If you were a teener in the 80s, then you must know Patrick Swayze.
You know…the Dirty Dancing Patrick Swayze and the Road House Patrick Swayze.
Yeah, definitely the Ghost Patrick Swayze.
Reports recently broke that Patrick Swayze only has five weeks to live due to pancreatic cancer.
While it is true that patients with pancreatic cancer has a very small chance of surviving this deadly cancer, doctors to Mr. Swayze stated that what the tabloids have reporeted isn’t exactly true.
“Patrick has a very limited amount of disease and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far,” Swayze’s physician, Dr. George Fisher said in the statement. “All of the reports stating the time frame of his prognosis and his physical side effects are absolutely untrue. We are considerably more optimistic.”
But even though the five-week time frame trumpeted by tabloids may be false, cancer specialists say that pancreatic cancer more often than not comes with a daunting prognosis.
Well, we only wish that Patrick Swayze will respond well to his treatments.
