Patrick Swayze Diagnosed with Cancer
In heartbreaking news, PageSix.com is reporting that actor Patrick Swayze has been diagnosed with cancer. The movie stars' publicist confirmed to the website that Patrick is suffering from pancreatic cancer, which he was diagnosed with in early January.
"Actor Patrick Swayze has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and is currently undergoing treatment," his rep said in a statement. "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."
The average life expectancy for the disease is six to nine months, with only 4 percent of patients living more than five years.
I can't tell you how sad I am about this news. Patrick has always been one of my favorite actors -- in fact, I had just singled out Dirty Dancing's Johnny Castle in our Favorite Romantic Movie Characters slide show. Let's hope there are many more memorable roles to come.
Let's all pray that Patrick beats the odds. Send your good thoughts!

I was shocked to learn about this. There hasn't been much about him lately, and I thought maybe something was wrong. My prayers are with him and his family.
I hope he beats this..... God Bless him......
This is such sad news. I hope he beats this.
I am so sad. He is one of my favorites. My prayers are with him and his family.
Loved him in road house and ghosts, big fan of his, very entertaining. Pray it hasn't already spread to the rest of his body, he deserves better than that. Will definitely keep him in my prayers.
Please Beat This Patrick - May God Bless You during this most trying time!!!!
Luv To You...Laurie :-)
He's cool. I saw many hot guys on richkiss.com. Also I saw his profile there. He's sincere, sexy and honest there since he's a certified millionaire there. Of course he's one of the quality men there.
I just love him to bits and send Patrick and his family LOVE and LIGHT.
I´m so sad.I love him, he is very good actor and person.I hope he will be in good health as soon as possible.My prayers are with him and his family.
"SUCKS" for you "Patrick." Get "well" soon.
I love patrick. he is one of my favorites. I find it appalling that these stupid dating site bloggers have the audacity to post anything about there dumb mingle site on this blog. have some f*^%$#g respect!!
nobody puts patrick in a corner! he'll beat this; he's healthy and has always been in great shape.
Patrick Swayze will be dead in 6 months. I am not trying to be cruel. My husband died from it at age 44, 4 1/2 month after being diagnosed. It is an incredibly vicious cancer. My heart goes out to him and his family. They have a very tough road ahead.
My Mother died from this cancer 15 years ago. She was diagnosed and died 5 1/2 weeks later.
But a friend of ours was diagnosed just 2 years ago, and so far she had beat it. Apparently the Dr.s tried some new type of surgery and it has worked so far.
My prayers and thoughts are with him and his family. This is such horrible news.
It was sad to hear the news about Patrick this morning. I pray that the Lord gives him and his family the strength and comfort to overcome this illness. Keep the faith and believe in Him. May the Lord Bless you and comfort you, Patrick.
It is such sad news to hear of this. I hope he can over come the hurdle of this battle.
God Bless his family give them strength.
I am shocked as he has been one of my Favourite Actors since I saw Dirty Dancing, and he was always Upbeat, It is devasting to hear, and I hope that God will prolong his Life as long as he can, It is all in Gods Hands and my Prayers go out to him and his Family. All we can do is Pray that he wins this Battle.
I am so sad.. he did 2 of my favorite movies, dirty dancing and ghost. I hope he beats this and recovers fully. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family!
I am very sad to hear about this Patrick,I will keep you and your family in my prayers. You will beat this just keep the faith in the lord.

Patrick, I wish you courage and good hope to overcome this unfortunate time in your life. Be strong! And, God Bless You!
I sorry to here this.I hope that he can get the best treatment.He will be in my prayers.

My father was diagnosed with it, and he only lived 2 months after. It is one of the most uncureable cancers out there because detecting it is very difficult. Usually gives symptoms similar to Hepitatis C or some other ailments. Hence it is often missed.
If, and only if, they found it in its very early stages he may get to live a few more years.
I hope he is one of the lucky few.
My God I feel terrible. Patrick stole my heart in the movie Ghost and I have followed all his movies since. I am sending you Patrick and your family lots of (((((Reiki Healing Light)))). Dont give up the fight, be strong and positive and millions of your fans, friends, and family will be praying for you. You are so special....((((Hugs)))))Tina
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.Keep a positive attitude that you can beat this. Hollywood doesn't need to lose another great star and neither do the rest of us!
I don't pray much but my prayers are with him and his family. It is sad news and I hope that his strength sees him and his family through this dark time to better times ahead.
Dirty Dancing is my favourite film ever! I have always adored Patrick, he is a fantastic actor. I have enjoyed many of his films including Road House and Ghost. All of which are all time clasics. Get well soon Patrick! Hope to see you in the near future doing what you do best. Kind Regaurds Rebecca.xxx
I was saddened to hear of this news. I hope that all the medical advancements will give him much more time to make more movies for me to watch and have more time with his family. I have been watching him since Outsiders! He is a great actor and always been a favorite of mine.
my Heart goes out to Patrick and his family You are in my prayers God Bless you and your family I pray you beat this terrible disease God Bless
PATRiCK & HiS FAMiLY ARE iN MY THOUGHTS & PRAYERS.

WE LOVE YOU, PATRiCK!
Hey Patrick,
Kick this cancers ass like Dalton would,
Get well soon.
Hey Patrick,
Kick this cancers ass like Dalton would,
Get well soon.
Keep fighting Patrick.
To anyone who may want to think about 'god' a bit more!!
Who is this 'god' who choses who lives or dies, please everone, get real and stop praying to someone/something that has such cruel power over the living.
So, he/whoever, is also choosing to 'take' all the little chilren, see them dying of starvation and disease, is this the 'god' you pray to?
Why do all the bad people live so long and make everyones life a misery, you know, Hitler, murderers, rapists, child abusers,I think you can think of a few more too?
So, if you pray to your 'god' what will you think if Patrick dies? Wow... I would never believe in an entity that has that power!!!
Learn to question things, without the blind faith you believers hold.
God Bless You Patrick. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.
i pray for him and his family. Mat God be with him in his time of need.
Patrick, we love you and your acting abilities.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you always.
Patrick .... I'm so sorry to hear this news. I have seen all of your movies and consider myself one of your biggest fans! You'll be in my daily prayers that the Lord help you and your family get through this. He will give you and your family the strength and faith you all need .... just believe!! God bless you and your family always.
Stay positive Patrick. Everyone is praying for you and hoping you make a full recovery. God bless xxx
I'm so sad to hear,it makes me as sad as I was watching him in the movie Ghost. I'd LOVED every movie he was in he'll always be my dream idle since I was a young teenager and I still Love him yet today and always, keep fighting and hang on hope, miracles do happen. DEBBIE
sorry to hear the bad new i will be praying for him.
i have always love him as a actor. BE STERNGTH
may god be with you
god bless patrick he is one of my atme favorite.
I'll keep him and he's family in my prayers!
I almost forgot :next of kin: watched it 20 times, still love it. God takes people from this earth when there work is done and he needs them in heaven. He got himself an angle in patrick when his time comes. Hopefully it will be much later.
Its a very very rare thing to survive pancreatic cancer, most people live anywhere from 3-10 months from diagnosis even with chemo, and its one of the most painful cancers besides liver cancer to have.
I hope he truly makes it or if he should succumb he goes very fast as its terrible to watch someone go threw this kind of cancer.
OMG, I really hopes he gets better. This actually scares me bc I had pancreatitis a few years ago, which simply means the pancreas is inflamed. I've never heard of a pancreatic cancer.
it is heart breaking news.
lots of prays are going out , keep faith.
my husband had cancer 2 times in 3 years,and a mone marrow
transplant ,the power of praying does work.
keep stonge, lean on the people who love you, that's what
friends and family are there for.
I wanted to say that I hope that he gets through this and that I am sending a PRAYER to him and his family. Having said that...
Alice. it's called blind faith, as you pointed out, for a reason! You don't have faith with your head, and it doesn't mean that you should need to explain it to anyone else. That pretty much goes for most religions in my book.
Now yeah, like a lot of people on this site I don't agree with Scientology, but I don't go telling people that if that's how they want to worship that they shouldn't do that. I only disagree when someone from a certain religion tries to push it on someone else. Or does something to hurt someone else in the name of religion. I dated a Mormon for years, we had lots of arguments about this.
Now i looked at all of the comments on this blog. NOT A ONE was saying that YOU had to believe in God, and what power that he/she/it might have. They are sending positive energy and well wishing to a man that we obviously all think is pretty awesome (and still cute too! nice pic Tracy!) and is in a moment of crisis. I don't think you should disrupt that flow of energy. It's bad karma.
I have loved Patrick from the time I first saw him. I hope that he beats this and gets well. All my prayers and best wishes, Barbara
Patrick Swayze------My Prayers are with you & your family. Love You!
no such thing as Karma {Aka Eastern Religion BS}
Patrick is such a good man and has a lovely wife. I pray that God throws a miracle their way. They both deserve it. Love to you both.
This is absolutely heart breaking!
I went thru a horrible expierence with my aunt who lost the battle to pancreatic cancer. The only positive thing that came out of this was she didn't suffer long and that was only a positive for her, not our entire family. She was diagnosed 2-3 days before she died. It was absolutely one of the worst expierences of my life.. I really hope the best for Patrick and his entire family. Put a lot of trust in God and try to remain strong.
Good Luck.
My first movie i say patrick in was outsiders ,it was a cool movie.Just want to say may gods angles cover patrick and his family, my prayes are with you god bless. pantelis
I am so sorry to hear about Patrick's illness. I have a friend who is going threw the same thing as well. Keep God 1st place in your heart and believe in miracles. My friend has and is doing pretty well. If anyone can do it Patrick, you can. Prove them all wrong. May the good Lord shine a light upon you and give you the stregth that you need to overcome this sickness. God Bless you and your family. Fight as hard as you can Patrick. America loves you. Joel Osteen's mother beat cancer after they told her that her days were limited. I believe you can do it as well. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. XOXO Va

You are a good and kind man. If anyone can fight the good fight and win... it will be you.
Love and prayers to both you and Lisa, and your family.
Sincerely,
June
We are all so very sad to hear the news. Patrick is one of our fave actors, especially because of his role as "Johnny" on Dirty Dancing. My daughter and husband always play out the roles of "Baby and Johnny" when dirty Dancing is on and they dance like the characters in the movie. It's so sweet. Our prayers go out to Mr Swayze and hope that everything goes well. Best Wishes, the Smith Family
You have always been my favorite hottie! I pray for you and your family. Keep positive and hang on! I have seen every movie you have done. Take care and we will see you soon on the big (or little) screen.
God Bless
Cindi
You have to beat it Patrick! We know you can,do it for all your fans,friends and family.Love to you and your family at this sad time Love Donna XxXxXxXxXxXxX
Good luck to Patrick and his family during this trying time. When I heard the news I was shocked. He seems like a wonderful person and I hope he beats this dreadful disease!

PATRICK
I AM ONE OF YOUR BIGGEST FANS. I LOVED YOU IN DIRTY DANCING AND GHOST. YOU WILL BEAT THIS AND I KNOW YOU WILL. MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. DO NOT STOP FIGHTING THIS. YOU BEAT THIS CANCER DO NOT LET CANCER BEAT YOU. GOD GOT YOUR BACK, HE WON'T LET ANYTHING HAPPEN TO YOU. I HOPE YOU WILL MAKE A FULL AND SPEEDY RECOVERY, GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
I don't think Patrick and his family are reading these messages but if he is.... PEOPLE for God Sake, do you think he needs to hear how your Husband, Dad, Aunt, Mom died of Pancreatic Cancer with in days and months of their diagnosis? My GOD, have some sensitivity and some class. I am a cancer survivor from one of THE most deadly forms of cancer out there and people like you did the same exact thing to me. There was even a girl that I barely knew that told everyone I was going to be dead in 6 months. Here I am 30 years later.... Am I aware of how bad his particular cancer is? You bet I do and you can best believe HE DOES TOO!!!!! If you want to wish him well, do so but please refrain from telling your own tragic death stories.....
i can' imagine the world without my favorite Outsider. i loved that movie and Road House. it is sad that he was diagnosed with cancer and not too long ago Jeff Healy died of cancer. both were in Road house. i loved dirty dancing and ghost as well but, the best acting he ever did in my opinion was in the Outsiders. we love you patrick! never give up hope and get well soon.
God works in mysterious ways. Just continue to keep your faith in God and trust in HIM. My prayers for you and your family. God bless you... stay strong...!!!!
Patrick, you may have cancer... BUT CANCER DO NOT HAVE YOU!!! Stay strong and God bless you!
It's a sorrowful shame that Patrick Swayze is ill with cancer.
I like his movies GHOST and DIRTY DANCIN'.
He was good in THE OUTSIDERS too.
Well I got something to say:
NOBODY PUTS SWAYZE IN A CORNER-ESPECIALLY CANCER.
All my prayers,AND thoughts to Patrick, and his family.
All the best to you Patrick.
It's a sorrowful shame about Patrick Swayze having cancer.
It's was 6 months ago, that Pavarotti had died of it.
And now another brillant entertainer has it.
I love Patrick in GHOST;DIRTY DANCIN' and THE OUTSIDERS.
All my prayers and thoughts going to Patrick and his family and friends.
And one more thing to add:
NOBODY-BUT NOBODY PUTS SWAYZE IN THE CORNER-ESPECIALLY CANCER!
All my best Patrick.
my thoughts and prays are with you and your family patrick. take care.xx
Patrik,be strong.all that you need now is a lot of love and power.My best thoughts for you and your family.Keep the faith!

So sorry to hear this news. I have Patrick in my prayers. And Alice, honey, we don't think God keeps us like puppets. And he doesn't orchestrate the bad things that happen. Get a life , Alice.
Patrick is one of my favourite actors. So sorry to hear the news but I pray you will do very well with treatment. You have my very best wishes for only good health and healing. May the Lord be with you Patrick.
This cancer has been beaten and I believe Ptrick is a survivor.He has so much talent and so much living yet to do .
My prayers will go out to him and his family daily .
My baby brother beat it and I know you can also .Laugh as much as you can use your amazing abilty to leave you body when in pain and you will beat it .Blessing to you .

I am so shocked and saddened to hear about Patrick Swayze. You got it right when you said "beloved". That is exactly how I feel about him. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family.
Hi Patrick, I hope you recover from the cancer, I will be keeping you in my upmost and daily prayers! God knows, I pray that all goes well for you and your health. Sure miss your dancing, esp on dirty dancing from other roles you have played, hope you dont give up, and continue being the person we have all loved and known, god bless u and your family, and may the lord give you strenghth and spirit you need at this time, thank u jesus, amen cover my favorite actor of hi time of need and family love, that is needed, amen :D SStarrine
omg i cannot believe this i will be praying that he overcomes this i absolutely love patrick i am so sorry this is happening to him and his family we all love ya patrick feel well and you are in my familys thoughts and prayers
patrick i love you and so does my kids we got god on our side and we are praying 4 u you will overcome always in my thoughts and prayers feel better
As long as he can still dance, he'll beat it! I've read that it's one of the things that make him happy (Us too!) and psychological control over the disease is key. My first Mother-in-Law lived 10 years with 5 different types of cancer because she was a fighter and didn't want to let it beat her. He's a fighter too and I'm sure his family, friends, and many fans will be there to lend their support. Personally, I love Patrick. He dances beautifully. I send my love and support and hope he gets through the treatment without too much discomfort. Sometimes it's worse than the disease.
I Was Shocked to know that my favorite actor has cancer and I love him to pieces he is my role model and I love him so much I love his movie Dirty Dancing i can recite all the words to the movie because i have watched it so many times Johnny?! Go back to your play pin Baby. I loved him when he did the dancing with jenifer grey those were a cute couple i just wish i could meet him some day. I Really hope he fights through this and turns out to be just fine. Love you Patrick Swayze. (Johnny Castle)
Patrick,
I am so sorry about your Heal;th Condition. I hope you get well soon. I Love the movies you have been in.
God Bless You
As I read about the terrible news, I stopped right at that moment and Prayed for Patrick. My prayers are with you and I know that there is an Almighty God and HE is GREAT. Keep your Faith and remember, if we have faith the size of a mustard seed and beleive when we ask for HIS help, then it shall be done. We walk by FAITH, not by sight.
I love you Patrick, I have enjoyed all of your movies, and I KNOW THERE WILL BE MANY MORE TO COME.
Bren Pettis
patrick, whip it, like you kicked ass in road house. you can't leave us, you've been one of my favorite actors. i loved ghost, and next of kin, we love ya man, don't leave us brother. david eli
Patrick, I pray with all my heart you can beat this horrible and dreadful disease. I lost my sister to pancreatic cancer in Jan of 05. The loss even now is devasting.. There's alot of people out there that loved her and alot that love you. Please stay strong and fight. It can only win if you let it. Stay positive and stay strong and know there are alot praying for you and your family. God Bless... Ilene
For the one that thinks God brings all these terrible things on people. You need to start reading, about Him, and His Love for each one of us. What do you think God felt, as He saw His only begotten Son, die a horrible death, on the cross, for each one of us. All heaven looked away, and cried. Jesus didn't deserve to die, He did it to save us from dying for our own sins. Jesus opened the Gates of Heaven for us, so we would not perish from our own sinfulness. Don't you dare blame God, Our Father for death, and disease, in this world. We brought it on, ourselves. But, Jesus took the sting of death away, so we may spend Eternity, with Him, and His Father, and Holy Spirit. God Bless you, Patrick Swayze, I know you know, if you aren't healed here on earth, you will be healed, in heaven. We have God's Promise on that.
NOBODY PUTS PATRICK IN THE CORNER!!! NOT EVEN THIS!!! Love and prayers to you and your family. You WILL get out of this corner.
I was shocked to hear of this news, I think he is a fantastic actor, I loved him in ghost...I send my thoughts and prayers to him and his family...BEAT IT PATRICK
Patrick I pray with all my heart that god will give you the strengh to over come this dreadful desease. With prayer all things are possible. You can win this thing just pray to God and beleive in your heart and trust your doctors who God is using as the instrument to heal you and you will be heal.
Patrick you have to fight it not just for your fans but because I beleive your family will miss you more than all.
I will keep you and your family in my prayers. I leave you with God blessings
I am so sorry to hear this.Patrick you have so many people who love You and admire You.And we are all praying for You and your family.
I AM A BREAST CANCER AND I DO WISH THE VERY BEST AND A GOOD RECOVERY MY PRAYS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
My dearest friend was diagnosed in the 4th stages in December and was given expermental drugs (TGN Group) and at this point he has the cancer shrinking in his pancreas. kidneys and lungs...he will be the subject of a seminar in Europe this spring....there is hope, Patrick. You have been placed on a worldwide prayer chain, which I truly believe has helped many friends and family survive...find this TGN and be here for us forever...we love you...you are the best.
My prayers go out to Patrick Swayze and his family. I will happily confess I do believe in the Almighty God!!! Yes he allows bad things to happen, but he has a purpose for everything. I don't question him, I just continue to have faith that things will get better. Stay Postive!!!
My heart and prayers go out to Patrick and his family.I have hope he will beat this terrible disease. I was just diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer,I will be undergoing surgery Mar.19th,I am really scared but will remain strong and prayerful to beat this disease. Prayerfully Yours and God Bless you Patrick. Cheryl

I know the dear man nor his family have time to read these so add me to......love ya, loved all your movies.......ALL of and family from Ontario Canada
I am so sorry to hear of your sickness. Patrick is truly one of a kind.Listen up everyone. All of who love and wish the best that Patrick beats this disease, I have an idea. They say that prayer can move mountains. So if we can all pray together on Sunday, the 15th of March at say 12:00 afternoon, and all together at the same time, I believe that it would help Patrick beat this awful disease. Jesus will know how much we all love and care for him and want him to beat this. I am sure it will make a huge difference. I am going to pray for him everyday till then but, I sure hope that everyone will just take a minute out of their lives to pray for God to heal this good person. You are in my prayers Patrick and your beautiful family also. There is power in prayer in numbers.
I said March 15th @ 12:00 because then everyone will have a lot of time to write it down and we can all pray together at once.
Dear Patrick: My prayers ae with you,I will pray every day for you to beat this ,God be with you. Love you , Bernice
It was quite Shocking to know that Dear Patrick is suffering from Cancer. We Pray to Lord Ganesha that he recovers from this & will soon be seen on the Big Screen !!
Very very sad to hear this tragic news, God bless him and help him get better, i luv him, he is my favourite actor.
All the best to you and your family Patrick. My thoughts are with you.
Our Thoughts & Prayers are with you and your Wife Lisa. Our Father died of a Melanoma Of The Brain& Mom had Breast Cancer in 1994 So far she,s cancer free.
I usually don't like to 'dis' out other people's blogs at times like this, as it's a topic of a very serious nature, that's why I sent through my well wishes first.
But regarding Jennifer Johnson's comment - "My prayers go out...I do believe in the Almighty God!...he allows bad things to happen, but he has a purpose for everything"
Can you please tell me what is the purpose for Patrick getting this terrible disease. Or what was God's purpose for allowing my beautiful little baby to be born blind????? Let's get serious here. There can't possibly be a purpose for these horrible things to happen. My baby's an innocent, so it's not like it can be said the purpose is to teach him a lesson, or it's to teach him how to be a stronger or a better person. All it's done is rip mine and my family's heart out and ensured that everyday activities will be harder for my son throughout his life! Purpose??????
Patrick and his family suffering mentally and physically throughout this ordeal....Purpose??????
i hope that mr. swayze makes it .cause he is the man.a dynamic actor who gives everyone a dream to beleive in.good luck.
Our thoughts & prayers are with you and your family, you have been a long time favorite actor of our family so we just want to say stay strong keep your head high ,and don't let nothing or noone bring you down smile 4 me!!!!!!!!Respectfully Yours.
patrick, i feel you can overcome almost anything as long as you keep the faith. my mother just beat cancer plus her leg was amputated twice (the same leg) all in 2007. she also survive 6 surgeries. just hold on and try your best to be strong.and you can beat this. i send my love+prayer.

My prayers go out to & for you. Just know that there are alot of prayers being prayed for you & your family. God bless you!
Use all your positive energy and fight this crap. life always brings us the "rain" but we can overcome, if we allow the "sunshine" of faith beam down. God be with you and stay blessed. my prayers are with you!!
Patrick, I was so saddened hearing this news. My prayers are with you. Never lose Hope. Never. God bless you and your family.
This man, Patrick Swayze, is a celebrity who probably has not ever made the gossip columns in an unflattering vain as some others, not mentioning any names here, do daily. So it does definitely sadden me that he, & not someone who is very hard core, has been struck by this tragedy. I really wish no one ill fortune, but Patrick deserves good fortune, not this. I pray that if there is even the remotest possible medical treatment for a cure or remission that can help him that his doctor does pursue it. I hope God will see fit to save this good man and that Patrick will have the stamina, which I think he has, to fight this dreaded disease that normally does not have a good prognosis. May Patrick's wife remain positive and strong for him and for herself; this does help the patient more than we realize as I speak from experience of having family members who succumbed to cancer. I, and all your fans, Patrick, are praying for you.
PATRICK,HOPE FOR THE BEST.REMMBER CANCER IS A WORD.IT BECOMES A DISEASE IF YOU LET IT. BE POSITIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear Patrick we all love you out here and there is one bigger than all of us. That is out great big wonderful God. I will be praying with you at this time and days to come. You are one of the actors that I have never read bad things about. I love you for that,and I know you have a wonderful family man. Patrick just ask God to let his will be done in your life. Read your bible and I know you will find comfort there. God brought you to this and he will see you through it. God Bless you and I do pray you have many more years with us.... Your friend in Christ, Read John 3:16 and you will understand why Jesus came into this world.

My prayers for you but remember its your courage and determination that shall make you beat this devil.
very sad to know that you have cancer however, you can beat it and win this battle. With God all things are possible and trust Him believe that God can heal you and restore your health back to normal. I pray the healing power of Jesus blood on your life and healing of the soul. That peace and joy will over come you and your wife as well. Remember the battle belongs to the lord stay strong in His name. In the mighty name of Jesus. Love happy in Jesus.
May God truely bless you and your family...My mom always said "beleave in God and just have faith the size of a mustard seed and you will be fine...I do have alot of faith.
Also when I was 4 my baby sister passed away and I ask my Grandma "Grandma why did Tammy have to die" and as she heald me rocking on the front porch,she said "Valerie when God needs a new rose for his garden,he picks a new rose" I feel we are all flowers and one day we will all be a "Rose Garden"
A big Rose Garden,and he also took my momma not long ago and my Aunt Doe-Doe,I know his garden has to be looking pretty good by now...
So maybe we should all give it some thought that we are gonna be part of a pretty Rose Garden,and just try not to be scared to go ,cause we are all going one day soon...right?
I have not seen dirty dancing but my heart just goes out to you Patrick...Remember there is nothing impossible with God and He says we do not have because we do not ask so just ask for life and He will give it to you.
please please Patrick get better. I hope that you beat the sad stastisticks and beat this cancer.
You are my ideal ever since Dirty Dancing. I want you to recover and "Have the time of your life"
My thoughts and prayers go to you. Lisa and the rest of your family.
BEAT IT PATRICK.
Loads and loads of love Nicci Kirkham, united kingdom

Patrick,m sorry about ur illness.

U may have many downs b4 dt bt believe u will be UP soon...and also this is an opportunity to relate closely with ur Maker if you have not already. God bless.
We love you Patrick! You were great in the Outsiders, Dirty Dancing, Ghost, just a few of our favorites. We have watched them over and over. We hope you fight this. Our prayers go out to you and your family! Get well real soon. God Bless!
He is cool. But I am very curious. Why did he post his profile on a celebrities and wealthy website named
" wealthydater. com". What is he looking for there?
I FELL IN LOVE WITH PATRICK WHEN HE DID THE SAGA NORTH AND SOUTH. HE IS AN AWESOME ACTOR. GOD BLESS YOU IN THIS TIME YOU ARE IN MY THOUGHS AND PRAYERS.
When Dirty Dancing first previewed in the theatre, I had just had surgery to repair broken bones in my ankle from a championship softball game. We won (LOL). I had a cast up to my hip. To cheer me up, my friends took me to see Dirty Dancing at the theatre, because they knew I wanted to see it real bad. It was not easy to get me into the car (LOL). One friend hung his head out of the window all the way to the theatre (LOL). When we got there, they told the theatre manager how much I loved Patrick Swayze, so the manager let me and my friends sit through 6 showings of the movie. I cried every time. THANK YOU PATRICK FOR ONE OF MY BEST MEMORIES IN LIFE!!
Patrick is a wonderful actor an great husband an a gifted man GOD bless you an my prayers are with you hope you can beat this dont want to lose a fine actor..
This is really sad to news to hear. Cancer is an awful disease that can strike just about anyone. It's scary! I hope that Patrick will get through this. I will pray for him and his loved ones. GOD BLESS!!!
It is very sad to hear of anyone getting cancer. But Parick is one of everyone's fav's. Wish him and his family the best of luck. They have a very long and hard road. And as for some how are so sure that things will turn out bad. I day this to them, more and more people are getting cancer and beating it. It's not in your hands it's it God's so let him do his work.
I pray that God put's his healing hand on Patrick and helps him as he deals with this. It's hard enough dealing with cancer, let alone dealing with in front of the world. God bless you Patrick, you will be in our hears and prayers as you fight for what matter's to you.
