Many Questions Over Apple CEO’s Disease
Jobs, in an open letter signed "Steve," said earlier this week he had already begun treatment for the condition, that he would remain on as Apple CEO during his recovery, that he expected to be noticeably improved in a matter of months.
"As many of you know, I have been losing weight throughout 2008. The reason has been a mystery to me and my doctors. A few weeks ago, I decided that getting to the root cause of this and reversing it needed to become my #1 priority.
Fortunately, after further testing, my doctors think they have found the cause - a hormone imbalance that has been "robbing" me of the proteins my body needs to be healthy. Sophisticated blood tests have confirmed this diagnosis.
The remedy for this nutritional problem is relatively simple and straightforward, and I've already begun treatment. But, just like I didn't lose this much weight and body mass in a week or a month, my doctors expect it will take me until late this Spring to regain it. I will continue as Apple's CEO during my recovery."
What Job talks about is not the usual kind of pancreatic cancer that arises from the pancreas cells that churn out digestive enzymes. Those more typical cancers all too often kill rapidly.
