She's not suffering. She lives in the WH for christsake.
Seems like a bit of a non sequitur to me...
I will grant that I am presuming accurate and factual 'reporting' (which is a leap of some faith), but cancer is not a stranger to me.
There will be suffering for any who fall prey to this illness.

First lady Dr. Jill Biden on Wednesday spent several hours at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, undergoing a scheduled outpatient procedure that revealed a second area of concern for skin cancer.
According to a letter issued by White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor, Biden had a Mohs surgery to remove and examine a lesion above her right eye, which was recently discovered during a routine skin cancer checkup.
“The procedure confirmed the small lesion was basal cell carcinoma,” O’Connor wrote in the letter. “All cancerous tissue was successfully removed, and the margins were clear of any residual skin cancer cells.”
However, during a pre-operative consultation, O’Connor noted “an additional area of concern was identified on the left side of the first lady’s chest.”
This area was also treated with Mohs surgery on Wednesday, prolonging the length of the overall procedure and keeping the first lady, who was accompanied by President Joe Biden through most of the day, at Walter Reed longer than a White House official had previously indicated to CNN.
The chest lesion was also confirmed to be basal cell carcinoma, according to O’Connor, and was “successfully removed.”
A separate small lesion on the first lady’s left eyelid was also found during the operation and was removed, O’Connor wrote. That lesion was sent for “standard microscopic examination.”
