http://www.transworldnews.com/NewsStory.aspx?id=39197&cat=2 Patrick Swayze, best known for his role in Dirty Dancing, has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and told that he has just five weeks to live. Swayze, 55, has been sick with the disease since he was diagnosed in late January with pancreatic cancer. The cancer has since spread to other organs and now the actor/dancer is dying. For the past month, Swayze has been traveling to Stanford University’s prestigious cancer center in Palo Alto for radical chemotherapy, but his doctors are no longer optimistic that the treatments will be successful, according to the National Enquirer. Swayze received three treatments of chemotherapy, causing the tumor to shrink, but less than his doctors had hoped for. He was then told that he should prepare for the end. Ghost was the greatest movie of its time. R.I.P Patty
ive heard of more people dying than surviving pancreatic cancer...i was suprised by the story though...
The story I read was that he has a small amount of cancer, and is doing well...the story also said that there were reports of him dying that were not true... http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/080305/entertainment/swayze_cancer So Ganja, tell your wife to buck up, her Dirty Dancing fantasy isn't over yet..
Pancreatic cancer is a difficult illness. http://www.cancerhelp.org.uk/help/default.asp?page=7519#stage "Of all those people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, about 10 to 15 in every 100 people (10 to 15%) are alive 1 year later. Sadly, only about 3 out of every 100 people diagnosed (3%) live for at least 5 years after diagnosis. At 10 years after diagnosis the figures are almost the same as those at 5 years. About 2 in every 100 people (2 %) live for at least 10 years." .
Thats exactly why she loves him. I personally HATE that movie and would love to destroy every single copy we own, which is like 4 or 5. Jesus, why the hell do you need that many copies of a single movies. Shit, I only have one copy of all my porn vids....
I heard about it on the radio right after I got off the phone with my Dad... who told me he has lung cancer
I think swayze died of a broken heart. Bubbles stole the swayze express, and Bach will be the new model train champion by default.
