After the diagnosis by former president Joe Biden of an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer, political figures like Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton and others share their good wishes with the veteran politician.
“Doug and I are saddened to learn the diagnosis of President Biden’s prostate cancer”, shared the former vice -president on X. “We keep it, Dr. Biden, and their whole family in our hearts and our prayers during this period. Joe is a fighter – and I know that he will be confronted with this challenge with the same force, the same termination and optimism that have always defined his life and leadership. Hoped for a complete and fast recovery. ”
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton added on the platform: “I think of Bidens when they take cancer, a disease they have done so much to try to save other families. I wish you a quick and complete recovery. ”
The former American transport secretary under Biden, Pete Buttigieg, wrote: “President Biden is a man of deep faith and extraordinary resilience. Chasten and I keep him, and the whole Biden family, in our prayers for strength and healing. ”
California governor Gavin Newsom said in a statement on X: “Our hearts are with President Biden and his whole family right now. A man of dignity, strength and compassion as his merit of living a long and beautiful life. Sending strength, healing and prayers. ”
The American representative, Jasmine Crockett, added: “My heart is with President Biden and his family. Lift him in prayer and wish him a peaceful and successful healing trip. ”
Prayer offers also came on the other side of the political aisle, in particular the former main republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and the representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.
The first wrote: “Aside from the policy, let us pray for the health of the former president of our country. His case of metastatic prostate cancer seems to be still in the stage of hormonal disease, which leaves the possibility of effective treatment open.”
Meanwhile, the latter said, “I’m sorry to see this news. Cancer is really horrible. My father died in 2021 with cancer. Pray for Joe Biden and his family. “
Announced today via an official declaration of his personal office, the diagnosis of Biden came after the doctors discovered a new nodule of the prostate after the old potus began to feel increasing urinary symptoms. Characterized by a Gleason score of 9 with bone metastases, diagnosis is considered a high risk, because scores of 8 to 10 are considered very aggressive and rapid growth. However, the press release indicates that Biden and his family “examine the treatment options with his doctors” and that the disease “seems to be sensitive to hormones that allows effective management”.
