'Very debilitating': Hunter Biden opens up about his father's cancer
Former US president Joe Biden's prostate cancer has spread to other parts of his body and is causing him pain, even as he continues to speak out on public issues, according to his son Hunter.
Former US President Joe Biden's prostate cancer has progressed and is causing him significant pain and debilitation, according to his son Hunter Biden. In a recent interview with BBC Newsnight, Hunter described the condition as "very sad to watch" and emphasized the pain and debilitating effects it has on his father. The 83-year-old former president, who served as the oldest man to hold the office, was diagnosed with cancer in May of the previous year, just four months after leaving the White House.
Despite his age and health issues, Joe Biden has remained politically active, and a memoir is set to be released later this year titled "Promise Me, America." Hunter expressed his wish that his father would complain more about his health, noting that it is not good. Despite these challenges, Joe Biden continues to speak out on public issues and remains committed to his country, according to Hunter.
