Joe Biden is scaling back his book tour as he battles cancer.
Biden wrote in a post on X, “Some days are better than others. It hasn’t stopped me. But sometimes it slows me down. What that means is, unfortunately, I won’t be able to do as many conversations about my book as I’d hoped. However, I’m hopeful the words on the page speak for themselves.”
I want to share a brief update.
My presidential memoir, PROMISE ME, AMERICA, is coming out on November 17th. I hope you’ll read it. It covers my years as President. The challenges we faced, the decisions I made, and why I made them. It’s about who we are as a nation. What we stand for. And America’s role in the world. More than anything, it’s about my faith in the American people and the great American experiment in self-governance and democracy.
While writing the book, I was diagnosed with cancer, a disease known all too well to millions of Americans and their families. My doctors continue to be encouraged by how I’ve responded to treatment. And the prayers and kind words and well wishes from so many of you have meant more to me and Jill and our family than you can ever know.
Some days are better than others. It hasn’t stopped me. But sometimes it slows me down. What that means is, unfortunately, I won’t be able to do as many conversations about my book as I’d hoped. However, I’m hopeful the words on the page speak for themselves.
Looking forward, I’m going to keep following what my father told me a long time ago: “Champ, when you get knocked down, get up.” It’s a good lesson for me. And for America.
We are blessed. America is the most unique nation on earth. Unlike other countries, we’re built on an idea. An idea bigger than any ocean. More powerful than any army. Stronger than any tyrant or dictator. That idea? All of us are created equal.
Promise Me, America, we’ll never forget it.

The former president announced on X that the tour for his upcoming memoir, Promise Me, America, will be facing some hurdles due to his recovery from prostate cancer.
“While writing the book, I was diagnosed with cancer, a disease known all too well to millions of Americans and their families,” he wrote. “My doctors continue to be encouraged by how I’ve responded to treatment. And the prayers and kind words and well wishes from so many of you have meant more to me and Jill and our family than you can ever know.”

Biden was diagnosed with prostate cancer in January 2025.
Months after leaving office in January 2025, Biden, 83, announced that he had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer and has since undertaken courses of radiation therapy and hormone treatment.
Last year, his office also shared that he had undergone surgery to remove cancerous skin cells.

In August, his son, Hunter Biden, told the BBC in an interview that his father’s cancer had spread to other parts of his body and was causing him pain, even as he continues to speak out on public issues.
“The cancer has spread, metastasized into his bones and further,” Hunter Biden told the BBC in August. “It’s very painful and it’s very debilitating in many respects.”
