Patrick Swayze responding well to treatment for pancreatic cancer

Posted on April 8th, 2008 by Hot Momma

According to his doctor, Patrick Swayze has had an “excellent” response to treatment for pancreatic cancer. His physician, Dr. George Fisher, has said:

“Patrick Swayze continues to respond well to his treatment for pancreatic cancer. Because of his excellent response, he will continue the same therapy at Stanford.”

Swayze, 55, came clean about his ordeal after the Enquirer had run articles that he had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, one of the most serious of the cancers. He has been undergoing chemotherapy but not radiation treatment, according to his rep. Swayze and wife Lisa Niemi told People Magazine.

“We’re thrilled and grateful for the positive response Patrick has shown towards his treatment,”

“Also, we can’t help but feel that all the prayers, meditations and good thoughts sent his way by everyone has made a difference. Thank you!” said the couple.
