Some sad, sad news for movie fans, as today it was announced through the National Enquirer that Patrick Swayze has only five weeks left to live. From the source: "In a shocking world exclusive, The NATIONAL ENQUIRER has uncovered the devastating news that the beloved Hollywood actor and dancer was diagnosed in late January with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other organs. "For the past month, Patrick, 55, has been traveling to Stanford University's prestigious cancer center in Palo Alto for radical chemotherapy, but his doctors are no longer optimistic that the treatments will be successful." "He received three doses of chemotherapy and the tumor shrank, but less than his doctors had hoped for — and Patrick was told he should prepare for the end." "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," said an insider." It's a sad state of affairs when the actor who made such classics as Road House and Red Dawn can't beat cancer. So to brighten the mood, here's some pics of him making silly faces in Ghost.
And finally, here's Patrick in six weeks:
Edit: I changed the title. It IS the National Enquirer after all... Edit, edit: Yeah, so as Max pointed out, maaaaaaaaaaybe I should have waited on this one...also, best wishes to Mr. Swayze. This is a sad/funny post on a serious subject. I work at a cancer center, so I can't be too serious about this stuff all the time, lest I get depressed.

I wouldn't believe that shit magazine if my LIFE depended on it.
Also, all of this is totally lame and NVGR.
SOOOOO yeah. Regardless if it's true or not, he'll either have to deal with cancer or paparazzi. You're in my prayers dude.
I'm here, you know, if you need a shoulder to cry on.
Just sayin'.
Movie star Patrick Swayze is fighting for his life in a California hospital, if tabloid and Internet reports are to be believed.
