Some places online are reporting that it is terminal, but who knows...

I still love Dirty Dancing. Yes, I admit, dammit!

And I'll admit that Road House is one of my faves - Patrick Swayze, Sam Elliott, and Jeff Healy - *sigh*

I do hope it's not terminal.... :(

Wow this is really sad.. I know lately he seems to have aged quite quickly. Hopefully the treatment he is receiving will stop it or slow it down.

I loved him back from North and South, the first time I'd ever seen him. :hug:

One of my co-workers told me about this today. I was hoping they had misheard. Pancreatic cancers only have about a 5% five-year survival rate. :(

I love Dirty Dancing too... but I also LOVE him in To Wong Foo

Ah that is a shame :(
Along with Road House, I liked Black Dog, and Keeping Mum. Red Dawn was on tv the other day and I didn't get to watch it all the way. My dh and I would like to watch it all the way through. Guess what I'll be renting ;)

I heard he had only 5 weeks to live!

Mind you it's all speculation and rumours, but there's usually some truth in there.

:cry:

I was so sad when I heard this yesterday...Dirty Dancing is one of my all time favourite films and now I get to watch it with my daughter as well. Also love Roadhouse (haven't seen it in ages...must watch again) and Wong Foo - he is just fab in it.

Really? That's the best survival rate I've ever heard of for pancreatic cancer. I've lost 2 friends to it in the last 6 years! :cry:

Pancreatic cancer is....harsh and fast. Poor Patrick Swayze! I'm sorry to say that I'm sure it's terminal, and it won't be long. :cry:

I was thinking of another movie I loved him in today, Ghost. That one made me bawl. :cry:
