Patrick Swayze ‘To Sign Do Not Resuscitate Order’

Posted by Richard Head

Saturday April 18, 2009

Patrick SwayzePatrick Swayze has decided to sign a “Do Not Resuscitate” order and will stop all chemotherapy treatments, according to a new report.

The Dirty Dancing star — who is battling pancreatic cancer — is apparently getting his affairs in order as he faces the end.

“What can anyone say? Patrick has fought the good fight,” an insider said. “He probably realizes there’s nothing else his doctors can do.

“He has always been a realist, and even though he was fighting for his life with everything he had in him, he knows he’s lived much longer than expected.

“He said he has to accept the outcome so he can help prepare his family and enjoy quality time with them, and then die peacefully when the time comes.

“Patrick says it is hard to watch someone you love die, so he’s trying to do this as peacefully and lovingly as possible.

“He said the only thing you can do when you have no control is to accept it, deal with it and help your loved ones. It’s his gift to them – to make sure they know he’s at peace. After going through the stages of disbelief, self-pity and anger, he is finally at acceptance.

“Patrick will go forward with a ‘Do Not Resuscitate’ order.’

Such an order requires doctors to let him die — not put him on life support — if he should stop breathing or if his heart stops.

“I don’t think Patrick wants the people who love him to agonize over that decision,” the insider added. “Patrick is an amazing example of grace, dignity and honesty.”

    Please Mr.Swayze,
    If you do not know The LORD JESUS CHRIST as your SAVIOUR, i beg you sir, don’t wait to ask HIM into your heart. It will be the difference between eternal life and eternal death. I pray that you have already done this, but if not please don’t wait.

    Still praying,

    Just pray that he doesn’t die in pain, skip the holy roller crap.

    him this in the first place! Poor Patrick.

  • Marie Chaplan

    Patrick, my love…you are a true inspiration to us all. The way you have handled this dreadful cancer has been with such dignity and grace. I pray for a miracle. I believe they do happen and that you get one. I’m not oblivious to the fact though that this cancer is THE WORST. I just know there are medical advances all the time and I try to be hopeful and positive in this horrific ordeal that you have been dealt. God Bless you and your family at this time.

  • Elena

    This is for those who don’t know about God and his word, God does not give us illness or diseases, we as natural human beings bring ourselfs to sickness by the things we do, and by our sins we die, because is the law of the God, if we had not done in the begining what we did, we could have being living eternaly. You need to read the word to understand some things that are hard to understand and deal with, I know that we all think why if theres a God there are so many bad things happening in the world. It is not a doing of God, it is the evil that makes these things happen. And yes God makes some things happen in the world like when noah had to make a boat and put some creatures and humans in it because the lord was going to destroy the land to begin again, but God doesn’t give us diseases or sickness we bring that into our lives, but the ones that are living by his word will not perish, If you believe there is a God, then you have to believe there is an enemy.

    God bless my beloved Patrick

    People STOP saying goodbye to Patrick my God, he is ill not dead yet. You don’t know what turn he can make, God is vast and he does what no man can do. DON’t say to Patrick things that mean he is already dead.

    Patrick keep fighting till what ever God decides

    If you have read my comments before, you will know who i am, thelady who send you a scarf.

    love you dearly

  • L Elliott

    I am very sorry to hear you are ill, myself and thousands of other people have grown up watching you and respecting your very talented contribution to television, you have been a part of peoples lives and will continue to entertain years into the future,
    I would respectfuly agree on patricks decision, his decision is his own to make, but personnaly I won’t give up hope for him, sometimes people do recover, my kind thoughts are with you and your family..

  • Goodbye Patrick

    Elena you are an idiot, take off your rose colored glasses. When they tell you in about two weeks or so that he died, WE TOLD YOU SO! Stop all this gobbledeegook and just pray that he doesn’t die in pain. And I bet if you talked to Patrick he’d tell you that he is mad, angry and everything else and who can blame him. He’s too young to die, but he is and will very soon.

  • Goodbye Patrick

    The fact that Patrick is signing a do not resuscitate order confirms what he already knows and has come to terms with. Leave him alone and I hope the media stops taking pics of him like this.

  • Kelly

    Elena said “if you believe there is a God you must believe there is an enemy” WTF??? You’re nuts! You make no sense.

    #1. Patrick is going to die VERY soon.
    #2. People are saying goodbye because THEY are realistic.
    #3. People that have lived by God’s word parish every day.
    #4. Patrick is NOT a fool and knows it will happen.

    Patrick you will be missed but will live on in your movies. Thank you for the entertainment you have given us thru the years.

  • Elena

    PATRICK AND LISA, YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHILE PATRICK IS STILL ALIVE TO FREEZING HIS BODY TILL THERES’ A CURE TO THIS DISEASE….LIKE WALT DISNEY DID…

    LOVE YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU

    Dear Mr. Swayze,
    Words cannot express the heartfelt anguish I experienced when I watched the Babara Walters interview last Fall. I have been fervently praying for you since. There are so many things that are uncertain in this world, but I pray that God’s deep love for you will become real to you if it has not yet. Psalm 139:13 describes our relationship with God..”For You did form my inward parts; You did knit me together in my mother’s womb. vs. 15..”My frame was not hidden from You when I was being formed in secret intricately and curiously wrought…Your eyes saw my unfromed substance, and in Your book all the days of my life were written before ever they took shape, when there was yet none of them.” Please read or have someone read to you Romans 10:9 and confess Jesus as Lord before leaving this earth. I pray you are confident of where you will spend eternity and are able to release any anger, bitterness or unforgiveness. This life on earth is not fair..I’m so sorry for your suffering. Jesus suffered and died on the cross for you to live in heaven for eternity. “If you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and in your heart believe that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9) Thank you for the inspiration and example that you are to all of us. May God’s peace fill you and His mercy be upon you. You, your wife and family will be in my prayers. Thank you for reading this.
    Diana

  • Elena

    YES I AM AN IDIOT TO YOU, AND I DON’T CARE, WATCH THE MOVE “THE SECRET” IT MAKES ALOT OF SENSE WHEN YOU SEE AND HEAR WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY. YOU PEOPLE ARE KILLING HIM ALREADY WHEN HE IS STILL NOT DEAD. HOPE IS THE LAST THING ANYONE SHOULD LOSE, HOPE IS WHAT KEEPS PEOPLE ALIVE IN DARK MOMENTS. REALISTIC YES, WE ARE GOING TO DIE WHO SAID WERE NOT. BUT WE CAN STILL HAVE HOPE AND FAITH, MAYBE IT IS HIS TIME TO GO, BUT ONLY GOD KNOWS THIS.

    AND WHEN A PERSON IS AN THE EDGE OF HIS LIFE AND HIS LOOKING FOR SOME KIND OF HOPE, I BELIEVE THAT HE WILL REALY IN ANYTHING THAT CAN KEEP HIM FROM DYING. REALISTIC AND NOT. WE ARE MADE FROM THIS EARTH AND WHO MADE IT WAS A VAST NATURAL FORCE. I BELIEVE THAT ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. AND THIS IS ONE OF MY THOUGHTS.

    PATRICK AND LISA, YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHILE PATRICK IS STILL ALIVE TO FREEZING HIS BODY TILL THERES’ A CURE TO THIS DISEASE….LIKE WALT DISNEY DID…

    LOVE YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU

    ELENA TOLEDO

  • Goodbye Patrick

    Elena, you’re showing that you don’t know anything, Walt Disney did NOT freeze his body, that was a myth that was going around. Besides, even IF patrick were to freeze his body and a cure was found….IT’S TOO EFFIN LATE!! Wake up you fool! Looney Toon!
    God isn’t the only one that knows it’s Patricks time, Patrick and THE REST OF THE WORLD WHO ISN’T LOONEY knows it too!

  • Goodbye Patrick

    Patrick himself knows he’s dead and that is why he’s signing a “do not resuscitate” order, you idiot.

  • Kendra

    Elena, you really are making yourself sound foolish, Patrick knows his time here on earth is over, get a grip. And the above person is correct, Walt Disney did NOT freeze his body. You need to know what you’re talking about before you open your mouth. All this holy stuff is really very boring, and Patrick isn’t even going to read it so you’re wasting your useless breath.

  • MaryAnn

    Elena, you seriously need to sit back and realize that Patrick will die any day from this horrible disease. We all will miss him but freezing is not going to help him, Walt Disney did not freeze his body that was just a rumor. And, I have to agree with the others, you do sound foolish. lol

  • Michael

    To Elena, Walt Disney didn’t freeze his body, it’s a rumor.
    Why can’t you accept the fact that Patrick is going to die any day, he has accepted it. All hope is now out the window for Patrick and even he has come to terms with it. We will miss him and he knows it.

  • Michelle Goad

    God does not give people diseases. Our earthly bodies are not perfect and we are appointed once to die. Patrick has been a model for publicly dealing with his illness most courageously which can be a testimony to others. It’s not the perfect life that others take note, but when something goes wrong they sure want to see how one handles it. God Bless you Patrick. You have shown us what it is to “fight the good fight.” Fondly thinking of you and praying for your comfort and peace.

  • Marcy

    Goodbye dear patrick. You will be missed.

  • Elena

    OK,I READ ABOUT THE MYTH OF WALT DISNEY, AND I READ TOO ABOUT OTHER FAMOUS PEOPLE WHO DID FROZE THEIR BODY, YEARS AFTER THE DEATH OF WALT, AND IT IS TRUE ABOUT FREEZING YOUR BODY TILL THERES A CURE, I AM NOT AN IDIOT, MAYBE I DON’T KNOW MUCH ABOUT HISTORY AND OTHER, BUT I READ IT WHEN I WAS SEARCHING FOR FACTS OF WALT. AND YES IT CAN BE DONE. PATRICK IS DYING AND HE MIGHT HAVE THIS CHANCE EVEN IF THEY SAY IT WOULD BE HARD TO MAKE THESE BODIES TO REVIVE FROM BEEN FROZEN. WELL IT WAS JUST A THING I HAD IN MIND. EVERYONE IS VERY NEGATIVE HERE. YOU DON’T HAVE TO OFFEND PEOPLE TO SHOW THEY ARE WRONG OR THAT YOU DON’T AGREE WITH THEM. I HAVE NOT OFFENDED ANYONE HERE.

    ANYWAYS GOD BLESS YOU ALL

    AND I HOPE YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO THROUGH SUCH AN ILLNESS THE DAY YOUR TIME COMES. HOPE IS HOPE, AND EVEN THOUGH HE IS DYING I CAN STILL HOPE, BECAUSE I AM FREE TO WHAT EVER I WANT TO FEEL AND BELIEVE. SO PLEASE DO NOT JUDGE PEOPLE JUST BECAUSE YOU DON’T AGREE, AND GOD IS NOT BORING, WAIT TILL YOU HAVE A REAL SAD MOMENT OF GRIEF IN YOUR LIFE, THEN YOU WILL WANT TO RELAY ON SOME KIND OF HOPE. EVEN WHEN YOU MIGHT NOT EVEN BELIEVE IN HIM.

    GOD BLESS YOU
    PLEASE DON’T JUDGE ME ANYMORE, I DO UNDERSTAND THE ONES THAT DON’T BELIEVE IS SUCH THINGS AS MIRACLES AND GOD.

    I AM SORRY FOR EVERYTHING

    BLESSINGS
    ELENA

  • Joey Smith

    There is no life after death you imbeciles.

  • Vivian

    Elena, freezing a body that has already been eaten apart by disease will not do any good at all. You may find a cure but you can’t repair the organs that have been eaten away by disease.

  • Angleica

    Seek the Lord Jesus Christ with all your heart, mind, body, and soul. Ask for his mercy. Do not make a decision about your eternal life without getting all the information.

  • Elena

    To do this I thought is was if you are sick with a terminal disease that they freeze your body before you die, and then if theres a cure get you out of this freezing state and cure you, thats how i see it. Well i don’t know anything about these things but I heard it like this.

    blessings to all

    Thank you Angelica.

    Sir:

    It’s probably too late, but it’s worth a shot. Below is a link to a doctor that has miraculous results curing late stage prostate cancer. He cured my brother-in-law’s brother. It’s expensive and the regimen is bland, but it worked for him. He’s now completely clean and that is after his first diagnosis was terminal.

  • Larry

    Oh, I’m SURE Patrick will get right on that, LOL
    You are all foolish people. Even if they freeze his body before he dies, he STILL has NO pancreas or liver and it has spread to other parts of the body in which you can NOT do anything about it freezing or no freezing, this is a STUPID idea, GET REAL people, and as for Elena, I pray that you grow a brain.

  • Sheri

    ALL HOLY ROLLERS LEAVE THIS SITE AND GO TO A HOLY FREAK SITE AND LEAVE US PATRICK FANS TO TALK ABOUT PATRICK AND NOT SILLY CRAP SUCH AS FREEZING. IT’S ONLY A MONEY SCAM!! WAKE UP FOOLS. Elena you really do sound like a weirdo. Go back to the planet you came from.lol

  • Michael

    Elena,
    Wow your so right about us bringing on our own illness. Shame on the 4 year old child that gets Luciemia .

  • Elena

    Larry, thank you for been so sinsetive and wanting me to get sick. In the other hand I don’t wish anything to happen to you. I hope your life is filled with alot of happiness and joy throughout the years.

    God bless you

    Hi,

    I have been reading some of the comments and I get really worried when I see so much faith is put into a fairy tale. I like Patrick Swayze as an actor, in view of the fact I don’t know him personally. Although I wish I did because he seems some sort of gutsy bloke. Good luck to you for the rest of the time you have left, let’s hope it is as painless and easy as it can be. No one deserves this sort of illness, I have lost several relatives through one form or other of this disease and I hope it doesn’t get me but if it does I only hope I can show half the fortitude that is being displayed by Patrick. I suppose if BLIND faith gives an individual the strength to accept these sort of challenges then one fairy tale is a good as any other so if it helps, have a chat with “Big G”, but I suspect Mickey Mouse is equally as powerful.

  • Donna

    Patrick, If you are reading this I am with the lady at the top you know we all never know how we will act UNLESS it happens to us.
    I can say yes there is a HEAVEN and yet a HELL. I know it test so many things in us. I also know your peace will be awesome if you let Jesus come in. I am a Christian. I am not here to judge just tell you the way I have seen it. I have seen non – christians die people listen they go in such a terrible way they scream. I have in turn seen born again christain’s go in s PEACEFUL way. I am telling you ,you could feel the ANGEL’S in the room.

    Patrick god bless you and your family!

    Will you lot stop bickering and carrying on! It’s not seemly and VERY Immature!

    Poor old Patrick is gravely ill and all some of you can think of is forwarding your own agendas, I for one think that it’s very very sad when you can’t leave the guy alone to live his remaining time in peace and dignity…

    Patrick mate, I hope your time left with us is full of love and comfort, that you do not suffer too much and that when it comes, the end is peacful, quiet and dignified.

    You’ve made some bloody good films which have entertained me and mine no end and for that I say “Thank You”

  • Larry

    Elena I never wished you sick, obviously you can’t read I never said that anywhere in my post.

  • Sandy

    Elena, we don’t bring sickness on our self, what about the poor children with cancer? What did they ever do to deserve this? Your being selfish in your posts. How rude of you to say that children bring this on themselves, or the adults that didn’t drink/smoke that suddenly got sick, how rude and insensitive of you!

  • Philipa

    Dear Patrick You know what you’re doing,cause you suffered so much with this Evil C,but you kept and by what I know you are keep fighting agains’t IT.
    To us You are going to leave not only your Fabulous movies,series on TV like “North and South”,Your recent one ” THE BEAST”that you filmed before and after You were Diagnosed with this evil C that nobody in the whole wide World deserves to have;You are going to leave us with Your Kindness,Your Way to Be,and Your Strongest Way of Fighting as You has and still doing since First You were diagnosed with this C,and all the Admiration for the Way you have been Fighting It,that is a Huge Example for a lot of People who suffers as You Are,and for Everyone in this world really!!
    We are going to Miss You Very Much,and You Always will BE in our Prayers,and Forever in Our Hearts.
    I still Pray (as I Always did) for You to beacome Better,or When time comes that Be Very Peacefully and with no Pain at All.I also Pray to God give to All Your Family a lot of Strenght at This Very Difficult Time,and Forever!
    May God Bless You and All Your Family
    Love

  • Lisa

    All I can say is shame on all of you who used this venue to bicker, fight, and call each other names. I am just sickened and embarrassed that anyone would do such a thing. I sincerely hope that the Swayze family doesn’t read 3/4ths of the comments on here. I applaud Mr. Swayze’s courage, integrity and strength – especially at a time when anyone would forgive him for acting otherwise. We should ALL behave in such a dignified manner, and with such grace. I sincerely wish and hope for the best for Mr. Swayze, whatever the outcome may be.

  • Gisela

    Mr. Swayze, you will always be in my heart!
    Thank you for being such an inspiration. I have been a great fan of yours ever since I was a kid, and always will be.

  • Elena

    Larry I just read your comment, and i saw the words, “I pray you grow a brain”. I took it the wrong way maybe, but I don’t need really to grow a brain, i have a brain is just not like yours, maybe you are more realistic than I am thats all. Larry i want to get this opportunity to tell you that some here didn’t understood me, I was just saying here my thoughts, I take bible classes and thats where I have learned some stuff, that i really get confuse with it. But i just try to get what i think is good for myself. I was very sick a long time ago with lupus and i just gave myself to God like christians do, because my life was an the edge. And i thought i was doing good by talking about God here. I love patrick so very much, his movies always made me sigh, I pray for him everytime i get the chance. It breaks my heart to see him, because i was sick very sick, i lost my hair and weight too, i was in 87 pounds, I just wish like all his fans that love him that he wasn’t passing through this evil and devastating sickness.

    I can imagine what he and his family are going through.

    Larry I am a good person, and I just wanted to do good.

    Thanks for everything

    God bless you

    Elena
    and again I’m sorry

  • http://www.hisgloryforever.com Barbara

    Patrick and Lisa,
    There are many people out there that love you. Simply put, Patrick, you are one amazing fellow. I watched you in Dirty Dancing over 50 times and still watch you in all your other movies.
    The fight you are in now is for your life. I want you to ask yourself one question. If you were to pass away tonight, Patrick, do you know where you would be going? Asking the Lord Jesus Christ to come into your life takes a matter of minutes but the results are eternal. Please think about this.
    Lisa, keep the strength and trust in the Lord to sustain both you and Patrick during this time. Psalm 91 has always been a favorite of mine. I love you both and I pray God will bless you with strength and good spirits for the days ahead of you.
    With love and admiration,
    Barbara

  • nancy

    I love you Patrick and I enjoyed all your movies. You are a wonderful person. I am so glad that you went into entertainment business because you are fantastic. God Bless YOU! Love, Nancy

  • Latoya

    Dear Patrick Swayze, I have been a fan of yours since the days of Road House and you still are the sexiest man in the world to me. I pray for you and your family. i appreciate all the entertainment that you have given me. You will forever be in my thoughts and prayers. We as people tend to ridicule one another for their own personal opinions because they are not to our liking, but the reality lies when I tell you Patrick, when you feel comfortable enough, knowing that your family is ok and that you have made peace with whatever God that you worship, then you can free yourself and rid yourself of pain. It is evident that you are tired now and you know more than the rest of us and the final decision lies with you and your Lord. You lived a good life, a life that you should be proud of and if it is meant for you to continue living in body rather than soul, then you will, but if you’re tired and are ready to make that transition, then make peace with the ones you should, relax and let go. It will be alright!!! God Bless you and your family. Amen

    No One Put Baby In a Corner……….

    She’s Like The Wind Lyrics

    She’s like the wind through my tree
    She rides the night next to me
    She leads me through moonlight
    Only to burn me with the sun
    She’s taken my heart
    But she doesn’t know what she’s done

    Feel her breath on my face
    Her body close to me
    Can’t look in her eyes
    She’s out of my league
    Just a fool to believe
    I have anything she needs
    She’s like the wind

    [SOLO]

    I look in the mirror and all I see
    Is a young old man with only a dream
    Am I just fooling myself
    That she’ll stop the pain
    Living without her
    I’d go insane

    Feel her breath on my face
    Her body close to me
    Can’t look in her eyes
    She’s out of my league
    Just a fool to believe
    I have anything she needs
    She’s like the wind

    Feel your breath on my face
    Your body close to me
    Can’t look in your eyes
    You’re out of my league
    Just a fool to believe
    (Just a fool to believe)
    She’s like the wind

    I’ll always have fond memories of you and the smiles you put on my face. I always remember the innocence of youth and first love when I see this movie and hear this song!!!You are an amazing man…Don’t ever forget that!!!!No matter what happens, you are adored by so many!! xoxoxo

  • Larry

    Elena, I too am sorry and God bless you too.

  • James Cornell

    Jesus is the only way to God.

  • Elena

    Very much adored by many of us.

    I do too love “she’s like the wind”
    adore that song. It is so romantic and dreamy.
    I dream of a prince and thats Patrick. His my prince.

    poem for patrick

    To Patrick Swayze

    I want to remember you as you
    were the first time I saw
    you acting in a performing role,

    The role that captured the
    hearts of many souls,
    you gave the best ,
    you had the charms,
    an angels touch,

    You were the thieve of hearts,
    that kept bringing our sigh
    to another level,
    you were the dancer
    the strong and
    yet gentleman.

    Charming like a fairytale
    prince, the object
    the verb the noun,
    the perfect fit for a romantic scene,
    for a gentle role,

    Your pace,
    the sound of your voice so
    unique,
    your meekness eyes,
    you had it all.

    The charms the gentleness,
    it is you,
    you who gave my younger
    years special
    memories to a moment
    never forgotten,

    Like an angel of light,
    always giving us
    the best of you.

    And I called you the
    prince of spotlight,
    for I remember you like the
    first time I saw your face.

    And this sweet visage of you will
    never leave my eyes.

    Lovely and tender heart of yours.
    Stay with us, don’t depart not yet.

    Hi Patrick – So many people love you just the way you are. So does your loving Savior, Jesus. I pray that as you journey through the rest of your life, you accept God’s grace and the hope of eternal life. If you haven’t done this yet, please ask Jesus into your heart and accept His gift of eternal salvation. It is never too late to do this. Peace be with you and your family.

    I’m not going to say something that you already have heard,
    I love life and at the same time think, well this is an important part of life that we ignore. Most take life for granted,
    most think they have too make a mark on the world and be successful, have the most be the best have a lot of money bla bla bla ; but what really matters is how we treat others

    To: Patrick and Wife
    My heart is heavy knowing that all good things must come to an end. Have always admired you. My favorite movie is Ghost. I believe that you will find confort when that time come because your father will be there for you so you won’t have to be afraid. Continue to live every day as if it was your last. Glad you have a strong and loving wife to be by your side.

    God Bless
    Gwen and Family

    I left Patrick a letter several weeks ago, I too, was supose to have died in 1991, but it was Gods will for me to live. Don’t never say there is power in prayer, for it is what makes this world a better place and God will have his way. I have to say, I never heard Patrick say anything on embreonic stem cell research..Hollywood is using that as the “miracle drug” and the fountain of youth..but remember, you have to destroy life to get the cells..which God will hold everybody that is responsible that took the babies lives..God said,”even before you was in your mothers womb, I knew you”,,So I say again, Take you prayer to the most almighty God, you might get a miracle, if not, and you have lived your life like God would have you, then you are heaven bound..so fear not my friend !!

    God is real, and Patrick might die, because miracles DO happen.
    And where Patrick stands we will soon stand, we’re all just human.
    May Patrick have much love, peace and happiness for the rest of his life, wether it’s short or long, and may God be with us all!!

    FREEZING HIS BODY?? ARE YOU DUMB AS A PILE OF S*** OR WHAT!! PLUS IF THAT WAS POSSIBLE…. UGHH GOD,I MAY AS WELL SMASH MY HEAD INTO SOMETHING, THAT WAS THE DUMBEST CRAP I HAVE READ.. OK, YOU CANT DO THAT, THINGS DONT FREEZE AT ALL THE SAME TEMPERATURES ANYWAYS. I FEEL WE’D BE DOING THAT TO ALOT MORE PEOPLE IF IT WAS POSSIBLE. I HATE SEEING HIM DIE, IT’S SO SAD. I CAN’T DO ANYTHIGN ABOUT IT EXCEPT HOPE THAT SOMETHING CHANGES AND AT LIGHTENING SPEED, BUT I HAVE TO BE REALISTIC, I KIND OF DONT THINK IT WILL, BUT WOULDNT IT BE GREAT. I’D LIKE TO READ OR SEE SOMETHING THAT SAYS, PATRICK MADE IT!! I AM SO SAD TO SEE THIS..

    Dear Mr. Swayze,
    I hope that you realize that you have set an example for others in framing the cycle of life. You have shown courage, you have shown resilience, you have shown tenacity and the fearless demeanor of a human being in love with life. You walk in grace sir and I hope that all who watch your battle take example. I wish you meaning in all its complexity, I wish you a better day or an hour. I wish you victory this day and in all coming days.

    Patrick,

    Belive that Jesus is the son of the living God,and go to the Church of Christ and get baptized there for remission of sins and to be added to the Lords Church the only Church that Christ EVER built “The Church of Christ” only then will you be Saved.

    You must be baptized to reach Jesus blood the blood is in the water which will cleanse you of all sins!

    The Church of Christ is heretical. Stop spreading bad doctrine.

    Baptism doesn’t save you. It is faith in Christ alone (Eph 2:8-9). If a religious act could save you, then Christ died in vain (Gal 2:21). Baptism is public identification with Jesus. An outward display of the inward reality. Stop taking a couple of verses out of their context. The Bible is painfully clear salvation is through trust in Jesus Christ to pay your sin debt. Not religious exercise. He wants your heart.
