Nobody Puts Baby in a Corner!

Is is sad that I am reduced to tears by a Barbara Walters special about Patrick Swayze?  I loved Dirty Dancing and Ghost.  Who knew that a cheesy line from Ghost could reduce the actor himself to tears - he got all teary in an earlier interview when they showed the clip with the line about taking love with you when you go.  I have to say that I am truly in awe of the fact that he lasted 20 months with a diagnosis of Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer with metastisis to the liver.  The average person with that same diagnosis lasts 6-8 weeks at the most.  My grand-dad lasted 7 weeks.
