Pancreatic cancer is a death sentence,

Sad but true. I like his movies including Point Break. Smoking cigarettes ain't gonna help nobody beat cancer.

"Smoking cigarettes ain't gonna help nobody beat cancer."

True, but this type of cancer doesn't get beat. I saw a discussion with oncologists on FoxNews regarding Swayze's smoking while undergoing treatment, and one doctor said that the pancreatic cancer was going to kill him long before the cigarettes could. The other doctor also mentioned that the stress of smoking cessation would certainly not do him any good in his condition. They both made good points.

You know sometimes there’s a point in life where it hardly matters anymore. And the stress of quitting can be unreal. If it’s what he want to do, it’s his life. As in the lyrics of “If 6 was 9”.
