Original Post:
Earlier this week when Apple CEO Steve Jobs tendered his resignation letter to the board of directors at Apple he said the day had come where he could no longer do his job.
Jobs has been on a “Medical” leave since January and has not been seen or photographed in public for the last six months.
And now we know why.

Today, photos of an emaciated Steve Jobs surfaced that unfortunately tell his story of pancreatic cancer and the resulting treatments.
The photos are shocking and show just how far along Steve’s illness has progressed.
Believe me, I have been around many terminal patients and when they get to this stage it is just a matter of time before they pass away.
That will be the next Steve Jobs headline.
So sad.
I suspect with Steve’s high IQ and great wisdom there must also be a healthy dose of pragmatism as well.
We really debated long and hard before writing this story and publishing these pictures. But the Bible says God gives us the sick to humble the healthy, and He gives us the poor to humble the rich.
Somehow, we pray that whatever message this post can send will be sent - and you will hear it in your own way, for your own needs.
God speed Steve Jobs.
You changed the World and that’s more than I can say I’ve done…

Steve Jobs Resigns From Apple - The End of an Era
An iconic business leader that carved his company into the culture of not only America – but the World, is stepping down.
Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs has just announced his resignation from the company.
Jobs, who was an instrumental figure, along with Bill Gates and Microsoft, during the early days of personal computers, has navigated Apple through the development of the original Macintosh computer all the way to the now ubiquitous iPhone.
Jobs, who has suffered several medical problems including pancreatic cancer, sent a letter to the Board of Directors on Wednesday.
Jobs, who has recently appeared gaunt and clearly showing signs of weight loss, is expected to stay on in some capacity with the company for as long as he is able.

Jobs has recommended to the Board that he be replaced with current Chief Operating Officer Tim Cook.
Apple became a household after it released its now famous “1984” television commercial for the original Macintosh computer in 1984.
Steve Jobs became an instrumental leader in the personal computing industry with the first computer to ever use a mouse for navigation.
His stage presence and presentation skills are legendary with his ability to whip a crowd into a frenzy with his new product announcements.

“I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come. I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.”
