To be blunt, from what I know Tony Snow's condition is terminal. He can't get a liver transplant because the immunosuppressants he would have to take would allow the cancer to spread through out his body.

Liver Cancer like he has is pretty fatal. Somebody with a medical degree and more current knowledge correct me if I am wrong... but I think this is a much worse scenario than Elizabeth Edwards has, which is pretty damned bleak itself.

When my friend's spread from her breast to her liver and lungs, the doctor said it was incurable, but treatable (much like Mrs. Edwards' case). It depends on how much cancer is in the liver.
