Piggs, as you know, we all just get one shot on this earth. At only 55, I think Jobs has done a bang-up job in this department and is leaving a legacy for his family to be proud of for generations to come!
Apparently, he is a pancreatic cancer survivor since ’03/’04. He apparently was operable at the time (rare) and even sought alternative remedies in Switzerland. His cancer has recently returned. He was scheduled to meet with President Obama today.
The computer genius is expected to join Facebook founder Mark Zuckerburg and Google CEO Eric Schmidt at a private meeting in Silicon Valley to discuss the President’s technology policies.
I recently finished reading Patrick Swayze’s memoir, The Time of My Life (that I got for x-mas) and have lost several relatives from a same or similar fate, both older and younger than Jobs. He’s obviously trying to wrap things up now and perhaps make a last-ditch effort at Stanford for chemo treatment. Gotta hand it to him. He has been some change agent for mankind and the world. There is no cure for this deadly disease and Jobs has been extremely fortunate to make it as long and far as as he did.
With all due respect, I wish he and his family peace.
