Ok, before I go any further with this story, let me just say that it’s from the National Enquierer. They’re not the most reliable source. I’m absolutely praying that this is one of those times that they’re just making things up. They are saying that Patrick Swayze has pancreatic cancer and it has spread to other organs. Doctors have given him about 5 more weeks after the chemotherapy failed to shrink the tumor as much as they thought it would.
“He was told he could have two more treatments, but his cancer was not responding. In short – they held out little hope for a cure.”
If this is real, my heart goes out to him and his family.
*Update: TMZ has talked to Patrick’s rep who says,
“Actor Patrick Swayze has been diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and is currently undergoing treatment. Patrick’s physician Dr. George Fisher states, ‘Patrick has a very limited amount of disease and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far. All of the reports stating the timeframe of his prognosis and his physical side effects are absolutely untrue. We are considerably more optimistic.’ Patrick is continuing his normal schedule during this time, which includes working on upcoming projects. The outpouring of support and concern he has already received from the public is deeply appreciated by Patrick and his family.”
Thanks Debby!

My prayers goes to him and his family.
I wish everyone would just leave this guy alone–he is fighting the biggest fight of his life and he needs hope and positive support–stop trying to take that away from him. Put yourself in his shoes for a moment. Patrick you can beat this–so do it!!!!

If this is true, my heart goes out to Patrick and his family..I hope its just another NE lie.
Dirty Dancing is my all time favorite movie….my prayers are with him and his family..Cancer is an awful disease and my heart goes out to him and his entire family
I dont think its true. Perez is reporting that a source close to him just released:
However, a very good source just told us the following:
"Patrick has been at rehearsals for a new cheer leading movie at century city studio frequently lately, and he definitely does not look like he has 5 more weeks of life left…im not sure of his medical condition(s), but if he is gravely ill, he is hiding it very well."
It is on Fox News. So sad. I love him.!
Poor guy. I really like him. : (
