HOUSTON -

Vice President Joe Biden remains in Houston Wednesday with his son, Beau, who is undergoing another round of medical testing.

Sources familiar with Beau Biden's condition, though not his doctor's, told NBC News Wednesday morning that he has a mass in his brain, which is why he is receiving diagnostic testing MD Anderson Cancer Center in the Medical Center.

Ripe age for a glioblastoma multiforme. Prayers it is not and whatever the mass, it is manageable.

I didn't see that when I responded. I thought it was the VP.

How come I know Beus's name, what has he done?

Nevertheless, I pray he gets better; any time there's something wrong in your head, it's dicey. I've seen it in family members as well as friend's parents and they either get better 100% or they have some major issue like one side paralysis for the rest of their lives.

From the article:

Last Wednesday, the 44-year-old Biden reported feeling weak and disoriented during a family vacation in Indiana.

Possible aneurism is really bad news.

Leaving aside the prayer issue, do you really believe it is possible to be a high ranking dem piece of sub-human filth and NOT hate the country. You MUST hate the country to be in that party. Could you love the nation and sit by while they do what they do?

You got that right. It’s all about them and no one can deny that unless they are under some rock.

“Biden’s father has had health scares of his own, including a life-threatening brain aneurysm in 1988, when he was 45.

Oh, thanks for the clarification, RummyChick. An aneurysm is not at all the same as a tumor -- it's a burst blood vessel that then damages surrounding tissue, like a stroke.

He doesn’t hate America, he hates that America is a Constitutional Republic, or was.

That being said, Prayers for the Son.

I had two friends die in their forties from brain tumors, leaving children. It was not a pretty picture. God bless his children.

This is going to be the most screwed up thread of the day because NBC doesn’t know how to write a headline.

You clarified the headline just fine.

The inability of people to read more than five words at a time screws up a lot of things.

My dad was diagnosed with two masses on the brain in early December (glioblastomas). He passed away on April 2. This is tough, serious situation, so I do offer my sincere wishes for healing/recovery, etc. to young Mr. Biden.

“Whether you agree with their policies or not..at least Biden doesn’t hate America...”

Just how can you come to that conclusion when he’s the “principle enabler” of our half-breed president?

Biden has spent the last 7 years telling everyone how to live their life.
To Biden: Pull the beam out of your own eye first.

Possible aneurism is really bad news.

People can recover completely; other survivors become paralyzed or can't speak afterward. In view that he was sent to such a world-class facility, it probably doesn't look good for a full recovery any time soon, if ever.

I could say something uncharitable here, but I won't.

It’s just my own personal opinion. He doesn’t hate America like Obambi does.

I think they knew exactly what they were doing. Sensationalism! Some freepers are falling right into the trap. How awful for this young man and his family. Prayers for Beau.
