Description:
Swayze was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in late January 2008, and has been undergoing chemotherapy and other treatments at the Stanford University Medical Center. A March 5, 2008 Reuters article reports that Swayze "has a very limited amount of disease, and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far". Swayze's doctor has confirmed the actor has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but insists he's not as close to death as reports suggest. Specifically, Swayze was diagnosed with a type of pancreatic tumor called Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm (IPMN). In early May 2008, it was widely reported that in a number of tabloids that Swayze had undergone surgery to remove part of his stomach after the spread of the cancer, and that he had rewritten his will, transferring his property to his wife.In a statement made on May 28, Swayze said that he continues to respond well to treatment at Stanford University Medical Center. In late May 2008 he was seen at a Los Angeles Lakers basketball game, his first public appearance since his diagnosis. In 2008 Swayze was treated with Cyberknife radiotherapy cancer treatment.In late July 2008, six months after allegedly being given just weeks to live by medical experts, Swayze was seen in Los Angeles LAX airport appearing healthy. When asked about his condition, he told reporters "I'm cooking. I'm a miracle dude, I don't know why".Swayze appeared on the ABC, NBC, and CBS simulcast of Stand Up to Cancer in September 2008, to appeal to the general public for donations for the initiative. Swayze said to a standing ovation, "I dream that the word 'cure' will no longer be followed by the words 'it's impossible'. Together we can make a world where cancer no longer means living with fear, without hope, or worse". After the show ended, Swayze lingered onstage and talked to other cancer survivors; executive producer Laura Ziskin said, "He said a beautiful thing: 'I'm just an individual living with cancer.' That's how he wants to be thought of. He's in a fight, but he's a fighter".Swayze has denied claims made by tabloids that the cancer has spread to his liver. However, in his interview with Barbara Walters which aired in January of 2009, Swayze revealed that he had a "tiny little mass" in his liver.

Apr 9, 2011 - his mistake was to dutifully go along with the medical establishments barbaric cancer protocol of cut, burn, & poison. They know that they cannot cure anyone of pancreactic cancer with their protocol nor nearly any other form of cancer with it. their treatment is toxic to the body destroys one's immune system.
whatigot2say Says:
Apr 9, 2011 - @domenica562 they all lose the battle because the treatments are more toxic than the disease. only alternative therapies have been proven to heal the body.. such as the gerson therapies gerson.org.

Jul 21, 2011 - When I was a little girl I was one of your biggest fans! I had posters all over my room of you, especailly the ones with you and horses. That 's one thing we shared in our lives, the love for horses.! My first horse was a beatiful white Egyptian Arabian named Aglaya. She died of cancer when she was only 12 years old (melanoma's) two days before X-mas in 2005. Please give her hug from me and tell her she will be in my heart forever, just like you Patrick! I love you!
