I know. I nearly cried this morning when DH told me. Love love love Patrick Swayze. Must have watched Roadhouse about 50 times.

I hope he recovers.

Cheers,

Another Patrick fan here ... so sad to read.

I love his performance in the movie with Rowan Aitkinson "Keeping Mum".
"Ghost" is my all-time favourite movie followed by "North and South" the TV series.

I hope he is able to beat this ... but the prognosis generally is not good. [sorry ... my nanna had this]

I was really upset when I heard the news on the radio this afternoon too I dont usually get upset about 'famous' people dying but this makes me really sad

Who didn't??? You and everybody else ... but then there is the scene in Ghost where Demi Moore is trying to mould the clay ... I sooooo would have loved that hug

ETA ... did you know that both he and his wife Lisa are professional ballet teachers? ... Lisa more so.

I was soooo in love with him as a teenager, I had teddy I named Patrick so I could cuddle him.
Wish him all the best.

Oh, that's awful.
I LOVE Dirty Dancing too, one of my all time faves.
He looks so lovely in that more recent photo with his wife, like he has aged gracefully.

Good healthy vibes being sent out to you Patrick!

That's really sad. I'm another who loved him in Dirty Dancing and Ghost. I pray that he'll be in that small percentage who recover.
