The reason we hear about Patrick Swayzes cancer is the same reason we
hear about pretty much everything stars do these days even though Mr
Swayze is definitely a star who goes under the radar most of the time.
Personally when I heard this news earlier today, it touched me. I
feel for him and what he is going through just the same as I do when I
hear about anyone on this list or anyone amongst my circle of friends
and acquaintances who are dealing with cancer. In particular I was
upset that he has pancreatic cancer as that is known to be very
difficult to treat.
Its a fact of life that ever since Hollywood started making movies
people wanted to know about the stars lives. Its not that they are
more "important" as you say, but that worldwide, people know them from
their movies, they are interested in them and in many cases, come to
feel fondly towards them.
Would you have it that no one ever hears that anyone at all has
cancer, or conversely, by what mechanism for example would you have
the entire world informed that you and everyone on this list it
applies to, has cancer? How many people in the world know you or who
you are so there would be any relevance to them knowing it?
As to any potential use there may be in making recommendations,
perhaps someone will make one to him and perhaps it might save his
life. That to me would definitely be making a difference.
Why would you think he wouldnt listen?
Theres one thing you can count on in this life and I could sum it up
thusly: nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Just this week, someone well known in the music business that has a
connection to Patrick through the movie Roadhouse, died of cancer,
sadly: Jeff Healy. Who knows if more people knew about that
beforehand, someone could have suggested a protocol to him and changed
the course of his life? You never know.
I absolutely agree that it would be nice to see more TV and film
feature a non conventional approach to cancer. Maybe the best way of
getting to that point is for people who know and believe in
alternatives to spread the word as much as possible-even to the stars.
cheers.
