Patrick Swayze: Official Statement

Posted by Sassy Smith

 

 

Patrick Swayze's dreams of being a dad may not be realized, however, he's being optimistic about his cancer diagnosis.  The Dirty Dancing actor's rep has issued the following statement:

"Actor Patrick Swayze has been diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and is currently undergoing treatment. Patrick's physician Dr. George Fisher states, 'Patrick has a very limited amount of disease and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far. All of the reports stating the timeframe of his prognosis and his physical side effects are absolutely untrue. We are considerably more optimistic.' Patrick is continuing his normal schedule during this time, which includes working on upcoming projects. The outpouring of support and concern he has already received from the public is deeply appreciated by Patrick and his family."

Oh I so hope he's not on his deathbed - I've always loved me some Johnny and Baby dance moves.

   First I would like to thank you for giving so much to everyone over the years.  I was so saddened to hear of your illness.  I wish you a very speedy and full recovery.  I pray for strength for you and your loved ones to fight this illness and deal with the depression that goes with all serious illnesses.

    There are many, many people that wish they could do something to help.  When we hear of people who mean so much to so many like you, Michael Fox, and Charlton Heston going through serious conditions.  We feel so helpless that we can not give you or your family support or a helping hand in your time of need and pain.  We will be thinking of you and your loved ones and hoping to hear of your progress and recovery.  

respectfully yours, CW
