Former President Biden Undergoes Skin Cancer Surgery Amid Prostate Cancer Battle

News summary

President Joe Biden was recently seen with a large bandage or scar on his forehead after leaving a church in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, sparking concerns about his health. His spokesperson confirmed that Biden underwent Mohs surgery to remove skin cancer lesions, adding to his ongoing health challenges that include an aggressive form of prostate cancer with metastasis to the bone. Medical experts and observers noted the appearance and size of the scar suggested it was from cancer surgery rather than an injury from a bump or laceration. Biden's prostate cancer, diagnosed in May with a Gleason score of 9 and bone metastasis, has been a subject of medical scrutiny, with some doctors expressing disbelief that it could have gone undetected for so long. Despite these health issues, Biden and his family are managing treatment options and remain publicly engaged, though he has been seen wearing hats to conceal the forehead scar. These developments underscore the continuing health concerns for the 82-year-old president, who has also faced cancer in his family, including the loss of his son Beau to brain cancer.
