Kids, do NOT smoke!!!!!
SMOKING KILLS!
A new report claims that actor Patrick Swayze had a filthy habit of smoking three packs of cigarettes a day.
We hope that's not true.
Any sane person would know THAT IS TOO MUCH.
Smoking kills!
INSIDE EDITION has uncovered Patrick Swayze had a three pack a day cigarette habit. The habit was so bad it was listed as a partial factor in the cause of a plane crash Swayze was involved in by the National Transit Safety Board in 2000. The report reveals Swayze was flying his plane when he became physically impaired in the cockpit which authorities said may have been caused by the cumulative effects of carbon monoxide by-products from the engine and from tobacco use.
Don't smoke, kids!!!
According to the American Cancer Society previous studies have shown that smoking is responsible for about one-third of pancreatic cancer deaths. Studies reveal heavy smoking may damage the pancreas before cancer develops leaving the damaged pancreas more susceptible and at a greater risk of developing cancer.
Smoking kills!!!!
Can I just point out the 3 out of ten figure (at least I think thats whats been quoted)?
Thats like out of 10 people who get this evil illness only 3 of it could possibly be down to smokeing..what about the 7 others who are having their lives ripped apart
There is a increased risk yes…but there is also a chance it could of been caused due to another factor such as genes. Also there is no clear proof atm that the poor guy smoked…just storys.
Premoting awarness is fine, but being preahey about someones life choice (IF he smoked) when only yesterday this story broke..is a bit well screwy isnt it?
PEREZ YOU FAT FUCK.
STOP JUDGING PEOPLE. AND STOP BEING BIASED TOWARDS CLINTON.
SAYING NOT TO SMOKE, YOU COULD ALSO SAY TO YOURSELF THAT BEING A BAT UNATTRACTIVE SOCIAL RETARD KILLS!!!
GET A CLUE PINKY!!
This is nice, spread rumors about terminally ill cancer patients. Leave him alone assholes.
i would LOVE to quit. been trying for years now. sponsor some free patches if you really wanna help.
Uhhh, he has pancreatic cancer. Derrrrr
So sad, I sure hope He does get better. Smoking is nothing next to what other Hollywood celebs are doing nowadays, but let this be a sad lesson to all of us. No addiction is good
Oh GREAT PerASS! and the others who reported his smoking! So, are all of yall NOW saying it is HIS fault he has cancer and may very well die from the disease???
Just a morsel of food for thought…EXACTLY WHAT will all the health nuts die from???? It damn sure wont be from eating too many veggies or running too many miles or too many trips to the gym. It will be some sort of illness or disease. There is NO such thing as dying simply of "old age".
Leave this man alone and get off your damn high horses! I am not perfect..as far as what I have been told, there was only one perfect person to have existed on this earth..and they crucified, mutilated, and killed him. Sure glad IIIIIIIIIIII am not perfect. What about you Perez and the other homosexuals out there? Are we going to start announcing what types of lives were led and how that contributed to the deaths of folks?
Damn, PerASS, you have gotten really cheesy lately.
Those of you who smoke are just trying to justify your nasty habit out of guilt! Those of us who don't smoke will be around alot longer than you sadly. Cigs kill….why would you want to KNOWINGLY commit suicide?
Thanks for mentioning the American Cancer Society!!
What's with all you morons that claim smoking has nothing to do with pancreatic cancer? Do your research you fucking idiots. It practically doubles the risk. Smoking causes many forms of cancer, not just lung cancer. Don't write shit if you don't have a fucking clue what you are talking about.
Risk factors for pancreatic cancer include:
Age
Male gender
African ethnicity
Smoking. Cigarette smoking causes a 75% risk increase, and the risk persists for at least a decade after quitting.
Diets high in red meat
Obesity
Diabetes mellitus
Chronic pancreatitis has been linked, but is not known to be causal
Helicobacter pylori infection
Occupational exposure to certain pesticides, dyes, and chemicals related to gasoline
Family history, including autosomal recessive ataxia-telangiectasia and autosomal dominantly inherited mutations in the BRCA2 gene, Peutz-Jeghers
DON'T try to start a cause, already berating the guy for smoking and making all smokers worry they're going to die from PC… okay, I have never smoked and think it's gross, but for fuck's sake, the guy is seriously sick - and there is no proven causal effect etc - let the guy get better, don't start trying to apportion blame, not least to a habit that may or may not have been a contributory factor. And remember… no-one puts Baby in the corner
3 packs a day!?! C`mon! If he smoked that much he wouldnt have time for anything else. Maybe he does smoke.. But 3 packs? No way!
I smoke 10 sig. a day. If I`m free from work and have time I may come close to 20.. But I think that is alot, and takes time..
3 packs? OH PLEASE!
And even if he does, its nobodys business!
Re: houskat – I agree, houskat. It's really a total crap-shoot. For example, my dad smoked 3 packs a day for 40 years (but quit 20 years ago), still drinks like a fish, and still puts a potato on his butter and salt, as I like to point out to him, but he keeps active. Both his parents died before they reached 60; my dad is now nearing 80 and, much to my chagrin, remains in very good health for his age. I just don't get it.
In any event, getting back to Patrick Swayze … Perez, until this post, I was sooooo applauding your initial treatment of the situation on your website. But then for you to go off on the "Smoking Kills!" bandwagon doesn't do Patrick Swayze justice. Now, you're just going the same ol' sleazoid route all of the other tabs are heading. I'm disappointed in you, Perezito.
#111 - ALL YOU MORONS DEFENDING SMOKING
Im not defending smoking, there is nothing to defend. Its a choice. We who do run a greater risk for all kinds of diseas. But that is up to us, not your problem!
And btw.
My bestfriends grandfather smoked close to 40 a day and lived to be 97.. Beat that!
Let the man go in peace. It doesn't matter how or what he did in his life let him enjoy the rest of it.
THANKS
you know what else kills? gay sex! hello,AIDS!
Perez is right. Smoking is a cause of pancreatic cancer. My favorite aunt recently died from pancreatic cancer. She was a heavy smoker. I took care of her at my home after she was diagnosed with it where she eventually died. She was in the advanced stages and lasted about two months after it was discovered. All these posters who claim the contrary should google pancreatic cancer and go to the Mayo Clinic webpage and read the facts. Peace.
please… most people who have developed pancreatic cancer have never smoked a day in their lives… it's randon… i seriously doubt smoking caused his cancer… thats a theory anway…
He came into work for a commentary session with his wife and smoked a pack in 4 hours and stunk out our office for a week
The only ones that smoke are IDIOTS like Britney Spears. They get what they deserve. It's the people who die from SECONDHAND SMOKE, that didn't smoke or deserve the consequences from the IDIOTS who smoke at their workplace, etc.
I love you Perez for always pointing out how gross it is to smoke and calling celebs out for it. Too many celebs, who are often seen as role models, smoke and young kids think its cool, but its not. It's nasty.
Can people seriously smoke that much in a day? I really would not think it possible.
I smoke weed and don't smoke cigarrettes but Pisser PLEASE don't try to give advice to kids when all you do is talk shit all day anyway….smoke what you want people…it's NOBODYS problem but your own…
Still love you though Pisser…
Yes, people can smoke that much in a day. They crave more and more nicotine, and need to smoke more and more. My boss smoked all day and night.
WOLVERINES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
get your facts straight!! It's prostrate cancer!!!
Gee, thanks Perez….Just what we all need: health advice from an over-weight gossip monger
perez-
the plane thing happened because he's a DRUNK. since you are intent on punishing him at this vulnerable time, why don't you go whole hog and just tell the total truth?
MY FATHER INLAW DID NOT!! SMOKE A DAY OF HIS LIFE AND DIED FROM PANCREATIC CANCER!!! SMOKING IS BAD IM AN EX SMOKER HATE THE SMELL I REGRET EVER DOING IT SO NO ONE SHOULD SMOKE BUT ITS DIRESPECTFUL TO PUT PATS FACE UP AND SAY SMOKING KILLS, HE IS NOT!! DEAD YET AND IN A FIGHT FOR HIS LIFE AND ODDS ARE NOT GOOD PEREZ HAVE A LITTLE RESPECT HERE OKAY!
Pot head/smokers are just as DUMB AS DIRT as cigarette/cigar/pipe smokers. Pot has ALL the carcinogens that cigarette smoke has.
All you posters saying Swayze deserves to die are really sick fucks. Judging from the tone and composition of your comments, the lot of you are all very likely the same socially-challenged, 13 year old wanker. If you can't express any compassion, at least keep your twisted thoughts to yourself. You obviously don't realize it, but karma can be a bitch. In addition to afflicting decent people like Swayze, cancer can also affect assholes like you.
I AM a stage 4 cancer survior and know many people who have lived through it and many who have died.
Smoking is bad, YES, but one is NOT related to the other, my friend Richard died of pancreatic cancer and he did not smoke…
PLEASE RETRACT the smoking and the connection to cancer… My friend Shawna died of lung cancer last year, and she did not smoke…
I ask this with thoughts of Patrick in mind, why kick him in the teeth while he's down
Cigarettes kill and should be against the law. If cocaine, marijuana, & meth are illegal, cigarettes should be too. Too many deaths and too many health care dollars wasted on smokers.
Secondhand smoke KILLS:
Case links woman’s death to environmental tobacco smoke, MSU prof says
by Tom Oswald
February 7, 2008 - A young asthmatic woman who collapsed and died shortly after arriving for her shift as a waitress at a bar may be the first reported death to be reported nationally from acute asthma associated with environmental tobacco smoke.
This case report by an MSU physician, published in the February edition of the American Journal of Industrial Medicine, not only outlines circumstances under which the woman died, but also raises a number of issues regarding safety in the workplace.
The report states the woman arrived at the bar in Michigan and, according to co-workers, seemed happy and healthy. About 15 or 20 minutes later she collapsed and within a few minutes died.
“This is the first reported acute asthma death associated with work-related ETS,” said Kenneth Rosenman, an MSU professor of medicine and chief of the Division of Occupational and Environmental Medicine. “Recent studies of air quality and asthma among bar and restaurant workers before and after smoking bans support this association.”
I know you're trying to be sympathetic… but you're not doing any good by making out smoking = terminal cancer. It's like gay = HIV i.e. embarassingly 80s.
Perez - I love you - don't be reductionist xxx
when he was involved in the airplane incident, THEY AUTHORITIES FOUND A ALMOST FINISHED 12 PACK OF BEER IN THE COCKPIT.
the guy was DRUNK.
Perez is telling it like it is. Smoking is a HUGE risk factor for ALL KINDS of cancers, such as lung, colon, ovarian, liver cancer, just to name A FEW. Those who have done this since 1964, KNOW THE RISKS. THEY ARE ASKING FOR IT. YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW. It's the innocent caught around them that don't smoke that DIE or get asthma from it I feel for.
Find that hard to believe. He's an athlete, has been his whole life.
Find that hard to believe. He's an athlete.
wow, i smoke, and i still think that three packs a day is horrible
Smoking causes all types of cancer and if you don't believe that your fooling yourselves. I facilitated groups for people who wanted to quit and taught many classes on the subject. Good for you Perez for putting this on your website.
common, perezito, you - a preacher about whats right and wrong? get real. love you, but i don't think you wanna go there and be one of the haters. we all know the risks associated with smoking by now (except some people in west virginia) and we choose to do it anyway. it's a personal choice and the goverment should keep their filthy hands out of it. you too, perez. i mean, common perez, it's been shown obesity kills too, but yet here you are. love you, man. just stick to reporting about celebs.
Don't print this because it's not appropriate right now but I remember there were empty beer cans found all over that plane when he made the crash landing - it was widely reported. Though I would guess you already know this.
When looking at pancreatic cancer you need to be looking at the factor alcohol plays.
Okay Perez, here's the thing.
I appreciate your enthusasm for keeping the youth alive; however, smokers know the dangers involved. We are AWARE that it kills, we are AWARE it dramatically enhances the amount of mutagens we expose ourselves to.
But guess what?
We don't care. We just don't care. We're sick of hearing how bad it is. When people tell me that it's bad, I feel like blowing smoke in their face.
Re: opi – #140
If it's true, as you say, that "you reap what you sow," please tell me exactly what second hand victims have done to deserve being made sick by cigarette smoke. According to your argument, they must have done something!
Anyone under 50 who smokes is an idiot. Simple as that. You have to be literally RETARDED to think you're cool by indulging in something that not only hurts yourself, but hurts ANYONE IN YOUR VICINITY AND THE ENVIRONMENT. Retarded.
NEWSFLASH: I work in a funeral home. Everyone dies; smoker or not.
A huge percentage of posters here will die from cancer, a huge portion from heart disease, some in accidents and some from diabetes.
It's inevitable, folks.
Signed,
The
My mom died of pancreatic cancer and never smoked a single cigarette. She was the healthiest person I have ever met. although smoking is terrible and does lead to cancer. There needs to be more money raised for pancreatic cancer….It is a devastating, painful cancer and I wish celebrities would give it more attention and raise more money to find a cure. I miss my mother terribly! Thanks for providing your readers with statistics-awareness is key!
Smoking kills..But so car accidents, plane crashes, stupidity, angry muzlims, obesity, stress, to much sugar, too much coffee, red meat, white meat, alcohol, students with guns, diabetes, aids, angry husbands, bad doctors, a pregnacy going wrong, drunk drivers, medication, sciontology, electric chairs, poison, etc, etc, etc…Should I go on?
Smoking is soooooo freakin' nasty!!! Why would ANYONE want to suck on that shit??
And I just HATE when retards come out and say pancreatic cancer is not related to smoking. Don't be an idiot!! I am a pre-nursing student who is taking anatomy this semester, and one of our cadavers was a woman who smoked a lot and died of pancreatic cancer a few weeks after being diagnosed. I have seen the inside of her body where the cancer metastasized (basically it was every single organ in her body) and it is really gross and sad. There is a link, people!!!!! They don't call them cancer sticks for nothing!
It was not just the smoking, I was at his wrap party for "Christmas in Wonderland" here in Edmonton and he had half of Columbia's finest up his nose all night. Sorry to burst your bubble. Still feel sad for the guy and his family though.
Re: Oh Brother –
I always thougt that over- consumption of alcohol was one of the chief risk factors for pancreatic cancer. My stepfather got drunk everyday, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and was dead within a month.
Re: Kelly – - hey, kelly, dumbass. nice pasting job, but this is not wikipedia!!!
PEREZ QUIT LYING. THERE ISNT A SINGLE SCIENTIFIC STUDY PROVING THAT SMOKING IS BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH, YOU BIG FAT LYING QUEER. SO KNOW YOU FACTS BEOFRE YOU OPEN YOUR FAT MOUTH
Absolutely he is a horrible multi pack smoker, I know this first hand having worked at his PR firm. It is a disgusting habit. It is a horrible disease to have regardless of what kind of cancer, but if you bring upon yourself…. what can you expect? I feel for his family and friends, but he is the one who smokes, way too much.
"My friend Richard died of pancreatic cancer and didn't smoke" or "My mom died of pancreatic cancer and didn't smoke" or "My Uncle died of pancreatic cancer and didn't smoke" Blah, blah, blah blah.
Yes lots of people who don't smoke get cancer so that means that it's fine to smoke because you will get cancer anyway? Or that means that smoking doesn't cause cancer? I don't get it. What kind of logic is that?
Most everyone with a brain knows that if you smoke your odds of getting many different types of cancer increase greatly.
Kudos to Perez for sticking it to moron celebrities who smoke. They are role models for many kids and older people who think it's cool and OK to smoke because of them. If you don't think smoking contributes to many types of cancer you are deluded, delusional or simply in denial. In general, smoking causes cancer. It's a fact. Face reality dummies.
smoking is great!
Re: AnonymousPRchick –
Do people who walk around with cell phones glued to their ears all day deserve to get brain cancer, PRchick? According to your logic, they do!
I can't wait until this cunt dies! I hope it's really SLOW and painful. I want to piss on his grave while smking a pack of Luckies and drinking a 12 pack of PBR. You posters on here are a bunch of worthless fucktards who can't even pay your bills but spend HOURS here crying for rich douchebags like him! Assholes!
smoking and pancreatic cancer are unrelated. stick with what you know, moron.

No matter what I have loved Patrick for like 20 years. I am sad and my stomach hurts over this. I wish people would send good thoughts his way. Love to him and his wife.
People that smoke are above all STUPID, and also addicts. The Surgeon General's report on smoking came out in 1964! EVERYONE has known since then. It's IDIOTS like zero IQ hillbilly Britney Spears that smoke. I read she smoked 100 cigarettes a day already, which would make her a 4 pack a day smoker at 26. Don't cry for her Argentina when she gets cancer, COPD, emphasima, chronic bronchitis, etc. SHE KNEW THE RISKS AND DID IT ANYWAY.
Re: j – Of course you can smoke three packs of cigarettes a day. I've known people who smoked even more than that. They're all dead, though.
Re: Ry – Oh, good grief. Google is your friend.
wow, so sad… but thanks for that concern perez. its really an eye opener. though i stopped smoking a few years ago sometimes still feel tempted to try few sticks once in a while, but this is really a reminder!
wow, smoking kills? i had NO idea! we certainly are lucky to have this new research.
Re: opi –
To smoke 4 packs a day you'd have to always have a cig in the mouth. Oh, btw, did you know you can get cancer, emphazima, chronic bronchitis, heart disease, etc and never EVER smoke. Yep, the risks are higher but smoking is NOT the only things that causes it. Just for talkin shit, I bet you get the big C. And I don't smoke…..
I smoked on and off for a few years…Wellbutrin really helped me kick the nasty habit. I can't even look at a ciggy now without being grossed out.
I doubt I'll get the big C. I don't smoke, don't have friends who smoke. I'm only exposed going in buildings with the addicts all huddled at the entrances.
I saw a relative DIE of COPD complications after a minor heart attack. She had quit smoking, too late, the damage was done to her lungs. She could not stop coughing to get better after a VERY minor heart attact she was expected to survive, and never came out of the hospital again. She KNEW smoking is what killed her, and cursed those cigarettes she had quit while she was in intensive car.
Smoking is a disgusting, expensive addiction and the people who do it litter the environment with their damn ugly cig butts and ashes, and they smell like shit. I can smell a smoker from 5 feet away. They spend money for crap like cigarettes then bitch about health care expenses! Hypocritical assholes need to be put OUT of the insurance system. They poison their children's air, too, and then get upset their kids have runny noses and get sick. There is no excuse for being a smoker- their emphysema and disease costs us billions of dollars if they live into retirement age. Smoking kills. It rots gums and tongues and the chemicals it puts into your blood poisons and weakens organs. And those stinky finger and brown spit and coughing are lovely too. But you can always substitute that nasty mouth tobacco that is so gross, and you can spit the stinky brown slime onto the sidewalk for people to see. Barrrrfffff. If you spend money on cigarettes then you must be pretty rich because per pound, it costs more than almost anything else you could buy or do.
I'm sad to hear about Patrick Swaze. My mother died of pancreatic cancer and was also a heavy smoker. Despite the statement that he is 'responding well to treatment' don't be fooled. There is no cure for pancreatic cancer. It is fatal! Your pancrease is tied into every major organ in your body. Once you get it…that's all she wrote!
I watched my mom die this way and it is a horrible way to go!
You have to have something seriously wrong with you to smoke and damage your prescious lungs and overall health and yet so many stupid people do it.
That is such bullcrap, Perez! I know some of the people who were on site just minutes after that plane crashed near Prescott, AZ. Swayze paid people to take the empty alcohol bottles (and some full ones) from the site before authorities could arrive. He was DRUNK. Staggeringly drunk. Smoking is a horrific habit because it subjects other people to YOUR toxic habit INVOLUNTARILY — children being the smallest victims to this when parents light up, unconcerned about the consequences. But to say Swayze crashed because of smoking??? What are YOU smoking?
well all know SMOKING is TERRIBLE…Two of my grandparents died of pancreatic cancer…Neither one smoked.
Perez… Most likely …. Dosent read this Blog … Just prints what he think we want to hear. I dont really know …but Did you ever see his Myspace account ?….. Its well…. Kinda Rude….
I just read the new article in the National Enquirer on Swayze. It says the cancer has already spread rapidly to other organs. That's usually a death sentence…
Every person I have known who got pancreatic cancer was a smoker, every single one. Perez is correct.
If you wanna smoke go ahead….you know what the consequences are
BUT Has anyone noticed that people who smoke and drink coffee have the stankiest breath???? I had a friend in HS who smoke and drank coffee probly still does, if shes still alive and she was hilarious but maaaan her breath!
Get over yourself and have some grace. The world can draw its own cautionary inferences about the link between cancer and smoking. Your decision to MS Paint "sad" over a picture of a man fighting for his life, characterize his alleged behavior as "filthy" and then re-publish the specious and inflammatory Inside Edition story resonate as far more sanctimonious than sympathetic.
Sad!!!! Love this man. 2008 is getting off to a bad start. With Heath Ledger and Patrick…I mean ….these are two of the nicest looking, talented generally nice guys you'd ever want to be a fan of! WTF? For some reason God seems to be taking the best of us for the moment….wait wait wait! Cancel that idea! Patrick will fight this and mind power is something that can't be underestimated! keep Patrick in your prayers and don't count him out.
As Nikki Giovanni once said: There is nothing worse than a reformed prostitute.
so does over eating . you should think about that
Their breath does smell because of the toxins they are smoking in. It also causes major mouth, throat and lung problems, such as bleeding gums, teeth falling out, etc.
Dag, I'm smoking as I write this!!
Re: Mike – Smoking is a causative agent in pancreatic cancer. So is alcohol consumption. Cancers come in various forms. Lung cancer can be embyonal- that is hiding somewhere even at the time of the embryo being formed- or related to asbestos (mesothelioma), or cigarette smoking, etc. To say someone has lung cancer can mean many things. It's like driving a car- some people have wrecks and die, and some don't. It is a risk to drive- just as it is a risk to smoke or drink. It's a loose analogy but it works. There are lot of kinds of cancer cells and lots of causes. Lung cancer was a VERY rare disease in the 1800s. No longer. And you can thank the poisons in cigarette smoke for that.
Re: Laura –
That is pathetic. You are just saying that because you really DO feel like crap because you are addicted to something you cannot control. You care- you just can't stop. Glad you have so much money that you can burn it and smoke it.
I'm still looking to HOOK more ADDICTIVE SOULS to NICOTINE, better known as CANCER STICKS. Once I HOOK them it's almost over. Yeah, they try to stop but MY NICOTINE will keep them coming Back! You need my CANCER STICKS cause it makes you FEEL SO GOOD!
In the Enquirer article, it says Swayze is still such as heavy smoker that he had to go outside the hospital for cigarette breaks while getting chemotherapy.
I think it is great you are getting the word out to people.
If anything, good may come out of this because people may actually understand how bad smoking is.
yea… i was watching the news tonight & it was saying that he has pancreas cancer now too. but don't get to worried treatment is going well.
Yes true, but the 'cool club kids' want to stay skinny, and they keep smoking, but they get what's coming to them.
They also say, "well we're all gonna die anyway so i will keep smoking". Wait till you grow up and see how fast time goes by, and try saying that again,
My dad died of pancreatic cancer, he was not a smoker. Cancer is like spinning the big wheel of chance…..RIP Daddy
Re: opi – #175
Sorry to break this to you, but cancer is increasingly being linked to genetic factors. For instance, women whose mothers, grandmothers, sisters, etc., have died of breast cancer are now getting preventive mastectomies. Alzheimer's has also been linked to a specific gene. The same is proving true for more diseases everyday.
As it turns out, you can do everything right: eat well, exercise, limit your exposure to carcinogens, never smoke or drink, AND STILL GET CANCER. Certainly smoking increases the risk of developing the disease, but you shouldn't be so certain that you're immune. Fate often has a way of proving you wrong!
OK YOU DUMB FUCKS WHO THINK SMOKING "JUST CAUSES LUNG CANCER". I AM A 3RD YEAR MEDICAL STUDENT AND WE ARE ACTUALLY STUDYING ONCOLOGY RIGHT NOW (Oncology- the study of cancer. Just a little side note for those who's heads i am talking over)….
HERE IS A LIST OF JUST A FEW OF THE CANCERS THAT YOU HAVE AN INCREASED RISK FOR WHEN YOU SMOKE!….
1. LUNG
2. MOUTH
3. ESOPHAGUS
4. PHARYNX
5. PANCREAS
6. KINDEY
7. BLADDER
8. COLORECTAL
9. HEAD/NECK
10. PROSTATE
I don't care who you are, if you say you smoke 3 packs a day I would say you're a liar. I smoked 2 packs a day, and there was a fucking cig hanging out of my mouth at all FUCKING TIMES…there ain't no way anyone can smoke that many puffs in a day…75 cigs…com'on….BULL SHIT STORY
OBESITY IS A RISK FACTOR FOR PANCREATIC CANCER AS WELL. How would you like for someone to make a post like this about you one day. Leave him alone PLEASE!
Why doesn't it come up about his super bad alcoholism up until the past few years?! A friend who lives in Las Vegas, New Mexico and attended university there would ALWAYS see him in the dive bars (the only bars in Las Vegas, NM) drinking w/ the local town drunks, filthy and almost unrecognizable! this was in 2001. I went down to visit and right away he point Patrick out.
Granted Patrick was a very sweet man and would sign autographs for anyone that asked in between shots of ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that was set in front of him. This apparently went on for YEARS adn YEARS!!!
Btw, Las Vegas, NM is about 1/2 an hour from Santa Fe, NM…ask anyone from that area- they all have pictures of him!
THANK YOU for the list of ALL the cancers smoking can contribute to. I realize SOME cancers are genetically based. My relative's wasn't. Her sister who is ten years older than her is still alive, who didn't smoke. It was hell on earth to watch her suffer for each breath and try to do the breathing exercises on the "pump" thing they give her and hear her cursing for smoking that she had given up years before. She only had a 7-10 percent chance of dying the doctors told us from the initial mild heart attack, 10 days later, COPD complications caused her death. Smoking is as lethal as it gets.
