Tim Cook offered part of the liver to Steve Jobs

Apple's current CEO, Tim Cook, offered part of his liver to a dying Steve Jobs. This is described in the book, published in the second half of March.

The book “Becoming Steve Jobs,” excerpts from which are published on the Internet, sheds light on life inside Apple, which has become one of the world leaders in the world of high technology.

The book also describes the relationship between Tim Cook and Steve Jobs.

From it follows, in particular, that Jobs with anger rejected Cook’s offer to give him the tissue of his liver.

In 2004, Steve Jobs announced that he was suffering from pancreatic cancer, and by 2009, the head of Apple was already so sick that he couldn’t come to the office and wait for a donor organ transplant.

Cook visited him regularly at home and after one of these visits, according to excerpts from the book, he “left the house so upset that he took a blood test himself.”

Rare blood type

Cook found that, like Jobs, he had a rare blood type, and suggested that it was one and the same group.

According to the book, he passed a series of tests and found out that the transplantation of his liver to Jobs is possible.

But when he shared this news with Steve Jobs himself, the dying Apple boss reacted very angrily.

“He answered “no,” before he snapped, I didn’t even have time to say anything,” says Tim Cook in the book.

“He said, ‘I’ll never let you do that. Never,” Cook recalls.

“Steve only yelled at me about four or five times in the 13 years I knew him, and this was one of those times,” Tim Cook added.

Was there a TV?

Steve Jobs eventually transplanted his liver, the operation took place in March 2009.

He resigned as head of Apple in August 2011 of the year and died in October of the same year at the age of 56.

The book also tells how Jobs was thinking about buying a Yahoo search engine to ensure Apple’s presence in this business.

Some chapters of this book contradict Jobs’s earlier biography written by Walter Isaacson. That book mentions that Jobs was thinking about creating a new TV.

However, the book Becoming Steve Jobs claims that the Apple founder had little interest in television.

In the book, he tells designer Joni Eve: “I just don’t like television. Apple will never make TVs again."
