Yes, "I love you" is never wasted.
Just watched this for the first time and omg Lisa, you are unbelievably brave to stand on stage and tell your story and love that you had for Patrick. You were blessed to be such a huge part of his life and he was to be part of yours. I can hear how much you loved him and I hope you can feel our love for you. X
Lady I really do believe you're serious, but really think about it she's doing this on Patrick's coattails she doesn't want you to think that so that's why she starts all saying all the things she is and can do and is known for and this good at and to me when somebody starts to talkin like that
It's all about her her and how wonderful she is well if she's wonderful, she is because of her husband whom we all loved and he was never on stage doing what she's doing. I guess she has a right and I think I have a right to my own reaction and response because I never liked her. I think she is in was a cold fish! But she was right about one thing she was married to the sexiest man alive, until she wasn't

Who cares if you like Patrick Swayze’s wife? You don’t even know her. Never met her. Never were friends with her. Never worked with her. You get an impression of this or that. Leave the poor woman alone. You don’t know anything really about their relationship.
Wow! This brought just about every emotion out of me. Very, very touching. Thoughts and prayers are with you and Patrick ALWAYS 🙏❤️
How dare any 1 person on this planet say anything disrespectful about Lisa!!! Very very strong woman,who obviously Lost The Love Of Her Life!!!🥰
You are an incredibly brave woman and so blessed to have had a love for all those years. God bless you and thanks so much for sharing with the world.
Lisa..you will always be loved
that was just beautiful tears are rolling down my cheeks bless you lisa i feel like i have more understanding now xxx
Pena que ainda não pensaram em colicar tradução!
Read what house keeper said about her
I can’t believe some of the most nasty comments on here about this lady,none of you know what went on you were not there so unless you have 100% proof I think you should all keep your opinions to yourself.
Pics of them speak for them self and I know he wants her happy he said that and get 5 years then she did I know her heart always his her first but a second can sooth take the loneliness away

Good for you for saying that. People in glass houses shouldn't be throwing stones.
Your a very strong and beautiful women.
It is the living who close the eyes of the dead, and the dead who open the eyes of the living.
Let s be truly alive!
Thank you, Lisa!
Thank you, Patrick!
Love and Light
Actor, singer, dancer and so much more. A life well lived. Thanks Patrick for sharing the time of your life. Gone too soon. Rest in peace. Forever missed.
So eloquently said. Thank you for reminding us of this gift called life.
He was the sextet man alive and very talented
This woman is a disgrace. First there are the well known stories of abuse, both when he was sick and throughout their marriage. Stories substantiated by his brother, caretakers and house staff. Then there are the stories of infidelity, on her part alone. In fact many close to Patrick told him that due to his popularity he could easily pay her back. Yet he refused to. Then the selling off of most of his personal possessions. Last but not least the sale of his beloved ranch and horses. Now I understand people deal with grief differently but this ranch was the one that Patrick's ashes were spread on. Pitiful. Karma is a bitch and her time will come.
cavdragoon wow that is a bit over the top,as the saying goes if you weren’t there to see it with your own eyes or hear it with your own ears then it’s best to say nothing,what you are saying is just hearsay.
Any of these people could have made up these stories to be fair
@@sophiedavies5104 actions also speak volumes about ones character. Did she sell off the ranch where his remains are scattered? Did she sell off his horses? Did she sell off his personal possessions? There is no making up those facts. You're also telling me his brother who was with him till the end and the Swayze family must be lying.
This woman is a brave and kind soul, most definitely Patrick is standing next to her. Smiling. #Bodhi #speedstar #pointbreak

I believe if Patrick swayze had of known he had a son he would of put him in his will . I think Lisa swayze is COLD HARDED to knot want to give his only son ANYTHING knowing his hearts desire was to have a child.
I HOPE Lisa gets to see this.
Omg you can here the pain in her voice when she talks, that's so sad☹🙏she loved Patrick Swayze more then ya can imagine. They had an amazing marriage. I know the hardest part was to go on with her life. But she had to go on, Patrick would want her to keep going. She will always remember Patrick forever. Hes gone but he will never be forgotten🙏Patrick will always be in our HEARTS💖and will never be forgotten. R.I.P. Patrick your with God's angels🕊🕊💖💖❤❤🙏🙏
No le creo nada
Solo esperaba la herencia. y se casó ahora con un millonario. Lo único que le interesa es el dinero
Yes he is ❤️💜💜🙏
RIP Patrick!You was loved from all us and God to,bcz it he took you early .. Patrick you will remain always in our memory !
I just want to say ... Why does it feel like Im a part of Patrick Swayze ... lol I can see myself dancing with him... what a wonderful spirit of a man .... !
You arent the only one...he was something special!!!
I feel the same,and I don't know why! Such a special man
Because every single woman wanted to marry a man like that.
Have we learned anything from him being here on Earth? For me, the gifts he gave, and the life he lived....was his gifts to us all.
Here are some of his qualities...that moved me: Fearlessness, Empathy and Down to Earth. Went to young....but won't be forgotten 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
THAT was amazing. I know how hard that must of been to open up to everyone and talk personally about the journey you had to go thru with Patrick.Thank you for sharing and Bless both of you.
So wonderful and moving to see this. Lisa's braveness and courage to share her story with Patrick is heartbreaking but ultimately very inspiring. Thank you.
It is not heartbraking, what is heartbraking is that she sold everything he ever worked hard for ! And she got the nerve to stand up there lecturing other people about cancer and relationship ..just to get some attention..a clown if you ask me
@@stefaniedarabi2601 are you ignoring or choosing to forget that Patrick became an alcoholic after his father died?
As much as Lisa loved him, she moved out, but checked on him daily.
You are the one looking a clown, if you ask me.
Thank you lisa. My husband also died from pancreatic cancer in sept. Of 2013. We had been married 35 years. He was loosing muscle and couldn't get diagnosed and so he made me go on a wonderful vacation to DC for a week. We got back and he was finally diagnosed and was gone 5 months later. He too worked almost until the end and yes it was beautiful and oh so intimate! He died with a smile on his face. He used to say if you die first I'm going to get you stuffed and put you in the corner. I would smile and say nobody puts baby in the corner and then we would have a beautiful roll in the hay! Thanks again lisa, god bless.
My heart truly breaks for you having lost your husband of 35 years. Using "God" in this context should be capitalized.
I know she always have him in her heart. He want her to be happy. He with God now and life goes on for her
I am sorry for your loss you truly seem to still be in pain i am glad you were there for each other and that you have wonderful life with each other and memories of those. Lisa coes not in any way represent anyone who has losta spouse or loved one to this horrible disease. Please do not Lisa speak for you she is a bald face liar who is using Patrick to this day to make money off of him her new husband wants more money and they can continue the abuse she put him through esp during the last few years. Do not fall for her lies and manipulation. You deserve better. SHare your story seperate of her please May good karma and blessings from God carry you through the rest of your life. Good luck
Deborah Wolfe...how can you use ‘karma’ & ‘God’ in the same sentence?? If you truly believe in God you also are aware there is no such thing as karma! Never should these be put together!!!
@@joannspencer1094What is wrong with the world, is everyone is too critical of others!
Patrick's dancing with angels & riding wild horses. RIP SWEET MAN.
I have walked in your shoes, Mrs. Swayze, and it isn't easy. I know you miss him very much. You guys had something very special together. To let someone go is hard, but we all have to sooner or later....and they will have to let us go, too. God bless you and rest in peace, Patrick...such a tall fresh drink of water, that man was.
My sister is over fifteen years Pancreatic cancer survivor. No chemo, no surgery, do drugs. Lots of prayers, emotional healing, all vegan diet, and she is still with us today. The lord had another plan for her. She had a 2.5 centimeter by 2.5 centimeter tumor in her pancreas , it shrunk. My sister is one of the few. I am so thankful to the lord that she is still alive. Now my sister helps people with cancer, she is a cancer coach, and working on her book as she calls it; about her cancer "journey".
That is amazing and Thank you for sharing your Sister's story ❤️ So many people Blame God for these Devastating Diseases, Sicknesses and illnesses. When God did not afflict Us with these or the other bad things we face. But he will be there for anyone who cries out to him for Healing or he will have his arms wide open when it's time. Thankful for those who Pray and call upon God for Us 🙏❤🙏
Do not let your hearts be troubled, trust in God trust also in Jesus. 100% right, lots of prayers. God Bless.
Partick swayze. ... you are one he'll of a guy. ....
The brave doesn't live forever but the cautious doesn't live at all. Start living rather than existing.
Tinalovesmovies I love this
Thatsca great quote I've never heard till now. Thx!!
She said it in the video. Lol
@@juliatapper171 ko
Amazing woman. Their love is legendary
I remember screaming and crying at the top of my lungs in my car when I got the word from my doctor " I am so sorry Mrs. _____ you have a very very rare form of Cancer", she just kept saying it over and over and tried to console me. I have 3 young children, the ironic part was I remembered my mom doing the exact same thing I did when I heard and she was in her car as WELL! Cancer SUCKS!!
Are you still here?
God bless you Lisa Swayze! I was an extra dancer n Dirty Dancing,dated David Swayze and his uncle,Dr Swayze was my physician in Nacogdoches,Texas.Patrick was such an inspiration to me and others,as well as you.But as Patrick had told me once,"When things get tough&u feel like u want to give up,DANCE!"Keep on dancing u beautiful lady!U make us proud!
Angel of heaven : which scene were you in
Yea Which One? We Would All LoVe 2 Kno!!!
LOL probably not true
Is that really true?
@@DisneyMomX35 6
Everyone wants to get mad at her for remarrying why? Patrick would want her to be happy, she can't sit around and stop living she deserves to be happy. She was with Patrick for 37 years the love she has for him will never die, yes I said has. He may have died, her love for him didn't. Her love for her new husband is a different love, it's not the same.
shawna266: The Word of God (Bible), gives her permission to do so, without it being sinful in the sight of God! But, she is suppose to marry someone in the Lord (a man who not only believes in Christ, but is also obedient to the Word of God)!.....
shawna266
shawna266 she used to beat Patrick. And he never once hit her back. And she forged a will and his signature. She is a cow
Kerri Neu not true
You are so full of it. That is definitely not true so you should be ashamed of yourself for saying that.
So 30+ years of marriage isn't enough? She doesn't have to prove anything to anyone. She deserves to be happy. Whether she found love love one year of three after his death, that doesn't diminish what they had in any way, shape or form. They spent a lifetime together...how many couples get divorce within the first few years of their marriage, if they make it that far? They were a beautiful couple, but I'm sure he would want her to be happy; if you really love someone, you want them to be happy..so good for her. I adore Patrick Swayze. He was an amazing actor and multitalented too.
I lost my husband to the same thing.... 3 months to the day of diagnosis. Patrick was an amazing man... R.I.P. Love all of his movies and to watch you both dance is wonderful. Letting go is the worst thing. Huge Hugs to you.
I know this comment was 7 years ago but how are you doing now?
Patrick means to me my beautiful youth days. Thank you Patrick. You will always remain in my heart ❤.
I can see the hurt…feel it through the spoken words. I like many others have lost people I love. Days are good and then that feeling descends upon you like a weighty blanket that holds you down. You stay in that position until you reach inside the wonderful memories that are held secure within your heart and hold them close. I do not believe in death. The soul is eternal. The vessel that we were given at birth wears out, or becomes so sick that it is useless to use anymore. That is when the soul takes wings and flies. At that moment you are reborn and you are no longer held down by sickness, and pain. My father died of Alzheimer’s. It is a horrible disease. You lose them twice. The first loss is when they stop being able to communicate. It’s like a deep valley separates you from the one you love and you can’t help them cross back over to you. My father and I used to sit and talk for hours about all kinds of things before he got sick. Then the death of the vessel happens and you know once again they are free, well and safe. I had a very beautiful dream, which I feel was a visitation from my father about two weeks after his death. He had walked through the dining room. Reached out and took me into his arms, and laughed and laughed. He kept saying my goodness, my goodness. It was so healing for me. He was young. My guess was about 30. He was perfect.
I also experienced loss when my ex husband died of melanoma. It was entirely different from the death of my father. He did not live long after the diagnosis came in. Melanoma is called the gold star of cancer. It is deadly and it can take you out very quickly. Each day my children and I tried to take care of him and help him to die. Hospice was such a gift. Even with hospice on board he suffered greatly. His lungs were filling with fluid. He could hardly breathe. It’s at those times that you pray for the Lord to take them home. You know that heaven awaits them. A place of perfect peace, health and harmony. He died at a time when they told us he would live two more weeks. Paul had the last word. He left on his own terms. I would have loved to have seen his spirit come up out of that diseased body. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was running circles in that room and laughing. He was always a energy filled man. Cancer took that from him for a short time. But he won in the end because his soul was reborn into a life that we are all meant to live. I am glad that neither he or my father have to experience the sadness of this world with all the hatred that is wrapping around this world. They never experienced the pandemic. No doubt there will be things we will go through in this world that will be unpleasant. But in the end those of us who know the Lord win because we go to be with Him. Never again to be sick, sad, afraid, hurt again. We are reborn to wholeness. I physically felt Paul the night he died. I was brushing my teeth and crying and felt his hand on my back. My children both have had distinct experiences of their own with him. I know he and my father come when I’m sad or fearful. I feel their presence. I look forward to my time to go where I can see them again.
I say the older I get the closer I get to being young again. We will get a new body and it will be young and perfection. Until that time we must spread the love that we gave them to others and help them in this journey of life. We are here to learn for what we think is a long life…but when compared to eternity it is very short. I say…love those around you. Love conquers all.
Thank you Lisa for sharing. I've got cancer, and it really helped me so very much with my end game. Thank you
I'm pray you're doing ok... God bless you
thank you. for this I am currently. fighting myself. your words are very helpful
Tim Beaudry hey Tim. Can you send us an update? Sending love to you.
Tim Beaudry ❤
Much love and all the best to you! ♥️
Tim, sending love and strength your way to help you fight the fight and WIN!! Please keep us posted🤗
Good luck Tim, been there
I'm a Chicago girl born and raised and I was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in December of 2014. I'm still here. I had a whipple procedure and at the time I had a 7 yr old and was given 6 months to live. I was afraid. I'm still afraid. Thank you Lisa for sharing. Keep sharing!!! Pateick is my angel. Many times I saw him sit next to me in ICU. he really was there. Helping me fight.
Joel’s Osteens mom was healed of cancer . I think her story is on RUclips.
I Hope and Pray 🙏 ❤ that you are Healed and that you won't have to live in Fear anymore. God is still able, to many this devastating Cancer is a quick and painful death. But you are still here. It is now 02-22-23 and it says you posted this 2 years ago. I would love to hear more of your story ❤️ in 2023. Praying for you Raquel Jesus Loves you and despite what the World 🌎 says about him, he did not afflict us with these Diseases, Sickness and illnesses, but he will be there for you if you call upon him 🙏❤ He will do the same for anyone reading 📚 this. 2020-2023 Has been a Curse to many of Us all around the World 🌎 Jesus still Heals and he still Saves.
What a strong and brave woman...Her book is amazing...RIP, Patrick, we'll never forget you.
Her book is not a representation of what was actually happening Now Patrick can be free from the abuse of her and can dance with angels now just like he deserves
We can't take the book as a fact of what was really going on behind closed doors. I hope the negative gossip is false but we can't be sure of what the truth is based on a book.
Full of shit
She a liar
Strong brave woman you need look at the facts about what she did to him when he was ill read what house keeper said about her
I love patrick swayze I will. always remember him great actor will miss him. and his movies hope Lisa is ok patrick will always be missed remembered
As a widow myself I can attest that everything she says here is so true. I found a great deal of comfort in reading her book. Thank you, Lisa. I see the emotional toil you go through to talk about all this, but I'm so glad you did.
I lost my husband to Mesothelioma on July 19, 2021, just 3 months ago. It’s a death sentence. Prognosis 6-12 months. We met when I was barely 15, he was 19 - 57 yrs ago. He fought with everything he could, chemo, special treatments, drinks...but he just kept losing ground. I had no help except from our son in the midst of Covid. It’s amazing how long a body can go on with very little nourishment. But those 6 months were precious. 3 days after going to Hospice, at 11:00 p.m., we told him it was time to go. He died peacefully 1 hr. and 40 minutes later. I hope the day comes when I’m as brave as you. I so admired Patrick and the way you handled it together. Grief is indescribable.
Bonnie, you ARE very brave. Hang in there.
Wow what a beautiful marriage.
Lisa, you have such an enormous spirit. It is easy to understand why Patrick treasured you. I lost my husband of almost 32 years 7 years ago to cancer. You seem to have a sense of wholeness that been invaluable, but it is true that in a long term, loving relationship it is like the roots of the two people have grown together and are intertwined so when one is uprooted the other is left in a weakened state. I deal with mental illness and my husband was my gatekeeper so I am still trudging through each day, but I love it when he comes to me in my dreams. I know it is a dream but it is like I have him back for a few minutes. Very precious. Once though as I was awakening I thought I could hear him snoring and I was so excited but it was my dog. I was devastated. How much I would give to hear him snore again. “...and in these dreams we share let us not miss one kiss”. So happy you have found love again.
Beautiful brave lady. Life is to be lived and in love. It takes incredible courage to find a new beginning and to give yourself permission. A beautiful tribute to Patrick and their enduring love. Calm peacefullness and love on her new beginning.
My husband is terminal with Huntingtons. There is a eternal bond and calm oeace only we share. When he could talk before the ravages of the illness made it impossible for speech. I'd be by his side and ask how he was that day. He always said to me "Better now that your here". In times of life struggles aline in essense, I'd find myself visiting without sharing the struggle but he knew and it seemed the calm we shared just being together helped me internalize the struggle and find my way. This lovely lady is so incredibly brave and honorable. May she always find calm in her deepest quitest moments. Love is protecting her and guiding her on an exciting new beginning. It at no time is replacing what was, but is enhancing what is ahead in life.. Blessings special lady. May you fly free in the calm of your new beginnings. Blessings. Thank you for this very personal talk. Beautiful.
So blown away by her courage, conviction and commitment...we thank you for sharing him with us for so many years...you/ve made the story complete....we now understand why he was so whole!
She abused him horribly his last two years of his lifeow is that good in any way She is still making money off him does she have no respect?
She seems to be a good person hope she is happy Patrick would want her to be ☺💖
Getting rid of all of his things was so heart wrenching to see them being sold on EBAY of all places... Just don't want to hear from her anymore! I'm out............Thumbs down Lisa!
I Agree, I would have never done that!!!
It was pathetic.
As I already said she is a beast and on,y out to mak money off of his memories and his dying. She abused him horribly esp his last two yrs and rhen to pretend she cared is outrageous. I could write a book too if I took the infofrom other books and pieced it together and had another write it for me. Be aware do not fall for her lies and do not spend anymore money on her. Patrick deserves better May he be dan ing with amgels he deserves it.
I couldn't agree even more! His niece tried to stop her from selling it and even posted a petition for it to be canceled said his belongings should be with his family.
Patrick Swayze. Descansa en paz.Siempre te recordaremos por tus hermosas películas.Santiago de Chile, abril 2019.
It’s horrendous! This disgusting, insidious disease robbing us of our loved ones. Watching as they remain optimistic whilst, before your eyes, wasting away. Praying to God to save them. Offering your own life in return. A feeling of helplessness. A desperation so deep of not to let go.
Finally, your prayers revert from “let him live” to “please God take him home. No more suffering. No more pain. Please, take him home”.
The pain the emptiness and sorrow leaves a broken heart.
We travel through the remainder of our lives with wonderful memories in store.
We think of our loved one day after day, amidst smiles and tears galore.
However, we know that there shall come a time when, once more we shall stand side by side. For there in the glory of heaven, is our loved one, arms opened wide.
No more pain or sorrow . No more suffering. Just love and peace with the one you love. Together in God’s holiness.
May God bless, comfort & protect you.
You truly know the pain of this horrible disease and cancers of any kind. You describe what truly happens. I wish good karma for you and May God bless you each and everyday and help you with your pain. You should of written the book at least it wiuld of been honest not from reading others and trying to write from there.
Patrick most likely told her to "move on" and be happy. There is nothing wrong with her finding love again. She is honoring his wishes and his memory. Everyone who is dissing her because of her new life should get real and stop tossing hate into her direction. Mind your own life choices and dont worry about what someone else is up to. Get a life and keep it real people. For those who are defending her, you understand. Life is too short to be so passionate against good things like love and finding it.....whatever the reason. Take care people.
Beautifully said...it is clear how deeply she loved Patrick Swayze 37 years together even if she remarries she will never forget or lose the love she had for him...and I am sure he wouldn't want her to be lonely and would be happy to know she's found someone to share life with and not be sad...life is too short. I am a cancer survivor so think all she's said here is so true and she's given a voice to those out there who haven't a voice to explain what it really is like to go through it. Chemo is awful it is hell on wheels...people seriously need to stop disrespecting this lovely woman...it's clear the pain is still raw!
I think if she had loved him for real, after 34 years, married to him, and she has lost him the sad way she lost him, she would not think of marrying again with so happiness "She said in an interview, when she became engaged, that she was too excited to be back in a married woman !! I think she missed most of the marriage than him!
I totally agree with you . Everyone says "oh she deserves to find happiness and its up to her etc etc" and yes all that is true. But it was so shocking that she could move on so fast. she is obviously just built from different stuff to most people and is a very tough woman. I would wear my widows weeds forever, if id been married to Patrick and would just thank god for the years of happiness that I did have, and not go out searching for more happiness - as it tarnishes the memory of her husband
Darla Clemons if lisa loved patrick so much,then why is she being so offensive toward patricks family ! If patrick was alive 2 day ,I would gaurantee he would not take this crap from no 1 ! 2 whomever disagrees ,then you have a problem ,just remember , " Blood is thicker than water " ! Just watch the movie patrick swayze was in with Bill Paxton and Liam Nelson ! You never want 2 go through that ! : !
I guess I have a problem because I don't believe "blood is thicker than water". A family is what you make, who you choose to surround yourself with, not what you are born into. I was born into a "family" with secrets and denials, of supporters of a monster and those who ostracized a victim to the point that she walked away from all of them. Me, I did. I wouldn't stand with many of them. I believe you make your family as you go along in life. I have more family than I have blood relatives. And that is the healthiest option for me.
He was awesome
Cancer is such a vicious disease. I had breast cancer and I beat it, but my age was in my favor. It's a hard battle. You just cannot give in to it. Find that place inside you that will not let you fail.
God bless.
+kidfromstatenisland I fought ovarian cancer and my sisters ovarian cancer was in her pancreas and she is a survivor!
+kathleen Farmer So happy for you sister survivors!
Glad to hear you beat it but nomatter how hard you try nomatter what treatments or how much prayer is there some cancers just cannot be beaten but to not try is to give up so no matter the type everyone needs to fight until they can no longer giving in to the relief of death after constant horrible pain is all that is left to anyone who dies with that severe pain. I have been a nurse for 42 yrs. I have taken care of many patients who tried so hard along with others who didn't try and they both died or in some cases lived regardless it seems with all the knew treat,ents and knowledge we would be able to cure most things but sadly not enough I have held the hand or a child when they are dying and it is heart breaking and I pray and hope those who are suffering find their own way to deal with the cancer and pain, esp whenit is not curable and we need to respect their wishes. It is the only decision and or control they have left over their life. May god bless each

God bless you
Thank-you for sharing your story of grief. I know what it is like to lose a partner. I learnt that it takes a lot of courage to put that one foot in front of the other.
She physically abused him.
How do you know that ??
Love him forever xx I'm so glad she's found happiness again , Patrick would be so pleased, they loved each other so much. xx
Was für eine schreckliche Person
Ash died 6 weeks after diagnosis. It was horrific BUT he died with a smile on his face... As if to say "I will go out fighting this" He had a great Spirit & we loved each other so much....
Starting to hear the real story about Lisa. Does not seem like she is who she says she is. Not a really nice person from what I hear from his family.
Great courage the both of you and in you for sharing and obviously true love was shared between you and Patrick. God loves you Lisa and Patrick and his love is forever.
She is such a brave woman. She stuck with him through the good, bad and the ugly. She is right how he was fearless and was never afraid to try anything. He was so handsome, awesome actor and a wonderful husband. Her and Patricks's DVD before his passing they were going to have a baby and she was pregnant but lost the baby and never tried again and they were both devastated. They were team and a strong couple and fought the devil. She is such an amazing woman after 4 years after his passing.
I recall watching an interview with Patrick, and he talked so lovingly about Lisa... including of how deeply shy she was. A truly brave and angelic Woman. They loved one another so very much. Fly high Patrick 💘
Did she ever find God in any of this or a higher purpose- saddens me! I was waiting to hear a moment of enlightenment but it didn't come! God bless you Patrick!
Jan Cooper I was thinking the exact same thing - but We are Christians so we rely on the ultimate power of Jesus. I feel sad for those who fight trials without our Savior.
So smug. Pharisaical dismissive judgement. Such a lack of humility to think you have any insight as to her entire inner world based on a 15 minute presentation. Try imitating Jesus instead
People really need to stop.judging and assuming things. I am sure Patrick is in Heaven smiling down on Lisa and happy she has found another love. It does NOT replace her and Patrick's love in any way. Our hearts can love again, in time.
rhon715 I know, I wish people would stop judging her. Whether you like her or not, she has no choice but to go on with life. If she is lucky enough to find love again, good for her. She did not leave Patrick, Patrick did not leave her by choice. Life is what it is. Her selling her place with him must have been devastatingly difficult. I personally probably could not have done it, but everyone is different. She probably couldn't completely go on if she still lived there. Maybe it is a move of respect for their love and life together that she could not live there with someone else. I can see that. It has been a long time since he passed. I think every one of us knows he would want her to go on and find love if she could. If you love someone you want them to be happy. Neither of them had a choice of being separated. They were blessed more than most people in life to have had what they did for the time they did. You cannot ever recreate that and can only be grateful that you were so blessed and move on. Blessings Lisa.
I bet you believe fake pres lies too. Sorry but abuse is abuse it is plain and simple If half of what she tries to say is true she would of given his close family a choice of his most precious items not sell the to strangers on ebay. Selli g the farm the horses she had to have. I think Patrick would be shocked at how naive people are. He is dancing with angels and not watching his abuser continue to do so making more money off him.
It's ok to remarry but there is some nasty gossip that she sort of confirms by selling all his treasured possessions. He was worth a lot why did she need to sell some of the items his family would surely treasure if given the chance to keep? I don't know what to think really.
May God richly bless you such a beautiful brave woman ,you were a beautiful couple and your love will last for eternity RIP Patrick!
I'm so happy for her that she finally found love again💕
I can relate to some of her experiences when my husband passed. Parting is "such sweet sorrow" and when you both become one, to me, that's when you understand the meaning of love and life. God bless you widow Swayze, may He guide you always until your purpose here on earth is ended.🙏
That was beautiful and so intimate. Thank you, Lisa.
In an interview Patrick's family can't stand her. She allegedly sold everything off of his esp a special Mercedes he bought early on. She married a billionaire 3 yrs later and supposedly forgot all about him. She s all about the money. Here, she's only doing this for greed as well. His family has nothing to gain by lying..
God Bless you Lisa....You were definitely His Angel
windspirit1954 yes she is smart he left her everything nothing to his family she saw to that she is scum bucket
Thank you so much for sharing one of the hardest times in life and yes lisa your husband was one of the sexiest men on television even today and not only sexiest but well respected and liked!!! Sorry you had to lose your best friend so early in life 34 years to being without that person is shock and very hard anyhow, you both were such a role model to others of true love and marriage still existing thanks!!
Wow married for 30+ years and never shed a tear through the whole story. And so vague about his last moments or days. What happened to his forest?
If you couldn't tell, her voice shook a few times and she had to gather herself. Plus we don't know the truth of what hapoend behind closed doors.
Patrick was an awesome man. He is greatly missed. I so understand your journey. I went through the same thing with my husband. He wanted to be home to pass. He passed 2/22/2020. I still have moments after a year and a half where I feel lost. Prayers for you.
yep the pain of losing someone you love never goes away but with time it gets easier to bear.
Pretentious look on her face! If she really had ill treated Patrick when he was down.... Did she reveal how she treated Patrick? Leaving him to lie in his own shit??? Horrific person! Patrick literally worshipped her, and the return?
I sure hope these negative things weren't true. True or not. A great human being is now gone. It stings.
Noone should be judging her for moving forward with her life .... she is a phenomenal woman .. she stood beside , supported and loved Patrick unconditionally for 37 years !! Even now, watching this ... you can still see that is very hard for her ... Patrick was her #1 and she was his #1 .. Patrick's life ended but hers hasn't yet .. she has every right to keep living .. Patrick would want her to ... 37 years together ... that Love will never disappear or diminish. ... Live and keep moving Lisa ... Taking that Love with you so Patrick can still be with you every step of the way ... RIP Patrick , you are truly missed..
I've just watched Roadhouse for approximately the 498th time. Seeing Patrick in his adonis like prime, he was a truly beautiful man and a beautiful human being. The world is a dimmer place with his light shining upon it. RIP Patrick.
She has cold eyes, and you know what people say about eyes - they are the mirror of soul. I don't think she has one, and i read about Patrick's life, she was bad for him. So please, just read a little about it, and you will see. Don't listen to her, and her false story.I feel sorry for Patrick, he was a good man... You can thank me later.
My dad was 59 when diagnosed and died 6 months after. I saw what pancreatic cancer does to people, what it did to my dad and I can't stop crying..Will be soon 2 years.
Wow~ Lisa, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for making that uplifting , encouraging video. I had a lot of my thoughts of Patrick reaffirmed- his love for animals, his easy going way, his positive attitude, and his Love for you , to name just a few. I really LIKED him! And now to know that he was animal lover like myself, is just a "cherry" on top!!! I am so happy that you two had such a wonderful marriage. Yes, the world already misses him. Quite often I think -- "no one puts Baby in the corner"! And it makes me smile. That movie was awesome!!! I watch reruns of it all the time! Thank you for sharing your wonderful husband with all of us. I understand what you mean about the grief --- my husband ,who was a 2 tour Viet Nam Vet , with severe PTSD, took his life. That shook me out of my boots and my life is still so confusing - I want to hear his voice again, feel his smooth soft skin, look into his gorgeous blue eyes, play with his awesome beard, and just feel like I was where I was meant to be. 🙏 AMEN
Why are the good once taken away so fast:( Not fair! Patrick was such a beautiful soul. He will forever have special place in my heart❤️
Ers.una mala mujer lo.hutilizo para su buen vivir y abrirse camino.de actriz pero eras pesima no valias para actriz solo para estrirar las piernas el si fue el mejor !! Dejalo.en.paz ya bien.k te a probechastes de el.ya tienes un.nuevo marido dedicate a el.
She looks great.
Thank you for the courage to give this speech.
To me Patrick and Lisa were a match made in Heaven! You can still see the pain in her ❤️❤️ Heart and I feel some of her pain I've lost a husband too! Lisa is a very brave Woman and I wish her the best of everything in her moving forward cause that's a lot to endure! R.i.p.Patrick you will always be in Our ❤️❤️ Heart's!
I had spent a weekend with my cousin & he was totally fine. A mo later he told me he was just diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer, I was WHAT⁉️⁉️ Well 3 mo later he was gone. Pancreatic cancer is a bad one. All cancer is but boy oh boy it takes u out fast. I guess its because its a silent cancer. By the time u r diagnosed its far advanced. My cousin had just turned 60. He was one of the kindest person u could ever know. I sure miss him💔
She spoke like a true human the meaning of the things she said I will always remember God bless you your a wonderful person
Well done, Lisa. You have said that Patrick encouraged you to be the best version of yourself that you could be. So it's clear that he would not have wanted you to collapse and disappear into yourself after his passing. He would have known that your CONTINUING to become the best version of yourself possible - would be a much better legacy of what the two of you had - than that his passing would have diminished you to the vanishing point.
Bless you for your courage in sharing that with all of us. The day may come when any one of us may need to reach for that same state of grace and graciousness that you both have shown can lift us above. It doesn't change the outcome - but it changes how we get there . . . And that can't be a bad thing.
You put it very well. I lost a husband as well. Grief is like waves. If it all came in one big tsunami, it would kill us.
Wow! what this poor woman must of went through hell seeing her husband go through such a horribly monstrous disease . 😢 you can see through this video and talking about her and Patrick’s experiences, that she held back tears . What a strong woman! My prayers are with her and Patrick’s family.
Thank ya.ll for sharing this ladies story of her brave husbands fight to carry on being himself . Fortune favours the brave .and sounds to me like he was so brave
This is very hard to hear the sadness in your voice Lisa. I lost my husband 11 months ago, 8 months after diagnosis. I was lucky that we worked together in our own business, but he didn’t dance. I miss his face and silly sense of humour. I don’t like thinking of each day to come without him. It’s hard ....
What an amazing presentation! Lisa's words regarding the grieving process and how to get through the loss touched my heart. I recently lost my mother to lung & brain cancer and everything she says is so true about having to let someone go. It is not easy but you do have to find a way give them and yourself peace. My heart goes out to her.
My husband lost his battle with this deadly beast 6 months ago and he faught it from November 2012. And just like Patrick they gave him 6 months but he was never going to give and he faught all the way to his last breathe. He was and always will be the love of my life'
I was in tears... I needed this! She has helped me. My hubby just died recently and I can relate to every single thing she said... My hubby and 8 did everything together too. Part of me is missing now. I'm struggling to transition to doing everything by myself. A lot of emptiness... The only thing different for her and me is... Money! Financial security. I have none. So that is a big stress on me. I pray for God to sustain me and give me my needs.
I'm sorry for your loss. Will pray for you.
Gussy Gatlin i am so sorry for your loss I am sure that pain will always be there 2 some degree
Having said that he was able 2 have a life most dream of. I can say as a nurse, pediatric specialty after 42 yrs & counting, I can name so many children whose family would gladly have given all so their child could have had just one more day. They have 98% of my heart the rest with Patrick & others who have reached the end of a horrific battle as well. As an adult who may or may or may not be feeling what they claim to be feeling their emotions r no less painful but the children & their siblings, parents,friends,cousins, us nurses etc. .makes it hard 4 me to want 2 hear adults who were blessed with reaching adulthood, with having a family, a true love whine about a death of someone no matter star or not who had all that time on earth. To those of u who will have a fit over my comment, u do not see us nurses or families of children who did not get a chance 2 grow up to have their first kiss 2 have a career or public career an actor so many could enjoy them as we did Patrick & I am not taking anything away from him & his immediate family or fans it just sickens me 2 see someone milk a death sell his personal items without his family even getting a chance 2 keep something special 2 them. If what many who knew him say is true. If not I apologize but I do not take back my words a childs chance for one more birthday his family planning a 2 yr old party firsts day of school, sweet sixteen, drivers. Lic worry. Etc. in comparison her milking tears and money from his fans disgust me. Let Patrick rest in peace and respect if he wanted a book written he had plenty of time to have done so, at least one sharing his illness when he was still fighting it, he could of done it as he went and I do not believe she needs money, she already has a new income from a husband, may she experience exactly what she gave to with Patrick. With the horses she could easily made a living doing that or teaching dancing, or any number of jobs with all the reach of Patrick & his family. Again I hope I am wrong as I have heard some really harsh things from her treatment of Patrick, hope not but if u want to help others with his disease, start with children then adults, share it none kept for profit none. I do hope for all of sadden by his passing 2 remember him with love and think about what he would have wanted, to start with the kids, then younger people. His heart was one 2 cherish not sure about his ex wife she is now moved on to a completely different life & man. I wish her the best Meanwhile please consider the babies,children,teenagers, & young adults by donating to the official website or to St. Jude's Children Hospital they will send u whatever booklets info u want. So let Patrick be remembered for his heart and start a donation account to be set aside 4 research & families dealing with similar issues any kind of cancer. Bless u Patrick 4 all the joy, kindness and fun u brought our way. I hope after we are all gone, there will remain a funding set up in his name. Please think of the kids, research and families of the children who know only heart ache always. Thanks
She is mean...
Why?
I really loved this until its been said by patricks family that she cheated on him more than once.
Diana Smith I heard the same..while he was sick..
