Patrick Swayze has lost the battle against his cancer and died last night local time in Los Angeles with his family beside him. The actor who became famous for his role in “Dirty Dancing” became 57 years old. He suffered from pancreatic cancer, says his agent Annett Wolf.

When it became known that Swayze had cancer, he went full against it. Swayze still played the leading role in the new TV series ‘The Beast’ and worked with his wife on his memoirs. The star of the blockbuster movie ‘Dirty Dancing’ and ‘Ghost’ was told in March 2008 he had pancreatic cancer for several months. He vowed to fight against the disease and still hoped for a cure.

But Patrick recently received the bad news that the cancer had spread to his liver. The doctors told him that the end was near. Of course I’m scared and I keep wondering, “Why me, why does this happen to me?” And now I’m not through hell, I’ve only seen the beginning of it, “he said then.
The actor leaves behind a wife. He was barely eighteen when he met Lisa Niemi. The couple had been married for 34 years. They have no children. In 1991, Swayze was voted ’sexiest man in the world “. Today, he plunges the film world in mourning.

Well, I think I speak for everyone when I say, he was a great actor and he will be missed by a lot of people. Rest in peace Patrick!
