Steve Jobs was smart. Probably a genius. And rich. Super rich. Steve Jobs was also unconventional. And when he was diagnosed with neuroendocrine cancer in his pancreas, his unconventional side won the day. For nine months, he opted not to treat his cancer with surgery - the conventional way - and instead tried a vegan diet, acupuncture, herbal remedies and other treatments that he found online.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 Forwarded this email?

By the time Jobs decided to have the cancer surgically removed, it had spread to the liver. A liver transplant triggered more health problems. Jobs died at age 56. He lived for eight years after diagnosis. The marketing mastermind behind Apple likely did not have to die so young. Neuroendocrine cancer in the pancreas IS NOT the same thing as pancreatic cancer. It is slow growing and can often be treated successfully by surgery if it has not metastasized.  I have a newfound interest in neuroendocrine cancer because Douglas, my ex and now housemate, recently had a tiny neuroendocrine tumor removed where the pancreatic and bile ducts meet. It did not spread, but he might have a tiny new primary tumor  where the small intestine meets the large intestine.  A full body PET scan didn’t show any other area of concern. Douglas’s neuroendocrine tumor was discovered incidentally, aka fortuitously. That’s a very good thing. But making the discovery wasn’t a seamless process.  If you’re ever in a medical drama, please remember these three pieces of advice…... Subscribe to Geri’s Substack to read the rest.
