Former U.S. President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, his personal office has confirmed. Medical reports indicate that the cancer has spread to his bones, but doctors believe it is hormone-sensitive, making it potentially manageable with treatment.
Diagnosis and Health Condition
Biden, 82, underwent medical evaluation after experiencing urinary symptoms earlier this month. On May 16, 2025, doctors confirmed the diagnosis, prompting his family to explore treatment options.
Political and Public Impact
The news comes nearly a year after Biden withdrew from the 2024 U.S. presidential race, citing concerns about health and age. While he has largely retreated from public life, he recently made a few public appearances, including an interview where he dismissed worries about cognitive decline.
Next Steps
As Biden’s family continues discussions with doctors, the public awaits further updates on his condition. His team has assured supporters that he remains optimistic and committed to his recovery.
Stay tuned for more details on his health journey. 🇺🇸💙
