Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, his office said Sunday.
Biden was seen by doctors last week after urinary symptoms and a prostate nodule were found. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer on Friday, with the cancer cells having spread to the bone.
"While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management," his office said. "The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians."
Prostate cancers are given a score called a Gleason score that measures, on a scale of 1 to 10, how the cancerous cells look compared with normal cells. Biden’s office said his score was 9, suggesting his cancer is among the most aggressive.

He won't, but he'll get the Last Rites administered by a Catholic Priest, plus a Catholic service and burial.
Of course, they knew long ago and are only just telling us now to get sympathy.
Who would have thought to test an elderly man for prostrate cancer. Did Jill delay treatment?
a doc just said there is only ‘1 incidence of escape to the bones’ (or something like that) and says his ‘chances are good’
and mentally-
So, they are telling us that this old man did not get an annual PSA or manual test every year? Because prostate cancer doesn’t usually grow this fast.
Secondarily, they will start to tell us how spreading to the bones will impact cognitive ability. It has to do with how the calcium in the bones is dissolved into solution and carried by the blood to the brain…where it can do some funky stuff.
This whole thing smells to high heaven.
I am sorry that this will kill the man. And I will say a prayer for him. But damn the people around him. Their egos probably ended up killing him.
Exactly that is why they waited til now that way they are bulletproof you can’t touch him now without them saying have you no decency the man’s dying
Both my parents and a sister died of lung cancer. My whole family were smokers. I wasn't, and I'm the last one left in my family. My youngest son had Stage 3 colon cancer in 2019, had surgery and 6 months of chemo, is cancer free, but will have to have regular colonoscopies and scans. I will never be able to understand why innocent people have to suffer and die young, while evil people like Biden and the Clintons are allowed to flourish and continue with their evil ways right up until their end.
Jill will help!
Not in the bones it doesn’t. If it is already in the bones, it’s also wherever it went to get into the bones. And it is likely hiding throughout his body. They would not likely put him on strong chemo as that would kill him.
Biden had the best health care with the best doctors on the planet, yet didn’t know about his prostrate cancer till it had “spread to the bone”?
Please tell us another story.
Just think of the funeral and coverage.
They’ll pump him up past Nixon and maybe even Carter as a statesman.
Remember all his talk of curing cancer, his slip up of saying he had cancer, his incontinence issues? They’ve known all along. He probably was supposed to have died in office and Harris take over. He was never very sharp, but whatever meds they have him on made him worse.
Yes, I hope he gets right with God.
Metastasized to the spine is a killer, that’s how my Father in Law died.
I had it but the PSA tests caught it very early so that a HIFU procedure could remove my prostate with no problems.
Better stock up on barf bags.
“Jill will help!”
She’s probably already sniffing around for her next meal ticket.
Right, over the cliff.
