The prognosis is good. It's moving forward. So it feels good, said Biden in a first public comment on the cancer diagnosis.
The news that Biden suffers from an aggressive prostate cancer came earlier in May.
On Friday, he held a speech in connection with a Memorial Day ceremony in Wilmington, Delaware. Afterwards, he told reporters that he had started cancer treatment and that he, among other things, takes medication.
The expectations are that we will get through this, said Biden.
The 82-year-old brought up his son Beau Biden, who died of cancer ten years ago.
Being with all of you, quite honestly, makes it a little easier. Thanks for letting me mourn with you.
