London, Jan 26 : Patrick Swayze, who is facing the battle of his life against cancer, is refusing to give up as long as his wife is by his side.

The `Dirty Dancing' star has had to face the prospect of only having months to live.

The cancer is said to have spread to his lungs from his pancreas, and a

week ago he was taken to hospital with pneumonia.

However, the 56-year-old says that he won''t give up without a fight.

"Watch me. You watch what I can pull off," the Mirror quoted him, as saying.

He said from his hospital bed last week: "My greatest source of strength is Lisa and the angels I have around me. We''ve both become much stronger over the course of the last three months. I''m just happy I''m alive and plan on continuing to stay that way." (ANI)
