The cancer has spread, metastasised into his bones and further. It's very painful and it's very debilitating in many respects.

Joe Biden, 83, faced scrutiny over his age during his presidency. His administration has been criticized for allegedly concealing the extent of his health issues, particularly after he withdrew from the re-election race following a debate with Donald Trump. The former president publicly disclosed his cancer diagnosis in May of the previous year.

“

It's really sad to watch. 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.

Despite the progression of his illness, Hunter Biden affirmed that his father remains active and vocal on important issues. "He's still doing his thing," Hunter said. "He so believes in this country." The former president's memoir, "Promise Me, America," is slated for release in November.
