Patrick Swayze's health failing quickly

The Dirty Dancing and Ghost star, who in January was told he had pancreatic cancer, has started preparing himself for death, reports say .

"Patrick recently got word that the cancer had spread to his liver and that is what his doctors said would begin the countdown to the end," a source told National Enquirer magazine.

"Patrick knew it was coming because he was suffering increased weakness.

"At times, he was so weak that he could barely walk without feeling faint. Sometimes he feels out of breath and has to sit down."

Swayze, 56, told Lisa, his wife of 33 years, and his brother Donny that he doesn't have long to live.

Well, that is just a sad thing. When pancreatic cancer hit my fathers liver many years ago, the resulting change in his physical appearance was so shocking that it took my breath away. My heart goes out to the Swayze family.

Patrick has given a lot of enjoyment to others over the years in his choice of movies to participate in. Thank you for that Patrick and may God bless you now and your family now and later. You will be remembered with affection by many.

I lost my father to pancreatic cancer 4 years ago and understand how the family is feeling and I and my partner send our utmost condonanices to all of Patricks family. Sounds to me hes a good guy, father, and husband and obviously a brilliant actor.....
