Jade Goody.

Is anyone following her as she lives her last moments?
I don't really know what she did besides Big Brother, but seeing her with cancer breaks my heart.

For those who don't know who she is, she's a British Reality Star. She was diagnosed with Cervical Cancer this summer, and it's spread. I think it's gone to her lungs, liver, and I know it definitely went to her brain. This is the end - she's got days to live. She's going blind, bald, and pale. She's also got two little boys, aged 6 and 7 I think.

Breaks my heart. I hope her passing is quiet and peaceful.

Yeah I have read about her. Just so tragic.

I just feel for her boys and her husband. It has got to be so heart-wrenching watching someone just waste away.

 

[chisnpeke]

I read about her. It's sad.

 

[CrazyChik]

I'm fed up of reading about her.
I don't like her, I wouldn't wish cancer on anyone and I think it's very sad that she's going to die and leave behind two young boys but she still annoys me.
Her husband wouldn't be my pick of people to leave my children with either, he's out on bail to be with her while she dies before supposedly going back in after punching yet another person.

I'm sorta fed up of hearing about her.
I mean, it's sad that she's got cancer and all. And that she's leaving her two sons.
But.. do the press realise that there are waaaay more people with cancer?
I do, however, hope she passes peacfuly. I'm sure she went home today so that she could die at home.

But you could also say that all the press she has gotten has encouraged more young women to go for pap smears and the like.

You'd need valid evidence to back up your theory.

 

[princesskelz]

i feel bad for her
i always get on Perez Hiltons website to see if he updates on her.
i hope she finds peace some day.

That's true. I guess it just brings more awareness to the subject. If people refuse to take care of themselves they are just going to stay that way. People know smoking kills you but they still do it. I think there are always going to be people who don't properly take care of themselves and no amount of people dying will make them change, unfortunately.

 

[Babyjustrun]

I see her on Perez a lot.
I don't know much about her, but I do feel for her and her family, despite what kind of people they may or not be.
No kids should have to say goodbye to their mother so early in life.

It's not theory, it's fact.

It looks like Jade Goody’s cervical cancer bombshell has raised awareness among women, for it has led to thousands more women getting tested. Since the former Big Brother star was diagnosed in August, smear tests have gone up about 20 percent.

The increase in cervical cancer tests was compared to the “Kylie Effect”, which saw breast cancer awareness raised after the singer fell ill.

At Sheffield Primary Care Trust 750 women a day now have tests — up from 250 a week before the news of Goody’s fate.

And Southwark PCT in south London saw a 25 per cent increase in smears.

Cancer Research UK’s Liz Woolf said: “Jade’s story made a lot more people seek information about cervical cancer.”

Yeah I've read about her on Perez Hilton.
It's so sad
