Advocates new organ donor legislation
Apple CEO Steve Jobs voiced his support for California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's plans to pass new organ donor legislation.
During an event introducing a new organ donor registry, Jobs told the
crowd that he almost died waiting for his transplant in 2009. The
charismatic CEO underwent a liver transplant in early 2009 and went on
a lengthy medical leave, promoting months of speculation about his
health and future at Apple.
"I was fortunate. Last year, 400 other Californians died waiting. I
could have died," said Jobs. "I was almost one of the ones who died
waiting for a liver."
Jobs said he is now feeling fine and that he's had "a pretty good last few months."
