Swayze's Mom Speaks Out
Filed under: Patrick Swayze
Patrick Swayze has remained tight-lipped since news of his fight with pancreatic cancer became public.
Friends and former colleagues have spoken out about the Dirty Dancing star, and now his mom is talking publicly about her ailing son.
“He doesn’t deserve to get this,” Patrick’s 81-year-old mother, Patsy, told the National Enquirer. “He just doesn’t deserve it. He’s got such a big heart. He’s been such a good and generous and thoughtful person. It breaks my heart to know he’s suffering. But he bears it and he’s determined to beat this. He’s hanging in there and getting the best treatment he can.”
Patsy told the mag that her son has been ‘humbled’ by the support he has received since word of his illness became public. And a family insider says that Swayze has been strong for the people around him.
“Patrick as usual, is worried more about other people than himself."
Stay strong (and smoke less)!

I hope he beats the odds!!!!
heart breaking
Aw jeez… I feel so for his mother. My father died of pancreatic cancer, and his mother was still alive to see this happen. No mother should see a child die no matter how old. My heart goes out to her.
second?
There's nothing worse than a parent outliving their child.Prayers & peace to them all.
my grandfather passed from pancreas cancer. i guess its supposed to be one of the most painful cancers. no bueno..
Thanks for posting Swayze updates. I'm so shocked by the news of his illness, and it's nice to know what's going on. What a terrible tragedy to happen to such a golden person.
second! maybe!
first !
1sttt!
that's so sad how he has cancer
i hope he makes it somehow, and perez is right, don't smoke!!!
poor guy!
first- probably not though
First…that's sad
Perez, PLEASE. This man is dying. As I mentioned in an earlier post, from professional experience I can tell you that smoking is NOT going to affect his outcome. He has pancreatic cancer. Kicking the habit now will only add to the discomfort he is in, something I'm sure his doctors have discussed with him. Withdrawal on top of chemo and the symptoms associated with this cancer do not add up. Please, people need to be more educated about terminal illness. These anti-smoking posts, while useful elsewhere, are just plain wrong and go against a palliative approach here.
Dude had it coming. Just my opinion. You can't smoke 3 packs a day and expect to live forever. I wasn't a fan of his. I didn't like Dirty Dancing either. That was a chick flick anyway. I don't like musicals either. Most straight men don't as a rule.
You don't have to like something because the closet cases who run the award shows in Hollywood say it's good.
I'm Fuckin' First!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!
And while I'm here I might add: Perez, you are a nasty skanky spik piece of shit you queeny obese cunt! Go fuck yourself royally fatty-fat-fat!!!!!
Perez you look like you would taste like garbage if someone licked you. Ewwwwww
Oh BTW, OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!!!
hate to say it, he isn't going to win this fight. I lost my mom 6yrs. ago to pancreatic cancer. The survival rate is very, very low with this type of cancer.
Re: First McFirsty –
had it coing?! you're a sick person! go to hell!
I know he will survive this..
i also agree with onlydreamin, smoking has nothing to do with his cancer.
Re: James – Wow, you're kind of an asshole, huh? Clearly, somebody needs to get laid.
Hell yea smoke less. Homeboy smoke three damn PACKS A DAY!!! I can barely smoke more than four cigarettes a day and he happily goes through 60 fuckin cigarettes a day. He needs to start using whatever Lindsay BLOHAN is using to help him quit.
Shut up with the smoking already…you do know that getting fucked in the ass during anonymous sex is deadlier than smoking, right? So why don't you give up gay sex, you moron.
Is Patrick's mom implying that other people who get cancer "deserve it"? If the world worked that way, no one would have cancer except Daumer, Hitler, and most of Death Row.
Please don't mention smoking as if that is the only cause of pancreatic cancer. my mom passed away this past november from pan. can. and she never smoked a cigarette in her life..she was 55 too. Although smoking can contribute, its not the only cause- and it certainly shouldnt be rubbed in anybody's face after theyre diagnosed with probably the most deadliest cancers of all. just letting you know
Perez, I wish you would take some time and get off your fat ass and visit and oncology center or something rather than spout your bullshit. Take a look at a person who is under chemo and see how hard it is. Maybe somebody should start a PIC-Line one one of your arms and see if you can handle it. Get some education about the disease before ya spout your dumb shit on your site.
Smoking probably gave him the cancer, but stopping now won't cure him. Folks, face the facts… he'll be gone within six months. This cancer is BAD.
Be strong Patrick!!! I have to say this though.."Nobody puts Baby in the corner!"
Dirty Dancing quote"Nobody puts Baby in the corner!"
OMG NOOOOO!!!! I've loved PS since I first saw him in "Road House"! He was absolutly TERRIFIC in "Dirty Dancing"!…….& "Ghost" is my favorite movie of all time….he & Demi were fantastic! I watch it everytime it comes on TV> He will beat this! Hang in there PS, we know u can do it!! Bless his Mother too, she sounds like a terrific person!
WTF?! So who the fuck really does this disease. Stupid bitch! He got the cancer b/c of the 3 pack a day habit. What about the person who lives a clean and happy life with a big heart and still gets the disease that leaves his family devasted. Whatever and he is still smoking? See you dude.. Thanks for Dirty Dancing.
Please don't mention smoking as if that is the only cause of pancreatic cancer. my mom passed away this past november from pan. can. and she never smoked a cigarette in her life..she was 55 too. she had beaten the cancer, but died because of a blood clot after surgery- so it is beatable. Although smoking can contribute, its not the only cause- and it certainly shouldnt be rubbed in anybody's face after theyre diagnosed with the most deadliest cancers of all. just letting you know that when someones batlling death its not the time to be judgmental. until youve been there or someone in you family has, you wouldnt understand. you actually offended me for the first time perez
I love you perez… however, no more derogatory swayze comments, please.
God Bless Patrick's family. My heart goes out to them. Please stay storng.
I wish I could be with him, to give him all the love and support he needs.
He could use some of my special loving right now.
this is so sad!!!
ps his moms name is patsy? how cute is that!
That " smoking" pic looks to big to be a cigg, I'm guessing it's medicinal bud. Good for him.
Smoking less is not going to cure him. Now what matters is quality of life, not quantity of life. Don't bother quiting smoking if you are going to feel uncomfortable from it. smoke away, but reconcile relationships and spend quality time with the ones you love. when my dad got sick with cancer, i was not about to tell him he should quit smoking when we knew he only had so much time left, it was more like, smoke all you want, just let us spend as much time with you so we can share our love with you before you age gone from us.
what's happening to patrick is horrible. may god show him the love and comfort needed to get through this.
HIS MOM'S SWEET TOO. SHE GAVE DEBBIE ALLEN DANCING LESSONS WHEN SHE WASN'T ALLOWED TO TAKE DANCE LESSONS AT THE ALL WHITE SCHOOLS………………………..DAMN RACISTS!!!!!!!!!!!!………….ANYWAY AS YOU KNOW DEBBIE WENT ON TO CHOREOGRAPH THE OSCARS, THE SHOW "FAME" AND OPENED HER OWN SCHOOL WHERE PEOPLE OF ALL RACES CAN LEARN! PATRICK OBVIOUSLY LEARNED FROM HIS MOM BECAUSE HE REFUSED TO DO "GHOST" UNLESS WHOOPI WAS IN IT TOO …..MAKING HER ONLY THE SECOND BLACK WOMAN TO WIN A SUPPORTING OSCAR ROLE…..AFTER HATTIE McDANIEL IN "GONE WITH THE WIND" ………I'M NOT SAYING WHOOPI WOULDN'T HAVE WON THE OSCAR WITHOUT PATRICK…..SHE WOULD HAVE…..I ALSO THOUGHT SHE WAS ROBBED FOR "THE COLOR PURPLE" I'M SAYING….IT'S GOOD TO HEAR THESE KIND OF STORIES WHEN I'M STILL FUMING ABOUT THAT HYPOCRIT HATEFUL SALLY KERNS OF OKLAHOMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE HATES GAYS YET HER SON IS GAY AND HER HUSBAND CALLS HIMSELF A PREACHER WHEN HE HOLDS A KKK MEMBERSHIP IN BOISE, IDAHO!!!!!!!!! WTF?

Re: jimmyjazz – you tell em Jimbo!!!!
Re: patrickgay – Now, now, Patrick at #9. That is just inappropriate. How irreverent especially on a posting like this about an ailing aging pop star. Your hiding behind your computer and the details you give indicate a diagnosis of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, Exhibitionism, and very likely size issues over your pitifully small boysize giblets.
Okay, listen up perez… on one hand i laud you for trying to get people to stop smoking b/c it is in fact uneccesarily unhealthy; however, you are FAT!!!!! perhaps, even morbidly obese (according to the CDC).
p.s. obesity causes Americans far more money and ill health than smoking anyday… look it up if you don't believe me (I have a MPH), i.e. coronary heart disease, diabetes, stroke, certain forms of cancer primarily stem from obesity. so before you start throwing stones, you should move out of your FAT ASS GLASS HOUSE.
I hate you.
I dont get the last remark in perez comment "Stay strong (and smoke less)!"
What does that have to do with pancreatic cancer???? The two are not linked and perez is misinformed..
Do we even know that he shmokes?? still its not an issue here.. this is the worst cancer ever.
GIve better advice of gl and our prayers are with you..
Perez.. u got it wrong again.. u turd..
get Well
May a few of your ciggies be joints, Mr. Swayze.
Perez,
Please let the guy die in peace. Stop telling him to stop smoking. You are being a sadistic cruel person.
Re: KKK –
I'll give you $50 bucks to get your haplogroup sorted out, mister triple-gay.
We're all Africans first and foremost. All of us. The whitest of the white inclusive.
Even you, Perez.
I agree with Onlydreamin. He is in enough pain already and, as horibble as it is he will probably die soon. and whoever you were that said he deserves it go Fucking die! BTW Perez that is fucking harsh for you to go on about the smoking. The man is DYING of an incredibly painful disease so lay off

just goes 2 show how addictive cigs really are! Don't you think he would quit if he could??? Idiots….go after the tobacco companies who add addictive drugs and chemicals to smokes instead.
Re: Little Old Retired Psychologist Lady – #57 TEE HEE
I've been visisting this website for a while know and just wondering why does everyone say first?
I've figured its because they want to be the first comment but people still say it like 50 after the first one.
Go prez
HELLO!!! DO NOY JUDGE ME - I LOVE YOU BECAUSE YOU NORMALLY
Perez - do not JUDGE PEOPLE FOR WHAT THE DO. yOU ARE GAY - I SMOKE. YOU OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULD NOT JUDGE.
i actually heard hes kind of a douchebag…… lots of actors and hosts have said
It's so sad. He has always been such a quiet, behind the scenes type. So, healthy (3 pack a day smoker???) My god a dancer. I am sad. I wish him on;ly the best and When I say my Lenten prayers he is included.
Perez, get off him about the smoking thing. It is HIS life, HIS body, and HIS cancer. If he wants to smoke, it is nobody's business. He has only a few months to live. He has the right to do whatever he wants. Who are you to judge him? Being overweight kills more people than smoking, and I don't see that stopping you from packing on the pounds. God, how can you stand being such a hypocrite?
You know what else kills??
I think everyone should just leave him alone and let him live the rest of his life how HE wants to, cigarettes or not! Pancreatic Cancer is one of the fastest spreading cancers you can get. Patrick should be living the rest of his life free of criticism and judgement. He should be getting support and love from his fans, family and friends!
(finishing up from my last post)
you know what else kills? Un-necessary cosmetic surgery has killed lots of people and it is even more pathetic than smoking cigarettes! Yet you still think that is better than a woman aging gracefully in Hollywood!
Sending our heartfelt love,hugs & prayers out to Patrick & Lisa and also his family . This is a really hard time for them as the public is aware of a truly personal and tragic time for them.
Please respect their time and healing and send love and prayers out to Patrick.
Say no to negative thoughts yall!
Patrick love will heal you! Lisa Thank you for loving him so.
A fan, loving Patrick
God Bless you! God Speed
He is an awesome, awesome man. I cant even imagine what its like to lose a child. I pray for them all.
Pancreatic cancer is one of the worse cancers you can get, Depending on the extent of the tumor at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis is generally regarded as poor, with few victims still alive five years after diagnosis, and complete remission still extremely rare enjoy your last years of life man your where a good man and it will be echoed into eternity
LETS ALL JUST IGNORE PEREZ' DUMB COMMENTS.
Even the negative ones create bad attention.
Our thoughts are with Patrick and his family.
Isn't he a recovering alcoholic, thus the pancreatic cancer. This is like a smoker who gets lung cancer. Sad but…..
poor swayze. i wanna give him a big hug.
i love swayze and i hope the best for him- fight it with all your might! no smokes, vegan diet, chemo, do anything it takes! losing you would devastate the world!
Quit harping about his smoking AFTER he's gotten cancer. He's got it, already, leave the poor man alone.
i send only love and positive thoughts to patrick swayze. his death would break my fragile heart. i was born a catholic yet never practiced. i have in my own way (and will be
