 Prayers for Patrick Swayze?
March 5, 2008 - 12:39pm — Mollee Francisco
The man who uttered those famous words "Nobody puts Baby in the corner" may have only weeks to live. The National Enquirer is reporting that Patrick Swayze, who starred in movies like "The Outsiders," "Ghost," "Road House "and (my all-time favorite) "Dirty Dancing," is losing a battle with pancreatic cancer. According to the magazine, Swayze has lost 20 pounds, is on a liquid diet and may only have five weeks to live. If it's true, it's heartbreaking news for avid "Dirty Dancing" fans like myself. I can't explain how fast and hard I fell for Johnny Castle (Swayze's character in Dirty Dancing) as a 10-year-old girl, but that celebrity crush is reignited every time I watch the movie. TELL US: What's your favorite Patrick Swayze movie? |

I hope the health rumors are just rumors.
"Dirty Dancing" is, by far, my favorite of his movies and I also love "Road House" and "Ghost." There are a lot more movies of his that I never saw but I would watch these three over and over again (and have).
