Former US President Joe Biden’s prostate cancer has spread to other parts of his body and is causing him pain, his son Hunter Biden revealed.

n

Hunter Biden grew emotional as he discussed his father’s deteriorating condition, describing it to BBC as very sad to watch.

n

“The cancer has spread, metastasized into his bones and further,” he said. “It’s very painful and it’s very debilitating in many respects.”

n

The former president revealed his cancer diagnosis in May of last year, less than four months after he left the White House.

n

Hunter Biden said the diagnosis had been tough on the family.

n

“It’s really sad to watch,” Hunter said. “The only thing that I’d say about my dad, about his health right now, is I wish he would complain more, because it’s not good.

n

“He is the center of our family… He is our rock.”

n

The update comes after former First Lady Jill Biden told Today her husband would “live with cancer the rest of his life.”

n

‘I think if he had just been diagnosed with prostate cancer, that’s one thing because that can be cured, but the fact that it metastasized to his bones, that makes it a whole different story,’ she said in June.

n

“So I think Joe will live with cancer till the rest of his life.”

n

Joe has previously undergone radiation and hormone treatment. He also had surgery to remove cancerous skin cells in September.

n

Hunter said his father remains ‘out there,’ speaking publicly about the issues that are important to him.

n

“He’s still doing his thing,’ he said. ‘He so believes in this country.”

n

Joe, 83, was the oldest man to serve as US president and his age was a source of concern for much of his four years in office. DailyMail
