About this product

Product Information

In a career spanning more than thirty years, Patrick Swayze has made a name for himself on the stage, the screen, and television. Known for his versatility, passion and fearlessness, he's become one of our most beloved actors. But in February 2008, Patrick announced he had been diagnosed with stage IV pancreatic cancer. Always a fighter, he refused to let the disease bring him to his knees, and his bravery has inspired both his legion of fans and cancer patients everywhere. Yet this memoir, written with wisdom and heart, recounts much more than his bout with cancer. In vivid detail, Patrick describes his Texas upbringing, his personal struggles, his rise to fame with North and South, his commercial breakthroughs in Dirty Dancing and Ghost , and the soul mate who's stood by his side through it all: his wife, writer and director Lisa Niemi. A behind-the-scenes look at a Hollywood life and a remarkable love, this memoir is both entertainment and inspiration. Patrick and Lisa's marriage is a journey of two lives intertwined and lived as one--throughout their years in Hollywood and at home on their working ranch outside Los Angeles, and culminating in the hope and wisdom they've imparted to all who know them. This book will open the door for families, individuals, and husbands and wives to grow, bond and discover entirely new levels of love and sharing, proving that life shouldn't be lived as a series of endings, but rather as the beginning of greater strength and love.

    It truly was the time of their lives.

    A true story about an ordinary couple who achieved an extraordinary life and love. This book is just a tiny grain of sand on the beach of their lives that the public is allowed to see and feel, an example of the time of their lives Lisa and Patrick share. How amazing their 34-plus years together must have been.

  • A well-written story of love, optimism, & a gentle man w/ a fighting spirit

    A poignant and well-written memoir. Swayze comes across as he does in many movies--a strong yet gentle/sensitive man with a lot of ambition. His great love for his wife and family, his humility, and his appreciation for his many fortunes in life are the threads that winds through each chapter of the book. Unlike most celebrities, he never seems arrogant or contrived, nor does he focus on making himself look good so much as on his experiences with his various dance/film projects and relationships, which were all very important to him. Knowing that the book was written during his dying days makes the last few chapters rather difficult, especially for devoted fans, but his optimism, fighting spirit, and great love and zest for life shine through to the very last page.

  • Just When You Think You Don't Have The Strength

    I've always been a Patrick Swayze fan of him and his movies but after reading his book it's definitely quite clear why I've been a fan of his as I sure enjoyed reading about his life that he was just as human as the rest of us and had his share of ups, downs, and insecurities in life before the cancer in spite of a really great marriage to Lisa which their marriage was rare especially in Hollywood. What really made me just keep reading this book is the amount of fight he had in him. Just when you don't think you have the strength to deal with one more "bad happening" in life, well his book is definitely inspiring and shows you that you can. Easy? Of course not, but that's what I really admired and respected about him was not giving up and fighting his cancer till the end. I've read a few ...

  • Patrick share his life

    I can't put the book down. When I am finished it will not be given away or sold. Heart warming! Inspiring! Easy read! Heart wrenching! Patrick shares with us a life filled with tragic dream breakers and his ability to keep on going. Will share this book with my son who as a professor of music is also living through dream breakers because of our deep recession. My heart goes out to his wonderful wife, Lisa. I feel like I have known her for years.

  • Wonderful read!

    I so enjoyed this book, I have always adored Patrick Swaze. Cancer is such a horrific disease , Patrick’s courage , strength and the love and support of his wife is awe-inspiring. The book gave me so much insight as to what someone goes through when fighting, which truly makes him and his wife heroes.
