Patrick Swayze showed modern medicine that a strong spirit can outlive cancer prognoses big time.
However, to survive cancer, you have to do everything right:
believe you can battle cancer +
modern medicine +
alternative medicine +
live healthy +
reduce stress +
increase love , or like Patrick Swayze said:
"you gotta have a dog".
Our condolences to Lisa, Patrick's friends and family.
