Is Patrick Swayze Battling Pancreatic Cancer?

[Cindycooks]

Pancreatic Cancer. There are reports that say he is near death and others that say he is fighting it. I know usually with this type of cancer, it does not look good. So sad - I love Dirty Dancing!

Oh, no, that's awful! He was my 80's Dreamboat! My prayers are with him.

He was just on Oprah not too long ago. Wow, that cancer does work fast if the story is true. So sad! Dirty Dancing was a favorit of mine, too. My mom wouldn't let me see the movie because of the "theme". I went to see it at least 5 times at the $1 theatre when I was 14 or 15 years old.

According to his doctor, it's not as bad as some of these stories have been.

My medical procedures teacher has said in the past that once you have something wrong like that with your pancreas, there's not really any going back...not good.

Dirty Dancing is my all time fav...

My grandpa lived almost a yr with pancreatic cancer but they had to take out 1/2 his stomach and a lot of intestines it was horrible watching him pass away. The dr.s said people dont live long at all with that type of cancer

I prefer Roadhouse! (And my DH likes it too, so we watch it quite often!) That's so sad.

I am so sad....I love the scene in DD where he and Baby are learning to dance and you see his back...the way those muscles move were too hot! I pray that whatever happens, he isn't in pain and doesn't suffer.

One more thing.....can you believe that hunk is 55????

I was just coming on here to post this.

It is sad. Hopefully, he will continue to respond to treatment.

There is a lady in my church with pancrease cancer and they gave her 6 months to live. She is responding wonderful to treatment and her counts are reduced from over 2000 to around 200 now. God has performed a miracle for her and we all continue to pray He will continue to heal her! It is amazing what He is doing and she gives all the glory to Him!:angel:

They have been playing Roadhouse all week. Russell always stop on the scene where he is wokring out and boxing in his sweatpants for me b/c he knows I love to DROOL over him!! Then he turns it before I get upset when Sam Elliott gets killed.

Last week Dirty Dancing was on a lot.

Those are my two fav shows of all time!
