BREAKING UPDATE: Notorious for bringing about the downfall of his own party, Joe Biden now faces a life-threatening health crisis at 82.
Specifically, his team announced that he has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has already spread to the bone.
Biden’s cancer was discovered after he reported “increasing urinary symptoms,” leading to the detection of a prostate nodule.
Doctors have determined the cancer has a Gleason score of 9, significantly complicating treatment options.
“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms,” his office stated.
“On Friday he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” it added.
“While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management,” the office continued.
Medical experts have explained that while Biden’s condition is treatable due to its hormone sensitivity, it is not curable.
Dr. Matthew Smith, a cancer specialist quoted in multiple reports, made clear the limitations of what Biden now faces.
“It’s very treatable, but not curable. Most men in this situation would be treated with drugs and would not be advised to have either surgery or radiation therapy,” he said.
With metastatic prostate cancer, patients typically live about four to five years with current treatments.
President Donald Trump has shown characteristic grace despite being the target of Biden’s politically motivated legal persecution.
He expressed support for the Democrat, stating “we wish Joe a fast and successful recovery.
While Biden championed a “cancer moonshot” initiative aimed at reducing cancer death rates during his term, his own delayed diagnosis raises questions about the effectiveness of the very healthcare system he claimed to improve.
At 82, Biden falls squarely into the demographic most at risk for prostate cancer, which the CDC notes affects 13 out of every 100 males during their lifetime.
“The older a man is, the greater the chance of getting prostate cancer,” the CDC states.
The timing of this diagnosis has sparked discussions within political circles about whether Biden’s health issues were more extensive than the White House admitted during his tenure.
For years, conservative media highlighted Biden’s apparent cognitive decline while mainstream outlets dismissed these concerns as conspiracy theories.
Now, Americans are left wondering if they were deliberately misled about Biden’s health while crucial decisions affecting national security and the economy were being made.
