The intricacies of the Biden family dynamics have long been a subject of fascination for the American public. The latest revelations about the family’s past come from an upcoming book titled “American Woman,” authored by New York Times White House correspondent Katie Rogers. The book sheds light on a pivotal moment in Jill Biden’s life, when she demanded a say in her husband Joe Biden’s health care during his health crisis in 1988.
Joe Biden, the current President of the United States, had two life-threatening brain aneurysms in 1988. The doctors gave him a 50-50 chance of survival. For Jill Biden, the diagnosis was the latest setback after a stressful year. She had spent months campaigning on her husband’s behalf, despite her discomfort with public speaking. She was raising their three children, Beau, Hunter, and Ashley, who were all in different stages of adjusting to school and life in Delaware.
The moment of decision came when Joe Biden was undergoing medical treatments at Walter Reed. Jill Biden, feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, demanded a say in her husband’s care. “Wait a minute!”, she yelled at the group. “He’s my husband. I should be making the decision here.” The family was stunned, but Joe’s mother eventually agreed, settling the matter. This was the moment when Jill Biden felt she had “become a full-fledged Biden.”
The book “American Woman” documents how Jill Biden’s role as first lady has evolved in the 21st century. Jill Biden and Joe Biden married in 1977, following the death of the future president’s first wife and their young daughter in a car accident in 1972. Biden had two other children with his first wife, Beau and Hunter, who were later raised by Jill Biden alongside their younger half-sister Ashley Biden.
As a Delaware senator, Biden had two life-threatening brain aneurysms, and doctors warned that if he survived, there was a chance that the part of his brain that governed his speech would be damaged. For Jill, the diagnosis was the latest setback after a stressful year. She had spent months campaigning on her husband’s behalf, despite her discomfort with public speaking. She was raising their three children, Beau, Hunter, and Ashley, who were all in different stages of adjusting to school and life in Delaware.
Biden’s surgeries were successful, with no reports of an aneurysm since. After Jill Biden experienced the turning point of becoming a “full-fledged” member of the family, she went on to become the “powerful guardian of the Biden inner circle.” The book reports that Jill Biden has been a leading force behind Joe Biden’s re-election campaign, which is partially motivated by a “dislike for Trump.”
