Pancreatic cancer is a death sentence, no matter what the resident shaman of the Phillipine Church of God has to say about it. Mention of his “Zapper” device conjures images im my head of the time machine which almost electrocuted Napolean Dynamite.

I don't know about pancreatic cancer, but there was a sheen of shameless flogging in the piece.

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

I agree with your sentiments regarding pancreatic cancer.

One of my mom’s clients (a very wealthy lawyer) got it about three years ago.

Thru a number of experimental trials at the Mayo Clinic, he was able to delay the inevitable for 2 years. He actually led a pretty good life during that time too, relatively free of pain and chemo side-effects. But eventually the cancer got the upper hand and won.

Sad. Now every quack and fradulent “healer” will try to circle Swayze like buzzards.

Didn't Steve Jobs of Apple beat his pancreatic cancer?

From Science Daily - Traditional Herbal Medicine Kills Pancreatic Cancer Cells, Researchers Report

An herb used in traditional medicine by many Middle Eastern countries may help in the fight against pancreatic cancer, one of the most difficult cancers to treat. Researchers at the Kimmel Cancer at Jefferson in Philadelphia have found that thymoquinone, an extract of nigella sativa seed oil, blocked pancreatic cancer cell growth and killed the cells by enhancing the process of programmed cell death.
