Hopefully he will rebound.
One being active doesn't prove or disprove the article.

Swayze who had the same cancer if I remember, was active up until the day before he died.
My father-in-law was given a few weeks to live with lung cancer and through pain and discomfort went into his company every day and on the morning of his passing, was showering before getting dressed. As he stepped out to dry himself, he was felled by a major heart attack, brought on by the illness. Many who die of cancer dont die of the actual disease itself but of the organs shutting down in their body. At least that is my understanding of it.

It's a bit refreshing to read that he'll be meeting with some of the other greats and the US pres tomorrow.

http://www.appleinsider.com/articles..._thursday.html

To bad 'the mayor' has to leave SF so early and miss out on any invitation.

But other than the other and often disgusting tabloid type gossip which I avoid, ie: any top news = $$$, some of the 'qualified' info doesn't sound too promising.

And what member here actually knows when their day will actually come?? Not if but when seems to ring a bell... All a Nature call.

I've lost quite a few friends and family to cancer and wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. If he really is in his last days I hope it's sooner rather than later and that he goes as peacefully as possible.

I agree. This is why I participate in Cops for Cancer and the Terry Fox Run every chance I get.

Life goes on though......I hope that Steve does not have Cancer again though.

Some people are workaholics until their last day - his meeting doesn't say that much.

I wonder is Apple has any young geniuses waiting in the wings that can have even half the vision Steve Jobs had. Hopefully they can find two of those guys

Charles Schultz is said to have died while working at his drawing table.

That said, I'm surprised that anyone would consider an article from The National Enquirer as anything but tabloid fodder. These guys are the (de)evolutionary step between TMZ and The Weekly World News.

The doctors who are being quoted in this aren't qualified to diagnose anyone's cancer in an office visit, let alone from a photo. For a little sanity, see this link:

Not all doctors are created equal

He also this week began demolition of a home that he has owned since 1985, with plans of building a new one. Either his builders are super quick or Steve is planning to be around for a while.
