June 19, 2025 – Joe Biden will not defeat the cancer. Nor will the cancer defeat Joe Biden. Prostate cancer is not an opponent and there is no scorecard. The notion of “defeating cancer” is a lesion in our language and our national psyche that does damage to both the inflicted and their loved ones. There is no war when it comes to cancer—no winners, no losers, no ties. There is just reality.
One surrenders to the emperor of all maladies and the exigencies of modern medicine. One has neither the energy nor expertise to do otherwise. Hell, the testing alone will corrode body and soul. After suspicious signs are discovered, one follows orders even if one’s natural tendencies are to buck any system.
