One of the best and inspirational persons in the world, Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple and Pixar Animation, was once suffering from Pancreatic cancer, which was cured when detected, but latest rumors were all spread about the reoccurence of the cancer, but it was faded out by a letter from Steve Jobs itself. But this brought a new fact into the world that spread all around – Steve Jobs is suffering from some hormonal imbalance, which is making him to lose weight and he looks very much thin and weak.

All the proteins are being absorbed and so the body is getting thinner and weight is being lost. And all this is the reason for Steve Jobs not giving the final keynote in the Macworld. It was a shock for all the partners and investors, who heard this news about the ill health conditions of Steve.

The healthnote at Apple website says:

For the first time in a decade, I’m getting to spend the holiday season with my family, rather than intensely preparing for a Macworld keynote.

As many of you know, I have been losing weight throughout 2008. The reason has been a mystery to me and my doctors. A few weeks ago, I decided that getting to the root cause of this and reversing it needed to become my #1 priority.

Fortunately, after further testing, my doctors think they have found the cause—a hormone imbalance that has been “robbing” me of the proteins my body needs to be healthy. Sophisticated blood tests have confirmed this diagnosis.
The remedy for this nutritional problem is relatively simple and straightforward, and I’ve already begun treatment. But, just like I didn’t lose this much weight and body mass in a week or a month, my doctors expect it will take me until late this Spring to regain it. I will continue as Apple’s CEO during my recovery.

Wishing Steve a speedy recovery. He’s been the most inspiring person for me and many others. You would be really inspired if you read his life history(Being adopted, then developed Macintosh and fired from Apple company, and coming back through “Next” company, and again reaching to his present position with talent and hard work.)
