Patrick Swayze - great force and huge inspiration



Patrick Swayze made a surprise appearance to EIF "Stand Up To Cancer" fund-raising special. He`s not just one of my favorite actors, but one of my favorite men in this world. A truly gifted person, a great dancer, a human force and a very sensitive artist.I can only wish him health and like many people close to him have said, If there`s anyone that can beat this terrible disease, that person is surely Patrick. The actor diagnosed with pancreatic cancer earlier this year attended the event with his wife Lisa Niemi as always, by his side. Swayze smiled and danced, did a solo moment guitar and chatted with Fran Drescher and other cancer survivors. The Stand Up to Cancer, charity event that's raising money to fight the disease benefited the presence of a huge list of celebrities, among them : Casey Affleck, Christina Applegate, Lance Armstrong, Josh Brolin, Jennifer Aniston, Dana Delany, Fran Drescher, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Christina Ricci, Salma Hayek,Meryl Streep,Scarlett Johansson,Hilary Swank,Goran Visnjic, Jessica Alba, Charlize Theron, Halle Berry, Keanu Reeves and so much more. Some of the biggest names in the music industry, like Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Rihanna or Fergie, performed the charity single "Just Stand Up," which benefits Stand Up to Cancer. But back to my reason of this post,Noreen Fraser, one of the show's producers and a stage-four breast cancer survivor told People magazine about Swayze`s surprise show up : "I just had to thank him for his appearance. His appearance put this event over the top." Swayze`s response was: 'There was no way I was going to say no to this.' " The actor is doing well, he`s continuing his treatment and he`s even back to work. We`re praying for you, Patrick!
