Former President Joe Biden told reporters in Connecticut on Friday that he is “feeling great” in his first public remarks since news of his cancer diagnosis broke last week.
Biden was in Connecticut attending his grandson Robert Hunter Biden II graduation from Salisbury School.
Last Sunday, Biden’s office revealed in a statement that he is battling an “aggressive” form of prostate cancer characterized by a “Gleason score of 9 with metastasis to the bone.”
“Cancer touches us all,” Biden wrote in the post on Twitter Monday. “Like so many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are strongest in the broken places. Thank you for lifting us up with love and support.”
