The National Enquirer is reporting the shocking news that Patrick Swayze only has five weeks to live.
Swayze, 55, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in late January and apparently it has spread to other organs.
He has been receiving ‘radical chemotherapy’ treatment at Stanford University’s cancer center in Palo Alto but doctors fear there is no more they can do for him. The three major doses he received did shrink the tumor, but less than expected.
A source said, “He was told he could have two more treatments, but his cancer was not responding. In short – they held out little hope for a cure.”
“It’s time to start praying for a miracle.”
He has reportedly been told to prepare for the end of his life. Patrick has lost more than 20 pounds in the last few weeks and can barely keep solid foods down.
This is just terrible, terrible news. Cancer is such an ugly disease! It’s very hard on everyone involved – unfortunately I know from experience. Let’s hope the Enquirer is wrong about this and that Patrick continues to live a productive life – the magazine has gone overboard in celebrities diagnosis in the past…
My god this is horrible news. Such a shock. Let’s hope he can beat this thing.
[...] Which male actor only has 5 weeks left to live? – CS [...]
I read that his publicist confirmed it today and that he was diagnosed with it only a month ago.
The Swayze family has had its share of bad luck. His sister committed suicide and his brother was a big drunk. Hope he proves the docotrs wrong!
