A powerful video has resurfaced that shows then–former Vice President Joe Biden consoling a sobbing Meghan McCain on The View as she discussed her father's grim cancer diagnosis.
But now, in a cruel twist of fate, it's Biden who's in need of comfort with his inspirational words now laced with irony following news of his aggressive, metastatic prostate cancer.
The clip, filmed in December 2017, shows Meghan McCain break down mid-question as she asks Biden how to cope with watching a loved one battle cancer.
Her father, Senator John McCain, had just been diagnosed with glioblastoma - the same aggressive brain cancer that had claimed Beau Biden, the president's eldest son, just two years earlier.
Without hesitation, Biden walks around the table to speak to her close up, clasps Meghan's hand, and says with quiet intensity: 'There is hope… If anyone can make it, it's your dad.'
