In an announcement that has caused concern among supporters, former President Joe Biden is currently receiving radiation and hormone therapy as part of his treatment for an aggressive form of prostate cancer. Biden, who is 82 years old, left the presidency in January after he withdrew from the 2024 presidential race following a difficult debate against Donald Trump, where questions surrounding his health and fitness were raised. Earlier this year, Biden’s post-presidency office revealed that he was diagnosed with prostate cancer that had metastasized to his bones, following reports of urinary symptoms. The diagnosis was serious, as Biden's Gleason score was reported to be 9, indicating a highly aggressive form of cancer. Additionally, just last month, he underwent surgery to remove skin cancer lesions from his forehead.
