Update on Patrick Swayze


A few stories ago, we reported that there were rumors about Patrick Swayze taking a turn for the worse and his pancreatic cancer spreading to his liver. Well, Mr. Swayze himself has decided to tell People magazine the truth from the proverbial horse's mouth, and he's still kicking ass and taking names!!

Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive disease and from the moment I was diagnosed, I knew I was in for the fight of my life. It's a battle, and so far, I've been winning. I'm one of the lucky few that responds well to treatment. [The only thorn in my side are the tabloids and how] reporting that I'm on my last legs and saying goodbye to my tearful family! [It's] upsetting that the shoddy and reckless reporting from these publications cast a negative shadow on the positive and good fight I'm fighting. For me, my family, and those close to me, it amounts to downright emotional cruelty. That makes me angry when hope is so precious.

YES! Nobody puts Swayze in a corner!!
