Former President Joe Biden, 82, has been diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer, his personal office confirmed on Sunday, May 18.
The statement revealed, “Last week, doctors discovered a prostate nodule after Biden reported worsening urinary symptoms.”
The statement added, “On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, marked by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5), with signs it has spread to the bone.”
Though serious, the update noted the cancer is hormone-sensitive — meaning it can still be treated effectively.
This is a developing story. More details to follow.
