Cancer? What cancer? Onlookers tell OK! Patrick Swayze was well enough to party with family and friends at the Rockit Bar & Grill in Chicago on Aug. 3, where he’s in town to shoot his upcoming A&E drama The Beast.
“Patrick looked healthy. He’s put on weight,” a fellow patron reports. “Around 3 a.m., Patrick raised his glass for a toast with a group of friends, and then everyone did a shot.”
Patrick, 56, who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in March, danced with his wife, Lisa Niemi into the morning and left around 4:30 a.m. Apparently not even cancer can put Patrick in a corner.
