Patrick Swayze was diagnosed with Stage IV pancreatic cancer. Survival rates for this form of cancer are poor, and despite a valiant fight, Swayze lost his battle passing away yesterday at the age of 57.
Rest In Peace,my God give comfort to your survivors.
The sad part is that he was younger than this author by 7 months.
What a shame Mike. He was so very young. He also was very talented.Have a terrific day. Big hug. 🙂
Pancreatic cancer is a bad cancer. I hope that he is now at rest and peaceful.
Sandee,that he was.Syd,Let's hope so.
He fought so hard and with dignity. I feel for his wife and family. 🙁
Akelamalu,I feel the same way.
I was sorry to hear this last night. I always liked him and respected the way he fought this last fight.
Mari,I respected him for not giving up the fight as well,even if the survival rate is low he was determined to try to beat the odds.
He will be missed.
Wanda's Wings,Yes he will.
he was just a plain old great guy! just a great guy and it's just a real sad deal that he lost the battle…
Scott,he was a class act that is for sure.
It is sad, but he left a beautiful movie – 'Ghost.' I like to think that the love he represents in that movie, is like real love that transcends time, and waits for us on the other side. It makes me cry to think of the sweetness of that movie, and I am so glad that he made it.Blessings to you, Mike.
'Tart,yo hit that right on the head.
