The best doctor is solid faith in Jesus Christ. He seems to have missed it all the way to the end.

Poor guy.

“Don’t educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be happy.”

Having children can be a joy beyond expression.

My understanding is that this is a hoax email. Steve Jobs never wrote this stuff.

If he had listened to his doctors…he would be alive today.

His pancreatic cancer was on the bottom of the pancreas, it hadn’t spread, and was not involved with his lymph nodes. A surgery and ten shitty rounds of chemo and his prognosis for 72 months + was about 70%. If you ever get PC, you WANT the one jobs had.

Instead, he wanted to go “the natural” route. Of course, cancer “naturally” spreads.

My Dad always used to say “I’ve never seen a Brinks truck follow a hearse to the grave”.

Therefore, I hope you realize, when you have mates, buddies and old friends, brothers and sisters, who you chat with, laugh with, talk with, have sing songs with, talk about north-south-east-west or heaven and earth, that is true happiness!

When you get Alzheimer's and those events are wiped from your memory what value did any of it really have. It really isn't about you. Love your neighbor as yourself is a better prescription. It takes away the self-centered act of collecting memories into a responsibility to try to make your small corner of the world a better place for anybody that lives around you.

Don't educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be happy.

Nice fairy tale but with the median home price at over $400k, if you can do it, teach them to be rich. That will be their only route to having a family with a decent chance of what used to be called a normal life.

For those that say "money can't buy friends", I leave you with this fact: A Golden Retriever is the best friend that money can buy.

Jobs did not have to die. I had the exact kind of cancer he did. I elected to have surgery, and he didn’t.
