| Patrick Swayze gives up medication for his pancreatic cancer
Very sad.... Quote:
PATRICK SWAYZE has reportedly stopped all medical treatment for his pancreatic cancer.
The Dirty Dancing star has been battling the illness for 12 months, but a family friend of the actor has revealed he's no longer going to fight it.
The friend said: "There’s nothing more doctors can do for him.
"We are down to the wire and the goal now is to keep Patrick comfortable.
"His condition is inoperable and they have stopped the chemo. He’s still losing weight and he’s very weak.’
"Patrick regards himself as a cowboy, and is determined to die with his boots on and no regrets." http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage...cle2186102.ece | |

Shitty. I wanted to watch him in the musical "Chicago" but never got around to it.

He hasn't actually stopped treatment.
Don't trust stupid British tabloids... Quote:
Recent reports claiming that actor Patrick Swayze has stopped medical treatment for his cancer are completely false, his rep told FOXNews.com Thursday.

His agent refuted that rumor and says he's still on his way to recovery and has not given up on his medication. It was on eTalk/Access Hollywood
