Joe Biden's 'grew up with cancer' comment triggers speculation ... (The Indian Express)

While speaking on the adverse emissions from oil refineries, Joe Biden recounted a childhood anecdote in which he said he “grew up with cancer”.

“He has had several localised, non-melanoma skin cancers removed with Mohs surgery before he started his presidency. You had to put on your windshield wipers to get literally the oil slick off the window. Biden’s physician, Dr Kevin O’Connor had mentioned his history of “non-melanoma” skin cancer in a health report last year. The White House quickly stepped in and posted a transcript of the speech, correcting his “she” reference as “I” such that the transcript read: “And I’m deeply proud of the work she is doing as First Lady with Joining Forces initiative she started with Michelle Obama when she [I] was Vice President and now carries on.” The first frost, you know what was happening? BIDEN IN APRIL: "I have asthma and 80% of the people who, in fact, we grew up with have asthma."
