Too bad. Great mind. He is in my prayers.
That said, methinks Monday might be a bad day for my Apple stock.

If he had the transplant two months ago, it seems to be successful. If anything, it may help Apple stock.

Hepatitis? Alcohol?Toxicity to anti-cancer medications or metastasized cancer most likely.

The advantages of having money. Not everybody could buy a house and move to another state just to get on a shorter transpant list.

Wonder if Steve Jobs would be alive today if the Government ran health care...

It's the new Steve Jobs wing of the hospital where he got his transplant that will open up in a few years that represents what the little guy typically can't do. :-)

Just think.....
When ObamaCare comes online, there will be enough livers, hearts, etc for EVERYONE!
Having someone else pay for things, solves everything.

Wanted to get it in before ObamaCare took effect.
Otherwise that would've been another Jobs lost.
Heh, heh.
Morbid, I know, but I couldn't resist.

Not everybody could buy a house and move to another state just to get on a shorter transpant list.Why not? Furthermore, we don't know whether he ultimately received the transplant from a live donor.

That will happen when we're able to quickly and practically clone organs from our own bodies using our own stem cells. It's a long way off already, and socialized medicine will push it even further off.

Lots of organs available if you belong to the party and don’t mind receiving organs from the political prisoners.

From my fingers to God’s eyes...: The stock has been fine for the past five years. It will be fine five years from now. The day to day price is secondary. I sincerely hope this guys makes it through. Huge transplants are horrible things to endure.

It’s a national list and local medical transplant staffs determine who gets placed on the list. Psych profiles, life style, family support and medical compliance are important placement factors.
However, there is only one liver for every four people on the list. Once placed, the criteria for transplant is degree of sickness. The system may be gamed, but IMHO (having worked in liver transplant), many of the transplant profesionals are very concerned about ethics and fairness.
To: Extremely Extreme Extremist
Thank god there's an app to check for liver failure.
