Exocrine pancreatic cancer is rarely curable and has an overall survival (OS) rate of less than 6%.
The highest cure rate occurs if the tumor is truly localized to the pancreas; however, this stage of disease accounts for less than 20% of cases. For patients with localized disease and small cancers (

The 1- and 5-year relative survival rates for persons
with colorectal cancer are 84% and 64%, respectively. Survival
continues to decline to 58% at 10 years after diagnosis. When
colorectal cancers are detected at an early, localized stage, the
5-year survival is 90%; however, only 39% of colorectal cancers
are diagnosed at this stage, in part due to the underuse of screening.
If the cancer has spread regionally to involve nearby organs
or lymph nodes at the time of diagnosis, the 5-year survival
drops to 70%. If the disease has spread to distant organs, the
5-year survival is 12%.

不是比较两种癌症,是比较两种态度。
两人都对替代疗法有一定程度的信任和欣赏,但里根将正规治疗放在首位;而乔布斯则反过来。
说得对。但如果乔布斯发现胰腺癌时还没有转移,立刻就手术,治愈的机会还是有的。

大唐三藏 义净译
如是我闻。一时,薄伽梵在王舍大城,竹林园中,与大比丘众五百人俱。时有众多比丘,身患痔病,形体羸(lei2)瘦,痛苦萦(ying2)缠,于日夜中,极受忧恼。时具寿阿难陀,见是事已,诣世尊所,顶礼双足,在一面立,白佛言:世尊!今王舍城,多有比丘,身患痔病,形体羸瘦,痛苦萦缠,于日夜中,极受忧恼,世尊!此诸病苦,云何救疗?
尔时,佛告阿难陀:汝可听此疗痔病经,读诵受持,系心勿忘。亦于他人,广为宣说,此诸痔病,悉得除尔。所谓风痔、热痔、阴痔、三合痔、血痔、腹中痔、鼻内痔、齿痔、舌痔、眼痔、耳痔、顶痔、手足痔、脊背痔、粪门痔,遍身支节所生诸痔、如是痔瘘、悉皆干燥,堕落消灭,必瘥(chai4)无疑。皆应诵持如是神咒。即说咒曰:
怛姪他。 頞兰帝。 頞蓝谜,
da zhi ta 。e4 lan2 di4。e4 lan2 mi2
室利鞞。室里室里。
shi2 li4 pi2。shi2 li3 shi2 li3
磨羯失质。三婆跋睹。莎诃。
mo jie2 shi zhi4。san po2 ba2 du3。suo he
阿难陀!於此北方,有大雪山王,中有大婆罗树,名曰难胜,有三种华:一者初生、二者圆满、三者干枯。犹如彼华干燥落时,我诸比丘所患痔病,亦复如是。勿复血出,亦无脓流,永除苦痛,悉皆平复,即令干燥。又复,若常诵此经者,得宿命住智,能忆过去七生之事,咒法成就,莎诃。又说咒曰:
怛姪他。苫谜苫谜。捨苫谜。
da zhi ta 。shan mi shan mi。she shan mi。
捨末泥。捨苫泥。莎诃。
she mo ni。she shan ni。suo he。
佛说是经已,时具寿阿难陀,及诸大众,皆大欢喜,信受奉行。
如果里根选择了不手术而一开始就采用苦杏仁来治疗,他也许就无需承受老年痴呆的折磨了,夫人南希也可以早点解脱。
如果乔布斯一开始就手术,他可能就要目睹苹果的衰落,这可能比死了还痛苦。他的夫人也就没有机会与壮男约会了。
