Steve Jobs Recovering From a Liver Transplant, Still Returning End of MonthThe GOD of all Apple consumers, real Apple consumers, is back! The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reports that he had a liver transplant two months ago and is expected to return to work later this month, maybe not full time but he'll be back.
And it's at this point, without any information to back that thing up, it says that Jobs cancer had spread to his liver, just a comment from a doctor, William Hawkins, that "most patients are going to have this disease spread over the course of their lives". But he did not say, specifically, liver. Maybe he was a heavy drinker, that could explain all his calmness in the keynote presentations. (just kidding Steve, I'm a fan)
The WSJ also posted that getting a liver transplant to treat the kind of tumor that Jobs has is "controversial because they are scarce and the surgery's efficacy as a cure hasn't been proved". But this has no background. All I know is that the WSJ is saying Jobs got a transplant. PERIOD.
While he was absent, he still remained involved in all of Apple's key aspects and product plans from home. He has also been seen at Apple's headquarters, according to people who have seen him there.
Regardless of his health, when Steve Jobs gets back to work, I think everyone should welcome him back.
P.S. yes I do read some parts of the WSJ.
