Time2 1'31''
Jobs regretted that he didn't follow doctor's recommendation about the diet and that he delayed operation.

Time3 2'07''
The tumor Jobs contracted has more survival rate,but his instinct for defiant iconoclasm and his insistence on unconventional approaches caused his death

Time4 1'34''
More details : This type of tumor has two parts: metastatic part and non-function part
Jobs has the metastatic part,which is far less fatal than non-function part and has high level chance of cure, but he didn't treat it seriously

Time5 1'27''
Jobs's islet-cell tumor is curable and if treated on time, it can be removed without harming organs
If his tumor is familial,, it is possible to recontract with this tumor
Jobs rejected the modern diagnosis method

Time6 1'34''
If his rumor can be treated seriously at early stage, Jobs possibly survived from it.
Radiotherapy with special isotopes helps to deal with the tumor
Condition of metastatic has high curable chance before liver transplant.

Obstacle: 3'14''
A said the report is his personal view:
Jobs doomed himself with alternative medicine.
His condition has high curable rate at early stage, even though after nine months, it also has chance to cure
It is a good lesson for patients in Jobs's experience: Do not waste time and get treated as soon as possible

Time 2 1:39
Steve Jobs regretted taking alternative therapy to deal with his tumor. He could have survived if he gets an

operation ealier.


Time 3  3:26
To understand his prognosis, it is necessary to know the type of his tumor.
First, he get a neuroendocrine tumor which is considered to be outside the 95 percent fatality rate.
Second, Job's tumor appeared to be functional and not have metastasized.
Although the tumor he gets is not very vicious, the inappropriate therapy he chosed resuts in the bad

situation.



Time 4 3：31

Amri 's explanation of the particular type of Jobs'neuroendoctrine tumor ：

Functional ，Not metastatic（the less differentiate, the more reckless, insulinoma,pancreas,





Time 5 1:56

Amri answers some questions about this diseases.
1 This cancer is usually curable when caught early.
And the tumor can be resect without needing to remove the pancreas.
The chances of it coming back as a recurrence from the original tumor are small.
But modern medicine seems not have chemotherapy or radiation to use against islet cells.


Time 6 4：03

This paragraph introduces different therapies of tumor.

1, if the tumor is small enough ,take out the tumor locally without any sideeffect
2, Chemo doesn't always wrok , if it is in pancreas FDA is better. Get worser, use Chemo.
3, Radiotherapy helps to cure metastatic tumor .
4, Partial resection instead of removing the whole thing

The last liver transplant.



Obstacle 6:38

Of all the people who suffered on the dark side of his iconoclastic decisionmaking, it was Jobs himself who appears to have paid the biggest price.

At first, the tumor the Jobs get is rather mild, and it can be removed earlily without any side effect.But he chose the alternative therapy and lost the best time to have an operation.

Time 2: 2:12.60
Jobs regretted using the alternative ways to treat his cancer. If he did not delay the treatment at least 9 months, the early death may not happen.

Time 3: 2:17.38
Jobs' tumor is unlike the majority type and his own unconventional appoaches on the cancer did not serve him as the Apple's customers. He want the other people know that.

Time 4: 3:12.27
The survival rate of the cancer is 5 years, which is low. There are two reasons why it does not apply to Jobs. The metastatic part, Jobs' did not spread until 2008.The nonfunctional part, Jobs did not have the nonfunctional one, which is more deadly than the functional ones.Yet Jobs still did not make the right choices.

Time 5: 2:14.23
There are two questions on the cancer of Jobs.
1. Can Jobs' cancer be cured, if he notice and treat it earlier?Yes, the type of his is curable but he did not treated it earlier.
2. Jobs gave up chemo, if he did not ,would he avoid the early death ?The chemo and the choice only depend on his own subtype and case.

Time 6: 2:51.83
If Jobs had a well-differentiated insulinoma, there are more chances that he can be cured. Chemo does not always work. And transplant of liver may work but there are also risks.

Time 7: 5:08.94
Jobs wasted time on the  treatment of his cancer by delaying the conventional medicine use and believing the alternative ways may work. The case tells us that do not waste time and do not be headstrong on the cure of the cancer, or you may pay the huge price just like Jobs.

Obstacle:5:50
Jobs's death is highly related to his delay and rejectcion of conventional cancer treatment.
The cancer that Job had got was a very controllable, milde one, which usually was not that fatal. However, Job failed to prevent the cancer to take away his life gradually by neither taking conventional treat nor removing the cancer via a surgery on early stage.

Speaker:
Steve Jobs has a very special character. He thinks himself to be different from others. He is a trouble maker, a crazzy buddy but also a genius. He loves to yell at and argue with co-workers, but he also knows the engineers are important. He distains authority but he is such a kind of authoritarian. Steve Jobs was abandoned by his own company because of his authoritarianism. But the miserable experiences didn't make him frustrated and stopped to go foward, he established a movie animation company which attracted the Apple company's attention. Jobs finally returned to Apple and took over the company and his assumption of duty brings the resplendent future to Apple. Jobs is really a person who is so different from any other leaders and whose bussines form and pursuit of art and aesthetics push the history and change the world.

Time 2: 1:15
Although a lot of his friends and relatives told him to have a operation rather than an alternative medicine, Steve Jobs still insisted on his idea. Some experts said that the tumor found in his body was relatively mild and if detected early for 9 months, Steve Jobs would have survived. Steve Jobs delayed the operation because he didn’t want his body to be opened.
Time 3: 1:45
The tumor found in Jobs is a kind of cancer easier to be treated and the situation of the tumor is relatively safe and easily to be survived. But the delay of 9-month treatment result in the spread of the tumor.
Time 4: 2:10
Several reasons given by Amri shows that the tumor Jobs had is especially one of the most common and best treatable type.
Time 5: 1:15
Someone debated over Amri’s theory that Jobs didn’t have a familial disease and he would suffer a recurrence.
Time 6: 1:54
Surgery is by far the best treatment if the tumor is small and doesn’t spread. After the surgery, the patient will less probably to suffer a recurrence. But chemical theory and radioactive theory are not good choices for the patients.

Obstacle: 4:40
Steve Jobs suffered a kind of tumor which is thought to be a wild tumor and easy to be treated. Amri said that 95% of her patients who suffered the tumor recovered from the disease only if they received surgery. But Steve Jobs didn’t receive any physical surgery or conventional treatments and even didn’t listen to the doctor’s recommendations but chose the alternative medicine. Steve’s bad choice led to his death and his experiences give lesson to every patients that don’t waste time by delaying medically recommended treatment.
