Bloomberg's Premature Steve Jobs Obit: Why? [View article]
Good god, people, do some research! Steve had a Whipple Procedure which removes much of your digestive tract. A common problem, is poor nutrient uptake. A common solution is a surgical procedure, like a reverse jejunem to slow digestion and increase nutrient uptake.
Steve is virtually at the 5 year mark for his diagnosis, at which point he would be considered "cured". Cancer can be malignant or benign. The difference being the speed at which it is growing. At 5 years, recurrence by definition would be considered slow, and thus benign.
This is a total NON-ISSUE. People need to stop rumormongering.
