After Donald Trump Jr. penned a widely criticized message concerning Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis, Biden is addressing his health in a recently shared post.
Today, May 19, 2025, the former President of the United States (POTUS) Joe Biden shared a photo of himself and his wife on X, along with a brief message, breaking his silence about his cancer diagnosis. Many netizens who have seen this post have reacted swiftly, sending prayers and well wishes to Biden.
In the image, the couple sits closely together in a warmly lit room, both donning soft-toned attire. The Former First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS) gently cradles their cat, who appears calm yet alert, nestled safely in her arms.
Their expressions are gentle, yet beneath their smiles lies a quiet intensity. The setting, though understated, lends a sense of comfort and closeness — cream-colored Roman shades, the couch they sat on, and a white lamp.
This isn’t just any ordinary post. It is accompanied by a deeply personal message from Joe Biden that struck a chord with many across the country. He reflected on the all-too-common experience of cancer — a disease that has, in one way or another, touched nearly every household.
His words acknowledged the pain and resilience that come hand-in-hand with such a battle. Biden spoke of the strength found in life’s most fragile moments and expressed gratitude for the unwavering support that he and his wife have received during trying times.
Upon seeing this post, netizens wasted no time in flocking to the comment sections with reactions. “Prayers for you always but especially now. Stay strong sir [sic],” penned a Facebooker, while another expressed, “What a wonderful, unselfish message! You are both so special! May you be blessed with many more years together!”
Echoing similar sentiments, someone else wrote, “Prayers for healing and strength, President Biden. All the love, support and compassion you have conveyed throughout your life, is blessed upon you and your family. God bless. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💕 [sic].”
“She looks very worried [sic] bless her heart,” added someone else. Biden’s post comes after reports first announced that he has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones.
His personal office confirmed the news via a statement on Sunday, May 18. More details on the story will follow shortly.
