Meghan McCain, the daughter of John, broke down in discussing her father's battle with brain cancer, recalling that Mr Biden's son Beau had the same condition.
"I think about Beau almost every day and I was told that this doesn't get easier but that you cultivate the tools to work with this and live with this," Meghan McCain said as her voice began breaking.
"I know you and your family have been through tragedy I couldn't conceive of."
Mr Biden was quick to embrace her and said, "one of the things that gave Beau courage... was John."
"Your dad, took care of my Beau.
"Beau talked about your dad's courage, not about illness, but about courage."
