Patrick Swayze passed away from cancer today. I enjoyed a lot of his movies, like "Dirty Dancing" and "Road House". He was a talented guy.
My dad died of cancer (lymphoblastic lymphoma) at age 47 on this day 23 years ago.

I liked him in "North and South". Think I'll have to see it again.
I guess Dirty Dancing and Ghost were the pictures that everyone liked. I confess, I liked "Road House" which is a cult favorite of some. After "Ghost" he had his choices of scripts and picked poorly and faded in oblivion for a few years. Black dog was one of his comeback films that didn't do so well but it was about trucking and I couldn't help but like it , however improbable many of the happenings in the movie were.
Nobody puts baby in a corner -was that what he said to Jerry Orbach in dirty dancing?
For some reason , I was compelled to watch some clips from Road House last night on u-tube and remarked to myself, wow look at how young he was, but then again so was I .
And let's not forget the film "breakpoint" where he played a surfer/bank robber starring with Keanu reeves. Another cult favorite of some.
Rest in Peace, Patrick. Go into the light.
This is not what I needed to read today.
So my personal Pancreatic Cancer Scorecard takes another hit...
Sucks.
I have learned this lesson in my life.
Pancreatic Cancer and Ovarian Cancer - They get a score card.
They both are carpetbaggers that take residence in the still of the night.
When you figure it out...it is often too late.
Please take a quick look at this PSA.
I hate it because it is so damn true...
Dang, I liked him too and was hoping he'd survive - unrealistic maybe but I was hoping.
My dad died of cancer (lymphoblastic lymphoma) at age 47 on this day 23 years ago.
May He Rest in Peace. My wife thought the same thing 9/5.Wow, he was married for 34 years to a girl he met when he was 18. Not many Hollywooders can claim any sort of length in their marriages.
Gotta respect that.
Sorry to hear that Ms. ... that's too young and i know you've missed that time together.
Hoke

Damn.
Freaking cancer. I can't imagine how it was to watch your father battle such a vial invader at such a young age.
I pondered this today and you answered my question.
Do you ever forget the day a parent dies?
Pancreatic Cancer took my father.
Ovarian Cancer took my 15 year old cousin.
He is currently in ICU, and we are playing the waiting game.
