He always looks so healthy and vibrant ( sp?) ... why?? Dammit I REPEAT http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/h...280533.stm American actor Patrick Swayze has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, his agent has confirmed. However, his doctor said reports that the Dirty Dancing star had only five weeks to live were "absolutely untrue". The 55-year-old is currently undergoing treatment and is continuing with his filming schedule. Swayze, who also starred in the hit film Ghost, was diagnosed with cancer more than a month ago, the New York Post reported on its website. His doctor George Fisher said in a statement: "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." They I'll say a prayer for him. This is better news. | |

Also, he was fabulous in one of my favorite movies of all time: "To Wong Foo: Thanks for everything, Julie Newmar" | |

He's probably doing much better than we know... It was the lead story on ET. Yeah... I guess so. I'd prefer waiting until a more notable source reports it... but in this case, NE got the lead story, but still blew it up to sell papers. According to his doctor the whole "five weeks to live" comment is completely untrue. In any case, Get well Mr. Swayze, I appreciate your work, and hopefully you will beat this. |

Moderator | They're saying on the radio that the 5 weeks thing is just a rumour.

I came across an article from People magazine addressing the issue. It also says that the tabloids may have scretched the truth a bit.
http://www.people.com/peo...00,00.html Edit: Patrick Swayze, who starred in Dirty Dancing and Ghost, has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, his doctor says.
"Patrick has a very limited amount of disease and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far," Dr. George Fisher says in a statement. "All of the reports stating the time frame of his prognosis and his physical side effects are absolutely untrue. We are considerably more optimistic." The actor's rep adds: "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." Swayze, 55, started his career as a dancer before turning to acting. His breakout role was as a Catskills dance instructor opposite Jennifer Grey in 1987's sleeper hit Dirty Dancing. He also starred opposite Demi Moore in the 1990 blockbuster Ghost. On Broadway in the '70s he played the lead role of Danny Zucco in Grease – he returned to the New York stage in December 2003, for a brief stint in the revival of Chicago – before making his movie debut in 1979's Skatetown, U.S.A. Among his other screen roles were 2001's Donnie Darko and 1995's To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar, which he played in fabulous drag. And while Swayze has been happily married to the same woman, Lisa Niemi, since 1975, only last month Scarlett Johansson said quite seriously during her Hasty Pudding roast at Harvard that the man to whom she'd most like to be linked with romantically is, "Probably Patrick Swayze. My dream come true." Swayze's diagnosis was initially reported by the National Enquirer and New York Post, which both characterized the cancer as being more severe than was described by Swayze's doctor. This place jumps the gun a little much sometimes... this is good news, but it doesn't mean that Patrick Swayze can't use a few extra prayers. :pray [Edited 3/6/08 10:37am] had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong.

I'm watching Dirty Dancing right now like this Now they're showing the "Hungry Eyes" montage when him and Baby are practicing and he ain't got no shirt on. And I'ma go on and say this, I know it's not PC, but DAMN that was a foine white boy!!! I mean his muscle definition was crazy! [Edited 3/6/08 11:33am] | |
