 September 2009 -- Remember the guy from the famous love story, "Ghost"? The guy who made us all girls cry hard until the end of the film? How could i ever forget him? "Ghost" is one of my fave movie of all time. The guy with his famous talking eyes is Patrick Swayze. As we all know, he has been sick of certain illness which causes him to loose weight tremendously. Now the long battle ended, Hollywood actor Patrick Swayze, best known for his roles in the hit films "Dirty Dancing" and "Ghost," died because of pancreatric cancer according to the publiscist last Monday. The actor was already in advanced stage-four last January 2008 which means only 1 

percent chances of survival for him. However despite such conditions, the actor bravely fought the disease and even continues to work despite continuous treatments. Last  January he bullishly declared that he was determined to beat his condition and stated that "Hope is a very, very fragile thing in anyone's life and the people I love do not need to have that hope robbed from them when it's unjustified and it's untrue," Swayze said.
