I found out about Biden and I can't stop crying....

About an hour ago I opened DU and read about Biden's diagnosis and I have been crying since.

I think I am expressing emotions from many areas. I am devastated and crying that the best POTUS in my lifetime could be dying soon. I am crying because I can see how far the USA has fallen as a wonderful democracy. I am crying because I am broken and I see clearly.

I am crying.

And, apparently, there are treatment options.

Someone posted a person't reddit post & said they had same dx & it was very managable.

Joe Biden's life has been one of service and he stands for what we as Democrats work toward. I'm his generation and recently lost my brother. It hits hard as the generation ages. May the seeds of the Democratic live on through the young.

I have a lot of questions about the seemingly delayed diagnosis, but that can wait. Right now, I just want him to hear from those of us who love and appreciate him--no naysayers-- and that he gets the very best of care going forward.

Love and Care, Mr. President.
