'Dilbert' creator Scott Adams says he's dying from same kind of cancer that Joe Biden has

Adams, who said he has been using a walker for months, went on to detail how he is "always in pain" and doesn't "have good days," telling viewers, "Every day is a nightmare, and evening is even worse." Adams announced the news after expressing "compassion and sympathy" for Biden, who a spokesperson said on May 18 has been diagnosed with an "aggressive form" of prostate cancer that has spread to the bone. The former president was diagnosed on May 16 after "experiencing urinary symptoms," the spokesperson said, adding that although the cancer is aggressive, it appears "to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management."

‘Dilbert’ creator Scott Adams reveals same cancer diagnosis as Biden, says he has months to live

Scott Adams, the creator of the ‘Dilbert’ comic strip, has revealed he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer that has metastasized to his bones. Adams, 67, brought up the diagnosis Monday during a stream on his Rumble account, while discussing former President Joe Biden’s similar prostate cancer diagnosis. “I’ve decided that today’s the day that I’m going to take the opportunity, since a lot of you are here, to make an announcement of my own,” Adams said during his podcast. “Some of you have already guessed, so this won’t surprise you all. But I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has.” “But I’ve had it longer than he’s had it. Well, longer than he’s admitted having it,” Adams added. “So my life expectancy is maybe this summer. I expect to be checking out from this domain sometime this summer.”

Dilbert creator announces he was diagnosed with same kind of prostate cancer as Biden

Scott Adams, the creator of the comic strip “Dilbert,” announced on Monday that he had been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. He said it was the same kind of cancer former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with. “Dilbert” was a famous comic strip that humorously criticized the inner workings of corporate America through the life of a fictitious and animated engineer named Dilbert. It ran from April 1989 until March 2023, after numerous publications dropped the comic strip over comments Adams made about race relations in the country. Adams announced his prostate cancer diagnosis on his Real Coffee with Scott Adams podcast. After talking about Biden’s diagnosis, wishing him well, and analyzing many of the responses to Biden’s cancer revelation, Adams told his audience of his bout with the disease.
