Cancer survivor Suzanne Somers made some harsh comments about how cancer medications were responsible for killing Patrick Swayze, and not the disease itself — and now she says she regrets those remarks.
“I should not have said what I said,” Suzanne tells Extra.
When asked if she believed Patrick would have survived if he hadn’t undergone chemotherapy, Suzanne says, “I don’t know what Patrick chose, I don’t know anything about it.”
Suzanne goes on to reveal that she’s tried to make amends with the Dirty Dancing star’s loved ones.
“I apologized to his family, I apologized to his brother — I’m really, really, really sorry because everyone, when they’re choosing treatment for cancer, makes the best decision they can.”
At the same time, Suzanne, who overcame breast cancer 10 years ago with hormone therapy and nutrition, is still a vocal advocate of alternative treatments, especially after she was misinformed and told she had relapsed last year.
“The oncologist comes in and says, ‘You got cancer. It’s everywhere — I’ve never seen so much cancer.’”
As a result of the misdiagnosis, Suzanne wrote Knockout, a compilation of interviews with doctors who prompted Somers to pen her new book, “Knockout,” which compiles interviews with doctors who champion cancer prevention techniques.
Suzanne’s scheduled Book Interview on the Larry King Live show Monday night at 9 PM was cancelled and replaced by Wolf Blitzer with nonsense content. The cancelled Larry King Show with Suzanne included two of the doctors from her book, Stanislaw Burzynski and Nicholas Gonzalez. Wolf says the show has been rescheduled for Friday night at 9 PM.
Why the cancellation? I suspect the networks are being pressured by the cancer establishment not to air the show. I seriously doubt the show will air at all.

Somers should retire from television and stop wasting her fans money on her bogus infomercials. She has more plastic surgery, make-up, and air brushing applied to her face and body which continues to mislead everyone including teenagers who are made to believe they can look like her. She’s rich which makes every trick available to her. She had no right making that comment about Patrick, and she thinks like many famous people that her opinion is the right opinion. Let’s see a real photo of Somers in a Bikini with no mkae-up. Next thing she will be marketing is a puke bag.
Obviously, you are nothing but a jealous idiot. Did I mention \IDIOT\
It’s been said that celebrities are narcissist.
But what about Tourette. I’m seeing more and more stars obviously suffering from that.
Suzanne Somers is experiencing what all progressive pioneers historically go through: dismissive ridicule at first, anger next, followed by fear of losing old establishment, until it’s finally accepted as common knowledge. She more than likely is much more interested in what she is discovering (along with so many other holistic medical professionals) that this type of typical response doesn’t bother her too much, at least it hasn’t seemed to slow her down any.
