The Ghost actor is reportedly suffering from a particularly vicious form of pancreatic cancer which has now spread to his other organs, and is not responding to treatment.

One of the worst type of cancers you can get. Once diagnosed in majority of cases death is swift. And from what I have researched is very painful for the sufferer.

This is one off, if not the most aggressive form of cancer there is. My Grandmother passed away from it about a year ago. She dies about 3 months after being diagnosed and there was absolutely nothing that could be done for her.

I feel for you Spoljar. My Grandmother contracted bowel cancer, of which is the next worse to Pancreatic, nothing could be done and we all watched what once was a dynamic Woman waste away over the ensuing months.

Her quality of life from the time diagnosed to the time of death was a bedside vigil.

Very sad.

Denial of the severity.

But his doctor released a statement saying: "Patrick has a very limited amount of disease and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far."
