Interesting someone brought up Steve Jobs. The word in the medical community is that he initially ignored western medical advice regarding his tumor and decided to try naturopathic treatments....until it metastased to his liver a couple years later. At this point the man somehow obtained THREE liver transplants over his remaining life to hold off known metastastic disease and delay the inevitable. How a man of considerable wealth obtained so many hepatic transplants while people with curable liver ailments on a transplant wait list die, should spawn a few questions.
