    In September 2009 movie star Patrick Swayze lost his long and bravely fought battle against pancreatic cancer. Dedications soon came flooding in from Swayze's many friends in film and television as well as from his legions of adoring fans. His was a life richly led and this memoir completed just weeks before his death is a testament to the strength and passion of this remarkable man. It was January 2008 when Patrick Swayze was given the worst news of his life. What he hoped was just a stomach ache was actually stage four pancreatic cancer. This book isn't just the story of Patrick's fight against cancer. In the public eye from the early 1980s this is the story of a remarkable life and career. Intended as a low budget straight-to-video production Dirty Dancing became a cult hit and remains one of the most enduring films of the 80s. Ghost cemented Patrick as a hugely bankable star in a role that has had a considerable cultural impact. Most recently Patrick returned to the public's adoring arms in TV's The Beast. This book will chronicle Patrick's personal life too -- including his treatment for alcoholism following the death of his father and sister's sudden death.What remained a constant in Patrick's life was his marriage and Patrick and Lisa's love story is inspiring honest heartfelt and transcends the typical celebrity marriage. This is a book that anyone who has faced cancer or a terminal illness can turn to: Lisa and Patrick have shown the world that cancer isn't just a diagnosis given to one individual but a disease that can bring a household together or pull a family apart. Bold honest and inspiring Patrick Swayze's memoir is the story of a remarkable man's life and career and of his refusal to give up without a fight.
