Patrick Swayze checks into hospital with pneumonia

Fri Jan 9, 1:05 PM PST <BODY.CONTENT>

Patrick Swayze has checked himself into the hospital for observation after contracting pneumonia, A&E President Abbe Raven announced Friday at a meeting of the Television Critics Association.

Swayze was scheduled to appear to discuss his upcoming drama "The Beast."

Robert DeBitetto, A&E's programming senior vice president, explained his absence.

"Patrick has asked that I tell you that this morning he checked himself into the hospital for observation," said DeBitetto. "Chemotherapy can take its toll on the immune system, and illnesses are a part of that. Patrick wishes me to tell you that he's very sorry he cannot attend, but plans to get back to promoting `The Beast' soon."

Earlier this week, Swayze told ABC's Barbara Walters that his yearlong battle with pancreatic cancer put him "through hell" while he pushed ahead on his new TV series.

The 56-year-old actor also owned up to his fear: "Yeah, I'm scared. Yeah, I'm angry. Yeah, I'm (asking), 'Why me?'"

That's sad. I really like Patrick Swayze.

See, Sass? There's a difference between Swayze's illness and Travolta's son's death. Swayze is putting it out there. He's the celebrity.. he chose the life. Travolta's son didn't.

Anyway....

I'm sure lots of people in the death pool stakes of '09 are happy to hear this news.

I didn't much care for Swayze movies, but he showed he had a sense of humor in his SNL appearances, and it was hard not to like him after that. I'm sure he's been an inspiration to others in his predicament, and it's a credit to him that he's "put it out there." Best of luck to him.

yeah..well I've been real depressed and then my Internet went down last night but I just got it back up *snicker* no thanks to AT&T tech support....I had to figure it out on my own. Anyway there's been lots of drama here at home so I haven't been on line a whole lot. I won't go into details here but please pray for Sara if you have it in your heart to do so.
