Swayze, star of Dirty Dancing, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and has had many people sending him warm wishes.
Swayze’s mother took his defense and told the National Enquirer. “He doesn’t deserve to get this. He’s got such a big heart. He’s been such a good and generous and thoughtful person. It breaks my heart to know he’s suffering," explained his mother.
Patsy Swayze confirmed that her son is determined to fight the disease. “He’s hanging in there and getting the best treatment he can.”
