Hunter Biden told BBC News that former President Joe Biden's prostate cancer has spread to his bones, causing severe pain and debilitation, a stark reminder of the ongoing failures of America's healthcare system.
Hunter Biden told BBC News that his father, former President Joe Biden, is enduring a harrowing spread of prostate cancer to other parts of his body, including his bones, which he described as 'very painful and very debilitating in many respects.' The 83-year-old former president, who announced his diagnosis in May after leaving office, has undergone radiation therapy and previously had surgery for skin cancer. Despite the immense physical and emotional toll, Biden continues to make public appearances and discuss policy issues, highlighting the relentless demands placed on public servants in a system that too often neglects their well-being. Hunter added that the family finds the situation difficult to watch, a sentiment shared by countless families failed by a profit-driven healthcare industry, and expressed a wish that his father would speak more openly about his condition, breaking the stigma around illness and vulnerability. The former president is also planning to release a memoir titled 'Promise Me, America' after the upcoming midterm elections, perhaps offering a candid look at the personal and political struggles faced by those in power.
'The cancer has spread, metastasized into his bones and further,' Hunter Biden said. 'He's still doing his thing. He so believes in this country,' he added, a testament to the resilience demanded by a society that too often overlooks the suffering of its leaders and citizens alike.
