If you ever wanted to get to know Patrick Swayze better, read this book. He takes us through his childhood, including stories of being beaten up in school because he was a ballet dancer. To look more macho, Patrick took up football. This had disastrous consequences and on Halloween night in 1970, Patrick's knee was destroyed in a football game. He fought his way back through tremendous pain, but this injury inevitably destroyed his hopes of becoming an Olympic gymnast and a professional ballet dancer. He refused to let these disappointments stop him, and worked on becoming an actor. At one point, Patrick and Lisa were completely broke. If it were not for an orange tree in the backyard of their apartment complex, they would not have had anything to eat. Patrick also tells of the tragedies in his life which include losing his father to a heart attack at age 57, losing his older sister to suicide in 1994, and losing their baby boy in the third month of pregnancy. Much of this book focuses on his career. He and Lisa did not originally like the Dirty Dancing script, but they made changes to it and really liked the finished product. There were also stories of how he and Jennifer Grey did not initially get along. What puzzled me was that even after Patrick achieved fame and fortune, he still struggled with depression. Although he was enormously talented, he felt inadequate. Working cheered him up, but he would get depressed when the filming was over. He worried a lot about being taken seriously as an actor, and about future roles. Drinking was his way of dealing with it, and that caused problems in his marriage. There was not too much focus on the cancer. He was so determined to beat it on some days, and was too tired on other days. One thing that rings true in this book is that Patrick and Lisa were soulmates who truly needed each other. Patrick was a great guy, and everyone will miss him. Rest in peace, Patrick.
