Former U.S. President Joe Biden expressed gratitude for the support he has received from around the world after announcing on Sunday that he has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has metastasized to the bones.
Biden wrote on his social media on Monday, "Cancer touches us all," and that he and his wife Jill have learned that you are "strongest in the broken places."
Reacting to the announcement, President Donald Trump said Biden's diagnosis was "very sad," but added that he was surprised it wasn't detected earlier.
At the same time, he and First Lady Melania wished Biden a "fast and successful recovery."
While not curable, experts note that effective management can allow patients to live for several years.
