Artorius Castus

Star Swayze diagnosed with cancer

Posted in Uncategorized by Patrick Truax on March 6, 2008

American actor Patrick Swayze has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, his agent has confirmed.
However, his doctor said reports that the Dirty Dancing star had only five weeks to live were “absolutely untrue”.

The 55-year-old is currently undergoing treatment and is continuing with his filming schedule.

Swayze, who also starred in the hit film Ghost, was diagnosed with cancer more than a month ago, the New York Post reported on its website.

His doctor George Fisher said in a statement: “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.”

This is really too bad. While Arorius doesnt condone the “People Magazining” of America, we’ll make an exception here. Cancer has touched me so many times since my Mom passed from it in 2001, I have come to hate the disease. This is a good time to remind everyone to click on the Breast Cancer link on the left hand side of the page. Prayers and Godspeed for Patrick…
