Steve jobs had pancreatic cancer with a 5 year survival rate of 10%
Steve Jobs has a neuro-endocrine tumor that was diagnosis before metastasis occured. This had a 5-year survival rate of 93% at the time of his diagnosis.
Removal of the tumour would have been a relatively routine and low risk surgery, which would have vastly increased his chance of survival, but he waited nine months to pursue treatment, trying to cure it himself with veganism and acupuncture.
he already beat the odds.
He could be alive today if he'd listened to his doctors and family.
