Patrick Swayze

[Troy Spiral (13)]

Patrick Swayze's pancreatic cancer is clearly exacting a heavy toll on the ailing star.

A rail thin Swayze, now virtually bald having lost his hair as a result of treatment, looked a shadow of his former self during an outing in Los Angeles.

With his clothes hanging from his reduced frame, the actor was barely recognisable as he walked to his car.

The 56-year-old edged along the roadside, gripping hold of a nearby post for support as his brother Don waited in a car park to take him to an appointment.

Hard to believe this was Darry Curtis in The Outsiders or Jed in Red Dawn.

This must be terrible for him, as well as his family. I've always been a fan of his.

I can't believe how much the disease has aged him.

[Oh_My_Goth]

He was always so lively.. It is so sad to see him like that.

[Onyx]

wow. He looks like he's in his 70s. Pretty fast downhill spiral for him.

I watched an interview a few months back and he looked very healthy. It's too bad he has gotten this so very young, but he has led a very satisfying productive life, accomplished so many things in such a short time.

I don't even want to think of the treatments he is going through to make him wear like that. :(

The poor guy has seen better days. He looks like nothing like his former self. I wouldn't have recognize him.
