1 Don't say this to be mean or vindictive.
Hope it helps in the long run.

But at 82 why?

Then there is the question.
Given his state of mind, does he even know, he is undergoing it?

But at 82 why?

2 years ago I completed prostatic radiation and anti-hormone therapy for prostate cancer which was not as advanced as Biden's case seems to be. The antihormones were not the usual treatment for my case. Radiation therapy was the only recommended treatment for me at that point. I enrolled in a study to see if the antihormones affected my eventual outcome. Those "hormone therapy" drugs block the production and effects of normal male testosterone on prostate cancer cells. Result of this is hoped to be: (1) removing the normal testosterone stimulus to cancer cell growth and (2) enhancing the destructive effects of radiation on them. Common side effects of the anti-hormones on me were fatigue, 20 weight gain and hot flashes, all typical effects of drug induced male menopause. Fatigue improved when the drugs were stopped 6 months later. Hot flashes stopped. My testosterone levels returned to normal. The extra 20 pounds persisted until I started taking Ozempic 3 months ago. Drug side effects were more of a nuisance than an illness. Prostatic radiation itself had no symptoms until my urination patterns changed as my prostate shrunk.
With Biden's more advanced case, the therapy he's getting will most likely result in less severe symptoms from his cancer and perhaps a longer interval of a painfree life. Just my anecdote and opinion.
Remember that the information available to the public about Biden's cancer has been "curated" by his keepers for years.

3 I pray for Joe although I never liked him when he was in control of his faculties. The VP Uncle Joe stage was no better. To me, as president he was a victim and a tool to block Trump and try to complete Obama’s agenda. I would think that they delayed treatment of his prostate issue to control the narrative of his health being marginal. Nothing that happened in the White House was beneficial to Joe. He was exploited by his party, his handlers and his wife. I do pray for my enemies. I also pray for Joe although I don’t consider him to be an enemy just a rusty knife in the hand of a punk who mugged me.

6 I do pray for my enemies.

As do I.
I pray their pain will follow them to hell, as mine will.
