Patrick Swayze was “okay” with death

Dirty Dancing star Patrick Swayze wrote that he was "okay" with the thought of his death.
Patrick Swayze had accepted his death shortly before losing his two-year battle with pancreatic cancer, he reveals in his upcoming memoirs, The Time Of My Life. In the book written earlier this year with his wife of 34 years, Lisa, Swayze reveals that his fulfilling life left him feeling "okay" with the thought of death. "I had been having some digestive trouble, mostly acid reflux and a kind of bloated feeling, for a few weeks," Swayze writes. "I've had a sensitive stomach my whole life, so I hadn't thought much of it, but lately I just couldn't shake the constant discomfort. My doctor told me my chances of surviving for more than a few months weren't high and I had no reason to doubt him. I began thinking to myself, I've had more lifetimes than any 10 people put together, and it's been an amazing ride. So this is okay."
