Last week, the East Wing published a letter from the doctor to the President, Dr. Kevin O’Connor in which he said that Dr. Biden will undergo the procedure on Wednesday

Jill Biden, who teaches English at Northern Virginia Community College, brought a little heartache to the schoolchildren on Monday.

“You know I’m a teacher, so I’m just wondering, did you skip school to be here?” she said. “Maybe,” she remarked when the children looked embarrassed. ‘Okay, thanks for being here.’

Ahead of Monday’s NFL event, she hosted a conversation about women’s empowerment at the official residence of US Ambassador to Mexico Ken Salazar.

“We have never been silent,” she told the group. “But women have been silenced. Raising your voice is a struggle for many women around the world and they have had to fight for a seat at the table.

“When women are left behind or pushed aside, it hurts us all. But when women get the opportunities they deserve, there are no limits.”
