It's True

Patrick Swayze has pancreatic cancer, his publicist confirmed on Wednesday.

The average life expectancy of someone diagnosed with cancer of the pancreas is six to nine months, with only 4 percent of patients living more than five years.

And, according to the National Enquirer, who broke the sad news first, Patrick's cancer has already spread to other parts of his body - making his chances of survival even more slim.

Let us all sends our prayers, positive energy and thoughts to him. That he is not in pain. And that his family does not suffer too much either.

So incredibly, heartbreakingly sad.

That is a grim diagnosis and very sad to hear. Patrick Swayze is a great guy who has a lot of talent. I hope he beats it in some way and stays with us for a long time. I hope it's a rumor.
