DESPERATELY ill actor Patrick Swayze looks just a shadow of his former self as he heads out for a spot of shopping. The 55-year-old, who is battling cancer, appeared grey and gaunt and even a pair of sunglasses could not hide the ravages of the disease and months of treatment.
Swayze, the star of Ghost and Dirty Dancing, has vowed to live as normal a life as possible and was pictured defiantly going to the shops near his ranch on the outskirts of Los Angeles.
A gaunt Patrick Swayze defiantly tries to live a normal life despite his frail appearance.
But reports suggest he is preparing for the end, apparently transferring his property worth millions to his wife of 32 years, Lisa Niemi.
A source said: "Patrick told Lisa, 'I will always love you, and can't imagine how my life would have been without you'. It was very touching, and it's part of his final farewell to his wife as the end draws closer."
Patrick, battling pancreatic cancer, has had emergency surgery - the cancer had spread and part of his stomach was removed.
His friend told a Sunday newspaper: "Patrick told his family he's not giving up, but he wanted to make sure everything like the will was in place in the event that his health began to fail quickly and he didn't have time to take care of things."
Patrick's Dirty Dancing co-star Jennifer Grey, 48 told The People: "I wish him all my love, and I have great faith that he is a fighter."
