from his youth.

Furthermore, Biden’s brother, Frank, previously expressed a desire for him to return to the public eye to “enjoy whatever time we have left” in 2024, following Biden’s withdrawal from the presidential race.

On Monday morning, Biden addressed his diagnosis, sharing a photo with his wife, Jill, and their cat. True to form, he refrained from elaborating on his health status or dispelling suspicions surrounding the family’s prior silence on the matter.

“Cancer touches us all,” Biden stated. “Like so many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are strongest in the broken places.”

“Thank you for lifting us up with love and support.”

Given that President Biden still appears to be lucid and engaged, one might argue that now would be an opportune moment for him and his family to address the myriad questions swirling around the timing of this health disclosure, particularly as many Americans are eager to understand the full context of his medical journey.
