Steve Jobs, the guru of Apple is recovering very well, his doctor says.
The news about the health of Steve Jobs, who underwent a liver transplant about two months ago, are more reassuring - so much so that the NYSE greeted the news with cheer and by a higher title, which has advanced Nasdaq.
The prognosis is "excellent," on June 23rd a doctor from the Methodist University Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee was quoted by AP. "Steve Jobs is recovering well," said the doctor did not communicate the date of the transaction on behalf of privacy.
As expected and announced, the Apple boss who co-founded the company in 1976 should return to the orders of society in the next few days, at the end of June. Steve Jobs has already resumed the service, having participated in the communication marking the sale of the millionth iPhone 3G S.
We know a bit more about the history of his state of health:
"It was the patient most seriously ill of the waiting list when a donor organ became available," explained the surgeon of the hospital.
Remember, he was operated for cancer of the pancreas in 2004. Last January, very thin Steve Jobs announced that he would withdraw for several months, at least until the end of June 2009, to solve problems related to "the hormonal deficiencies." However, already then the rumor of an organ transplant was circulated.
This story with Steve Jobs shows money can buy a lot of things. USA today runs an article point how "Jobs' liver transplant shows money can make a difference." There has also been criticism about Apple's silence about Steve Jobs' health and liver transplant. David Sarno in Los Angeles Times writes that "firms aren't required to disclose medical details about executives, lawyers say. But they are required to divulge 'material' information investors should know before buying or selling stock."
